Better Late Than Never...

I know we haven't spoken in awhile. And I'm sorry. I know I've been distracted by a lot of things: work, relationships, social engagements, etc. I've been thinking it's been long overdue. Our talk. This talk. 

It hasn't been easy. The Path that's been chosen. It feels as though every turn taken, every choice made feels almost like a mistake at first...especially if there's some kind of pain felt either during and/or after the process. 

What I want to say is this: 
inside every cell in your body resides the deep and inner wisdom required to learn from that which you have experienced. From each moment you have fallen, from every attempt you 'failed' at, from all the times your heart was broken, from those pinnacle minutes where you doubted whether you can continue or not...

Well...

You're still Here. And you are the stronger for it. 

Each and every one of us 
has the power to live 
the Life 
we were meant to Live, 
be the person we were meant to be.

And I can't tell you how proud I am. 
At how far you've come. 
At the beautiful Being you Are. 

And the next time you have one of those nights 
when it's especially quiet and lonesome, 
when you're thinking 
you can no longer go any further...
think of this moment...
the morning 
after an evening of nightmares 
where you dreamed of a Love 
gone away for good...
and you awoke 
to the dawn of a new Day...
and you lived through it.  

You were meant to be 
Here 
so don't squander 
and waste your Time 
with regret or nonsense.  

Live each moment 
of your pure Existence 
with 
Bliss, 
Gratitude 
and 
Wonderment 

for it truly is 
a miracle 
in and of itself.  

This gift we've all been given.  

The Breath of Life...
