Here, in this place, on this island, you can give all that you are.
Give every particle of doubt, self-hate, depression, sorrow, fear, or resentment to this island. Shed every poison, tragedy, mishap, every horror to this earth.
Because this island, this earth, this molten lava, this rock, this vast pacific ocean, this changing weather, this stellar sunshine, will take it.
This whole, entire world will take it.
And this world will transform it.
And this world will bloom. This world will laugh and shine in flowers, with exotic plants, with unimaginable color, with wonderful people.
Take note. And you too, give this world every quark, every proton, every neutron, every atom, every molecule of what you know is calm, happiness, peace, smiling, laughter, shining, of love.
Do it now. Because no matter what it is, it is what you have to give.
Give ALL that you are.
You are so awesome and there is no better gift than to see my son so happy, so serene...I think you have found your sanctuary...love you and miss you soon much!!!;)
ReplyDeleteHadn't looked at this in way too long, so glad you are happy and at peace there, Taylor. Things here are way crazy at the moment, we lost the rebid for AEP, so all our hard work for the past year was not rewarded Sigh... Reading your posts makes me want to visit Hawaii, a place I have yet to see. Bill was there on his senior class trip many moons ago. Miss you, however, not sure any of us will be working for the company in a few months so we will join you as an ex-employee. Stay happy and keep in touch.
