God Has Your Back

Some of the most unbearable changes in my life, The ones I went into wearing a warrior’s shield and armor, The changes I resisted so hard I ended up clawing and scratching Kicking and screaming, shrieking, wailing, and keening Were God’s way to get me to a much better place in my life. Sometimes He has to hit us over the head with something To force us to make a change that we have actually internally Been crying and trying and yearning to make, Secretly of course…. Sometimes our soul knew, But we truly did not. I have pooh-poohed the voices of reason. I have disputed things needed to happen. I have begged God to keep things the same, When in fact, in the end, looking back, His way was so much better than my way That I laugh at the energy I expounded trying to keep what was not worth saving. A marriage of one is not a marriage. You deserve much better. You deserve respect and love and hope. You deserve fun and light and playtime. If you spend the rest of your life developing your interests, enjoying your talents and your hobbies, it will be better than what you have now. This is a giant opportunity for you to BE YOU. Savor it.
