FORWARD

And so...one thinks of times past,

of mistakes made,

lessons learned,

and growth thus far,

and the realization that all things

come together for the good

of the higher self ~ if only one

can recognize it as such.

Growing pains occur all through

one's life. It is pain from which

growth can spurt ~ if only one

can recognize it as such.

Loss is gain, for the spirit

becomes stronger for allowing

grieving and not hiding

from it ~ if only one

can recognize it as such.

And so...forward...to grow.
