Jotting from my journal. Day #155 of (mostly unedited) daily writing/sharing

Like the Ocean

I used to think I needed to make myself bigger
to hold it all—the beautiful and the brutal,
the everything in between—

I thought I needed to keep up with the relentlessly 
fast pace of this rapid-fire world—

one moment with the morning breeze, 
all of me at ease 
and then, the headline that brings me to my knees.

Now I see that I can meet it, whatever it is, 
say hello, bow even, 
but I do not need to carry the heavy—

I can let the wave come, 
let it go, let it come,
let it go.
