There are days when nothing seems right. When every shell you pick up on the winding shore is broken; when the silken treasure slips through your fingers too quickly; when comforts are empty and the world is noise. On those jagged edged days, when the wind is screaming for a reason only she understands. And you find yourself all alone.
My fellow Steemit, turn your face to the stars .
There is goodness in the world that even the river of tears cannot erase.
There is love in the world that the numbed armies of fear cannot destroy.
Sometimes that goodness is everywhere apparent. It pours from the heart of every moment. From the light of every smile.
On those soft days, love hides in the eaves to drop like sweet honey on your forehead and sings her lifting lullabies in the arms of the winds.
But on some days, beloved. On days like today…
We need to look, to see. So turn your face to the stars.
Even when she is nowhere to be seen.
Go inside yourself. Find a speck, a splinter of beauty to be grateful for. ‘
yes’, the day has worn you. And ‘yes’ our mistakes have been so many.
But say ‘thank you’ anyway.
Take account of all that is in your possession. A mind. A heart. A body.
A life that breathes, even if for just one more day.
Now count the eyes that have smiled at you on your wild journey,
The hands that have held you tenderly,
The ears that have listened,
The prayers that have been made on your behalf.
And whisper your ‘thank you’ again.
To be continue...
