Here's a poem I recently wrote: All I can do is pray and trust. When life seems unbearable and the challenges continue to appear, take a deep breath and find your center —because from there you will be able to hear. Suffering creates chaos, disrupts the natural order — clarity becomes fogged by the illusion of the horror. The ego enjoys the disruption, because disruption is followed by distraction. Distraction keeps you isolated, unable to perform any action. Activate your internal compass, thats where you will see, Distracted minds lose time and will never truly be set free. Free from societal constraints that keep us "safe," Free from the suffering created each day, Free from this illusion that has been painted all along, Free from believing you were ever anything other than God. Sometimes I believe there's comfort in the suffering because it's all we've ever known. Sometimes I hear people complaining about their circumstances but they will never let them go. It takes courage to separate yourself from the suffering that has become an inevitable label. But inevitability is just another story they tell you, nothing more than a fable. So while it's seemingly harder to let go and trust in this life, It's the only thing that gives me hope, creates peace in my mind and allows me to believe everything will be alright.

I love this too - so happy you're here!!! How fun is it to learn and grow together through so many different life experiences??
