When we have the courage
to let go of anything
standing in our way - -
and that includes the dreams
we could make come true
(if we worked hard enough),
those we think
we "should" make come true,
or any other distraction taking our energy- -
and choose instead
to honor
the unique dream our soul wants
more than anything in the world,
life becomes magical. 4

When we have the courage
to see our lives as they truly are,
with open eyes - -
accepting whatever it is we see
with compassion and gratitude - -
that's when things really start to happen. 3

Come to the edge.
We might fall.
Come to the edge.
It's too high!
Come to the edge!
And they came,
and he pushed,

Courage -
to change
the things I can . . .
Serenity –
to accept
the things
and people I can’t . . .
Wisdom -
to know
the difference . . .
It takes strength
to be firm,
It takes courage
to be gentle.
It takes strength
to stand guard,
It takes courage
to let down your guard.
It takes strength
to conquer,
It takes courage
to surrender.
It takes strength
to be certain,
It takes courage
to have doubt.
It takes strength
to fit in,
It takes courage
to stand out.
It takes strength
to feel a friend's pain,
It takes courage
to feel your own pain.
It takes strength
to hide your own pains,
It takes courage
to show them.
It takes strength
to endure abuse,
It takes courage
to stop it.
It takes strength
to stand alone,
It takes courage
to lean on another.
It takes strength
to love,
It takes even more strength
to be loving . . .
It takes courage
to be loved.
It takes strength
to survive,
It takes courage
to live.
It takes strength to admit
that there are things
that are not yours to change . . .
It takes courage
to accept that.
May you have
the maturity
and wisdom,
to know
and understand
these differences.
Serenity comes when you do.
May
the world hug you today
with its
warmth,
and love.
And may
the wind carry a voice
that tells you
there is a friend,
Sitting in
another corner
of the world
wishing you well. 1

As you walk your path of life and love . . .
guide yourself into spiritual depths
Be patient with yourself;
there is no rush when it comes to
advancing on whichever path you have chosen.
We have chosen to come again,
A new day dawns as we awaken
to the marvel of heaven on earth.
We are spiritual beings
wearing human cloaks.
Trust yourself and go within.
As the rambling begins to quiet,
listen to the whispers of your
inner self;
your intuition;
your spirit.
Keep what is good for you.
Love all unconditionally.
One becomes a Way of Life. 2
