Alone I Stand

Alone I Stand.
Captured by reality..surrounded by so many, yet alone I stand. In a world, that will turn it's back in an instant, I stand alone, gaining strength and resistance. I come before you as a woman strong, proud, and true. With two babies on my hip, lugging diaper bags, and purses, a laptop, and the latest copy of Cosmo, alone I stand in a room full of millions. I seperate myself, to only keep myself sane. I'm content in my quiet time, where I can reflect on my day. As I lay the babies down to rest, while singing sweet lullabyes...I turn, shut the door, exit the room, to stand alone, and feel every breath, every shutter of pain, but most importantly every sense of JOY I have received from the day. Then, I pray. Praying for forgiveness, and my blessings, and for all the ones I love, even if they have hurt me. By me being able to stand alone....I.....am....FREE.

Inspire


Life can shrink you down to size if you let it. Inch by inch, day by day. Repetitiveness.  Always striving for more. Always trying for something. Evervesent, ever changing. Multiple layers, scratching the surface one by one. Are we getting anywhere? Maybe, hard to tell right now.  The time comes when we must figure it out, when we must organize our thoughts, and articulate what it is that yearns in the deepest part of us. Get it all the way right, before branching out, and stepping out on faith, once again.  Try as we may, to change, to make a better day for us, and our kin. Lets begin to begin again, and try a little, or a lot harder each new day. Knowing all along its up to US, and only us to create a world within ourselves that will win. That will strive, that WILL try, and WILL make a better life. The BEST life we can possibly live.
