Growing Pains (5/23/09)
I try to retreat back into my shell, only to find I have outgrown it - it no longer fits.  My head pokes out; I can't seem to get it in any farther.  My supposed need for safety and security keeps me stuck in one spot, afraid to move as fear smiles at my cowardice, yet the realization that my shell can no longer hold me stirs up a soft breeze of courage - nothing to harsh but gentle strength that flows through me.  I can no longer pretend that I am something other than what I have come to know.  Hiding is no longer an option for when I search my soul, there is nothing to hide from.  "Trust" is whispered as I close my eyes and feel the truth that I have run from all of my life.  There is nothing off-limits, nothing is impossible, it is all there, just waiting for me to reach out and grab it.  There are no time constraints, all is waiting for me and will be there when I am ready and yes, I am ready, I am so ready.  "Come to me softly, there is no pain in love, just pure joy.  Let your heart smile."
