causes me to ponder:
have I lived it well
thus far?
So many moments,
experiences,
trials, challenges, broken, growth ...
finding, questions, answers, layers peeled,
discovering ...
being.
Some moments -
feel a lifetime away.
Another breathing existence.
Who was that person
mirrored in eyes from photographs?
who I am today.
And then I wonder again:
who is this person today? ...I ask blurred -
aged face, depth stare
from mirror reflection.
Am I who
He
created and wants me to be
and still
become?
Do I live the words
wrapped in flesh
I speak
and those I write-inspired?
I fall hard.
I get back up. Sometimes slower than other days.
But I continue ...
one foot in front of the other.
With Him carrying me
when I can no longer walk.
I lack knowledge of many things in life,
as continued learning daily life-lessons
guide my journey
with wonderment, inspiration, faith, taught-humbled,
endurance.
But what I do know,
I feel,
is the most important, valued,
resilient, immovable.
A life well lived ...
Isn't it a daily continuation of our existence?
I've heard the way to measure it,
is by how one serves others.
How one loves others.
Forgives. Inspires.
Is honest.
A daily walk.
And I hope to continue
walking that path with
His hand in mine.
Well done, good and faithful servant;
thou hast been faithful over a few things,
I will make thee ruler over many things:
enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.
- Matthew 25:23
