Seeing the Light

It feels sometimes like life is one long sentence that seems to carry no full stop.
 You then begin to wonder
 at the wisdom of some of your choices
just when you're ready to stop, 
you hear a voice telling you, 
you're approaching the light.

Nothing is forever. 

IS this  a positive or  negative?
Change is good whether you get what you wanted or not.  
It's good to approach your challenges with the knowledge that 
change is just around the corner.
 This change that will ultimately lead to where you want to go.

Now should we wait to reach the light
To live? 
The light is ready to be lit no matter the situation. 
A smile to block out the pain,
 a word of kindness to erase a wound 
thoughtfulness and love to cure all incurables. 
These are all 
perfect ingredients to see the light,
 to be in the light. 

When you decide not to hold on for dear life,
 maybe then you can live life until you can't. 
It never pays to stop 
to wonder what road will lead to success, 
that vision has been
 compromised.
 Better to be led by the light. 
Close your eyes,
 see and trust what you cannot see
 with your eyes wide opened.

 The less you know of those dark places, 
the more likely it is to feel 
the power of the sunshine 
 the wonder of the moon light. 
To never wonder at miracles
 likely to happen when you stop
 looking for all that is wrong and celebrate
 that one good thing.

Just think,

 this life will never be yours again. 
This smile last for only a while, 
these hands can only flow for a moment. 

Stand straighter
 step strong,
 move with fluid movements.
 celebrate this one good life.

Feel the wind 
lift you higher 
and no matter what,
 don't look down. 

Your destiny does not lie in looking down 
but flying higher and higher. 
No one said the flight would be smooth. 
Ride the wave 
of the turbulence 
laugh in the face 
of storms past,
 present 
and those to come.

Allow the wonder of finally seeing the light to be 
the eighth wonder of the world. 

Better yet make it the only wonder that counts. 

It is hard to begin, 
but once you have started to see, 
you can glimpse the beauty that was already there. 
When you have lost much,
 put the brightest  and loudest colors on what you have left.

Those are what matter.  

When you finally rest in the light, 
smile, 
you made it. 
Finally, you have seen the light.
