I will not die an unlived life

I will not live in fear

of falling or catching fire.

I choose to inhabit my days,

to allow my living to open me,

to make me less afraid,

more accessible,

to loosen my heart

until it becomes a wing,

a torch, a promise.

I choose to risk my significance;

to live so that which came to me as seed

goes to the next as blossom

and that which came to me as blossom,

goes on as fruit.

~Dawna Markova

sometimes it’s all about simplicity…..

inquiry for today~ and when did you forget how to go on?

what we never knew…..

In creating a place of honor for every issue, and every experience,

we create a different form of power

that is rooted in the whole truth of who we are.
