What if…

What if…
Doing nothing isn’t an option…
That peace is at the end of a long stretch in the road…
And we must accept that anything can happen, and anything will.

What if…
We view each morning as a new creation…
With no blur in detail…
Full of kindness and calm…
All behind a curtain we have to say “yes” to pass through.

What do you think?
Will you follow me here…
Take a step with me, out of your own mind…
Don’t be afraid…
It’s as easy as turning the page in the morning paper.

Or will you hesitate…
Claiming this is not what the teachings require…
That it is better to stay the same…
That courage is not for the likes of me.

But life is not meant to be a black and white circus…
We should search for the clusters of flowers…
Don’t you want to stop the “what-ifs” that are buzzing like bees in your brain?
Take a step forward, be kind to another, and watch the bees fly away.

I love you,
Annie
