There is a special song meant just for you and one intended only for me. No one else is experiencing what I am experiencing nor does anyone else think, feel or love like me; or like you. Through my life’s journey, a song is being written. The power of this song resonates through me and echoes in my mind when I need to hear its reassuring beat.nn Our life song has a perfect melody and its rhythm is calibrated with our souls. We hum the lyrics on the days we are happy and on the days we are sad and on all the other days in between. We have memorized its cords and can play the notes by memory. Our life song is our anchor when we don’t know what to do, but we know we don’t want to give up.nn Word by word and verse by verse, my life song is being written across my heart. The words are becoming easier to find and their meaning is clearer. My life song is on the end of my lips waiting to be heard. This song will be with me forever – in this world and in the next.nn My life songnn Deep in woods of loblolly and oakncupped hands trap fireflies and then open to show freedom.nThis child needs to be rescued, too.nWhat keeps him from freedom are the things no child should see.nn Waiting, hoping, feeling less than good enoughnI’ve told myself for too long.nIt’s time to be me, to be real, to live my life and to never look back.nThere is still plenty of time to look ahead and believe.nFaith will get me there.nThere is still time for the child in me to be free.nThere is still plenty of time left for me.nn In this crowded world there is still a plan.nHis work is not over and I stand readynfor the next stroke, gentle adjustment and delicate touch.nWorking on me is not a job, it is a joy.nOne I’m learning to share, too.nn Waiting, hoping, feeling less than good enoughnI’ve told myself for too long.nIt’s time to be me, to be real, to live my life and to never look back.nThere is still plenty of time to look ahead and believe.nFaith will get me there.nThere is still time for the child in me to be free.nThere is still plenty of time left for me.nnLove grows in my heart and I share it graciouslynwith the child who never received a mother’s loving touch.nI now watch him play, chase fireflies and believenthere is still plenty of time left for him andnthere is still plenty of time left for me.nn nnWhat are some of the words to your life song?
