~ The Universe Knows My Name ~

~ The Universe Knows My Name ~

Where I am at this point
there is not perfection
there is grace
and opportunity to
grow out from my old self
pain and disappointment
chip away the rough
unforgiving parts of my
character , those traits that
have held me back for so long

A fresh calm breeze
brushes cobwebs from my spirit
the door to tomorrow is thrown
wide open and the warm sun
shines, and my pathway is
more clear than ever before

I do not preach there will be
no pain or sorrow
rather a new found ability
to accept certain parts of
life with grace surely not my own

The universe knows my name
in the middle of this life, my life,
I can say, I am happy
