Remember, remember
Not everyone who walked with you in your earlier years
Will have the privilege of finishing this journey with you
Sometimes walking alone is required
How will you learn what you can tolerate and how far you can be challenged
We sometimes sell ourselves short because we drag people with us who should have fallen by the wayside
And no Duwayne we are not talking about raging storms here
Our battles are sometimes fought in silence
Something that is hard to explain to an outsider
Get comfortable with change
Because comfort zones is not a final destination
There is still more to explore
Just like nature has mountains and rivers to take in
Be open to what lies ahead especially the unknown
Because wherever you go in life, the choice is ultimately yours of how you handle it
Just remember, remember to take God with you on *your* journey
*dedicated to D. Claasen*
