Spinning around, trying to find myself through echolocation
Bouncing my sounds off of everyone else
To find where I am.
Stopping to breathe, heart racing
I realize what feels normal and needed
Is keeping me from the truth of me.
Standing still, emanating sounds
Not for validation
But for gift.
Because I stand in the place of something stronger
Than your feedback.
It is a place of bedrock and identity.
It is where He created me to be.
