We are walking
The unknown path.

Reaching toward
A bigger dream.

We find our way
Through feeling.

Our destination
is not yet known.

It’s a place,
a world,
a humanity
That has yet
To exist this way.

Though it’s sometimes
hard to tell
And easy to forget
We don’t walk this path alone.

Beyond the veil of fog
That lines this unknown path
Are the faces of all those
Who walked this way before.

Those who dared to believe
In the bigger dream.

They call us forward now
Urging us to trust
In the place we have yet to know.
The place that we’ll call home.

“Busy” happens and
I lose myself
In the tidal wave of
Too much to do
And not enough time.

The only way back is
Through a courageous act
Of resistance.

Dare to stop
Stand still
Deep breath
Lay down
Remember what’s real.

Here and now.
Same as always.

“Busy” was always
Just an illusion.

I found you
in a desert flower
made of paper and paint
high up in the blue sky.

Upon a crumbling world
something deep in me
recognized something in you.

Your eyes
took me home.
Unconditional love
at first sight.

I had no idea
how far I’d fallen
until my heart
escaped my chest.

Entirely exposed
under the night sky.

We were written
in the stars
and grew up together.

Now we wake up
wrapped in one another.

And we’re growing up
all over again.

Heart companions.
A fairy tale
lived in layers.

We were standing on the edge.
An abyss before us.
Our whole lives laid out on the earth.

No turning back
An inevitable end.

We had a choice:
To die before our time
Or abandon the illusion
Live into the moment
Embody the present.

We chose to live
And became an ocean
Expanding beyond everything.

And the end
Became the beginning
And we were free at last.
