Letting Go

There are times when it is difficult to let go. It is hard to let things go after holding onto them for a long time. When you finally do, it is as though a weight is being lifted off your shoulders.

Sometimes it takes a physical act to symbolize the letting go. It is important to step into a new stage of life, to leave the past behind in order to move forward into your future.

Watchman

I want to be an efficient watchman.
I want to lift people up.
I want to know when people are hurting.
I want to hold people close.
I want to cover them.
I want to listen for the sounds around me.
I want to have my perception heightened.
I want to fight for for what I believe in.
I don't want to sit and watch my life pass me by.
