To the Child within

To the children within...

Dear child within..

thank you for all that you have been. It was you that faced the difficult circumstances and with them made a web. A web called a journey connecting the many days without end. In this web made of strength you desired to catch me in case I went off and left you there. And if i did it would always be there.. waiting.. for me to catch me.

As i bypassed the web i found myself in a space of despair forgetting why i was here. Hoping that someday someone would find ME here.

As the days passed and I watched the people living day to day i realized that living had been replaced with death.

I watched the walking dead making broken webs.. what were they trying to catch?

It was then that i realized we had abandoned ourselves.. in the midst of it all.. to not feel any pain not knowing that we created more pain.

It was you that i needed to catch... and so I wondered how to make this happen..

I then remembered the web that i had bypassed.. the one that you made.

I then knew what to do!

I closed my eyes and placed my arms around my chest.. i then allowed myself to fall in pure TRUST that I'd fall into the web.

I opened my eyes slowly and found you there. With open arms beside me.. waiting for me.

You were never lost or wounded... you were just waiting with open arms knowing that one day I'd find you again.

Thank you dear child for staying as you are.. a golden heart sparkling... regardless of how far we have been apart..

I'll never forget what you told me... That without pain and separation we wouldn't know LOVE. And only in this LOVE could we rescue ourselves from ourselves.
