Lighten Up!

How hard it seems to love ourselves,

We see so much in others,

But not in what we are.

Today I see much deeper

Into the things that flow,

From the opening heart

I carry,

Ever more lightly,

Day by day

Inspiration / Author Note

There is a quietness to the experience of joy. It is the effervescence of the excitement that we sometimes mistakenly label as joy. It has depth, and in that deepness is peace.
