You're Not Alone

We feel alone,
unconnected,
sitting side by side with others and yet invisible
as if we're still an unpopular kid in high school.
An autonomous society,
where a few choose to speak,
but



You don't have to raise your hand or wait to be called on.


God will come alongside you,
to pick you back up:
He's there in a stranger's handshake,
the hug of an acquaintance,
a coworker to share lunch with;
the prayers within a congregation,
a gentle breeze,
the chatter of squirrels,
the bird song in trees.

Loneliness is real;
but, it's also just a state of mind.
It can be overcome.
Invest in others,
and you'll see,
you'll be surrounded by people
as often as you want to be.

Perhaps, there's no one to share your bed with;
but, sex is over-rated,
a brief release.
Companionship can be found in other ways;
and, safety in numbers too.

From roommates of the human variety
to fur-babies;
you're choosing your invisibility,
a victim-hood status,
rather than solving the problem.
There's always a way,
you just have to 



One step in front of the other and so the journey of a thousand steps begins.
Where your road will take you? 
Only God knows;
but, subscribe to this site, take my hand, and see:
We're all pilgrims of promise
finding our way back home.

Victims no more,
claiming our own destinies.
Finding those with kindred spirits, 
using our gifts
to help others find theirs;
an uprising beyond compare.
Because we weren't born
to lay down and die!
We were born to take over
roles within history,
born to love unconditionally;
and, to play our parts to their fullest extent.
Heaven-sent,
to others that need us most, 
until we find ourselves on the other-side of the veil



Don't waste your gift, 
don't waste your voice, 
live out loud!
That's part of why we're all here:
Whatever healthy thing in your life sets you apart,
makes you shine; 
whatever you've been complemented on in the past,
do more of that!
