What the waves say.

I stood mesmerized,

unable to look away

from the waves

that crisscrossed before me,

greeting each other

and drawing diamonds

in the water.

I stood on the sandbar

entranced by the waves

that came in sideways

upon hitting the sand.

The ocean – as if it

didn’t already

call to me,

had something new to say.

I turned a full 360°

a few times just to

take it all in.

This was a

moment of

bliss,

perfection,

peace,

hope,

beauty,

belonging

and

wholeness –

that, quite honestly,

I struggle to articulate.

In my heart,

I heard:

“This is a picture

of what it looks like

to be who you are,

right where you are.

Trust me to lead

you to where you

need to be –

strength,

beauty,

and finesse

will follow.

This?

This is a picture

of what is possible

when you pursue me and

the passion

and purpose

I have put within you.”

I will carry this

with me always.

And I hope you will, too.
