Reborn

Celebrate the solitude. It knows your name.
It baths you in the moonlight and you dream.
It allows yearning, knowing what you will and will not do.
The shadows of your heart slip away into the past.Longing becomes familiar.

Step into the mirror.

You become -
the one incomplete
the one completed
the one blind
the one all seeing

Waking you are at the end of your past.
Be happy.
Realize happy is desired.
Embrace what you do not know. Run along the path and face the sun.
New, rejoiced, smiling - reborn.

Do your best, think the best and let go.

    "Embrace what you do not know. Run along the path and face the sun."

    Wow. That needs to be a bumper sticker on my brain. I am going to memorize that.
