I Found Peace

Sometimes, the "right way" just escapes us completely. Where should I go?
A dear friend once told me, "If you can't do 'The Thing'...do the next best thing. Take the next step on the path."
We have big dreams...or maybe we're not even sure what our dreams our but we just know we want this life of our to hold meaning...somehow. Well, this can cause us to hold high expectations of ourselves. Often times, they can be so high that they are unrealistic...it's not that they are unachievable but that the way we want to achieve them is not considering in the effort and time it will actually take.
Having high intentions are not un-useful when we factor in that time and effort will be needed to complete it. Sometimes it happens quicker than we expect...sometimes it's a slow brew.
When we don't know where to turn, sometimes it's just the act of turning...turning with the intention of whatever our heart is longing for.

Can we be comfortable not "knowing"? Relaxing into and trusting...How profound that can be. Ask, ask, ask...don't be afraid to ask. Ask for the little signs and then watch. Record it...listen to everything.  

How did I know you were real?
Just as I know I am real.
How did I know our love mattered?
Because it does. There are no doubts. This love is unchanging.
I found peace
I found peace
I found peace
I didn't even care about it
Why would I? I loved the burn
It's what I yearned for
Nothing else but the burn
Let's me burst into those flames

I didn't even know I was longing for you, lovely one
There was a silence which didn't haunt
Clarity
Smooth breaths
I am left unafraid
I've never felt this way
Never knew I could
Never knew I even wanted to
Your smile is sincere
I laugh and there is nothing holding me back
Why wouldn't I be in love with everything?
Why wouldn't I be thankful for everything?

This isn't mine
This isn't mine
For I don't know where I end and you begin
This light will bring hope to the brother's and sister's
I can't keep it in, any longer
You all must know
What I've always known
This isn't going to drown us
We're flying
We're all flying!
It just isn't going to stop, keeps going
It's opening up the gates, now
Don't stop
You're almost there,
Don't stop!
It's breaking the barriers
We can't run away because we're ALIVE
Live Live Live
It's NOW

We're opening up,
We're breaking free
None of us can see
It's all about your soul
And me
Take this truth and transform it
