Retrospect In June

There comes a time in our lives when we will see the forest for the tree's. 

The faint, constant voice within our hearts that has beckoned us to turn inward and seek the answers of our soul we will no longer deny. 

We will learn of the place that cradles our aches, our desires, our yearnings and we will begin to free them one by one and they will circle us like leaves blowing in the wind and then they will fly away. 

I always thought that this would be painful, that it would leave a hollow void within me and turn dark.
But I now realize it is me taking a step toward my passions and living my life deliberately rather than letting another day, another dream pass me by. 

And more importantly, I now have room within me for love and for more love and I will give it to others that will have it, freely..... 

It is my gift, it's all I have to give and I believe it is  enough, I really do.
