Every now and again
Life circumstances line up
A great wall of water
A perfect storm
That knocks you down
And carries you away
You and the balls
You have been juggling
Faith, hope, and love
Now amidst all the wreckage
You find a way to stand up
And breathe
You start your search
Looking for those balls
To throw into play again
Without them you
Really can’t live
For very long

Let’s Grow Love
When the seams of life unravel
When fog blurs vision
The way forward is obscured
When positions are hardened
Anger flares
Resolution and reconciliation
Seem millions of miles away
Remember
The greatest of all is love
It is the pulse that runs the universe
Slow down and listen
Feel it running through
Your veins
Ask the question –
What does love look like?
Give imagination free reign
Wait for your thoughts to form
Then get ready
Bring a friend, sister or brother
Go do that good
You are inspired to do.

Be Your Best
Be your best
Come alive
Breathe in life
Inspire me
With your love
With your courage
Be your best
Find a way
Show the way
I will follow
Be my best
Together we
Sow the seeds
Of love and courage
