I have never seen anyone that carried
the sun or moon on their head,
it must remain above you,
or have I seen anyone that carried
the earth on their hand or head,
it must lie beneath your feet,
neither have I seen anyone that caught
the wind with their hands,
Oh no!!!!,it must always be elusive.
Nor have I ever seen anyone
that runs faster than their shadow,
you are both inseparable.
As you talk about life,
so is death waiting
in a world only slightly beyond.
Though a man must die
before the son becomes a man,
I have not seen a man who had
a son before his father,No!!!
Sometimes there are things
unspeakable that can happen to you,
shocked,amazed
and perplexed your spirit,
make you feel hopelessly helpless.
Know there is absolutely nothing
you can do about it because
all of it comes to make up
the textures of your life.
Accept it,change it in order to Heal,
grow and to get on with your life.
You must know that
where pain is inevitable,
hope is our assurance always.
Know It can only get better with time.
