Risky Business

Be present
accept your surroundings
surroundings inside and outside
inside your heart, mind and body
   your workplace, your home and your safe place
outside your body’s skin, the walls of your home
   on the sidewalk, on the street or across the miles

Be present
for when acceptance comes
recognition of holes or cracks
rises gently into view
creating a longing for change ~
courage and willingness for change 
risks growth on the inside and the outside.

“The future happens. No matter how much we scream.”
~ Derek Walcott, The Odyssey
