the peace offered to you
is more than the time between wars
the kindness offered to you
is a gift to be given away
the compassion offered to you
is not only for the deserving
the hatred offered to you
is an opportunity to soften your heart
the suffering offered to you
is an opportunity to know the world
the silence offered to you
is a time to look within
the forgiveness offered to you
eases two hearts
the love offered to you
will move you closer to your heart
moving closer to your heart
you move closer to who you are

Thank you, my friend. I appreciate it. I get to thinking that about all I have is my words so I’d better be sincere with them.

Beautiful. Someone needs to dwell on the glory of us. You know, while I torment us with doom and gloom. 🙂 Love you

When narcissists are stomping around, ego-trippin allover the place I want to stay mindful of how true we can be if we don’t get sucked in. We do need to call them out for sure. That’s where you come in. 🙂 I love you too, Nashville.
