if you are out there today…

April 23, 2009

i just want to say,
if you are out there today
feeling lonely
and wondering what to do
about your writing or your art, or
your spouse or
your singleness, or your kids
or the lack thereof

if you are out there today
doubting
that your story matters or
that you’ll ever get there or
that you can get there from here

if you are out there today
i just want you to know
that you are enough
and i love you
and that together, we will find
the way to be joyfully extraordinary and
all you have to do
to recieve that reality
is to be out there today.

enough.

6 Molly { 23 Apr 2009 at 10:56 pm }: Thanks, I needed that today. As it turns out, job hunting in the middle of a global recession, as an underexperienced student, in a country where you don’t speak the language… well, it can bring you down sometimes. This helped. Thanks.

Peace

16 Gail { 25 Apr 2009 at 12:12 am }: Wow! What a beautiful poem. Thank you for sharing it. It’s so easy to be hard on ourselves, not feel good enough, and to compare ourselves to others perceived success. This is a great reminder that we just need to BE and that is enough. Very good reminder for all of us.
