Pace one day at a time,one moment,one step,no matter how heavy,this is the paceat whichwe must take our lives,moving any fasterleaves us spinning,our wheels sinkingdeeper into the mire,grasping at air,never moving forward
Stress anguish pulls at my chest,it is a persistent tugging,there is painwhat is born in the mindis borne by the bodyI know thisstill I won't allow myselfto know peacethis flaw -one of my many -I would correctby letting gothe weight of those carescreated by my mindthat live beyond my control
Self-Assessment what will I find within,am I even willing to lookbeyond the first layer,to plumb the depthsof my soul,to take on the truthsliving there;what lieshave I allowed myself to believe -have I told myselfin place of harder truth;do I have the courageto find answersto unasked questions,to stareinto my soul
