True Surrender
Author: Sir Postal's girl
Filed in: joy, learning, surrender, pain, timeI've been in pain for a long time.
I allowed the sorrows of yesterday to take me far away.
But, recent events have shown me the joys of today.
As time passes and the seasons change, it is clear to me
that it is living in today that can bring the peace of serenity.
I've been moving through life blind and purely reacting.
I almost lost myself forever.
But, through the haze of pain I've come to realize
that to have anything worth giving,
I must first belong to myself.
Learning is knowing that
in each day there is beauty,
that in each tear drop there is release,
and that in each studied spiritual moment,
therein lies my inner peace.
For what seemed like forever,
I did not know these truths.
I didn't have a clue.
But, recently, it has become clear to me;
so vivid and true -
Before one can surrender...
To thine ownself be true.
