Say what you wanna say
And let the words fall out...
it's a rare instance when my brain isn't full of damning thoughts, when things feel serene, and i am clear headed enough to think on things in a logical fashion.
i find it difficult often times to freely offer my thoughts to another.
to a page in my journal, or a typed manuscript, it is much easier to let the words fall out.
and usually it seems i am brimming with thoughts, feelings, and emotions that are so achingly heavy, that long to be shared and unleashed beyond the page of a journal or a blog.
it's funny really. i can go through such seasons of dryness and lack of inspiration. sometimes i truly have no words to say. and the more they try to be pried out the clearer it becomes that they just aren't there.
then other times, i can be in a mess of emotions and not quite be able to distinguish one exact feeling.
i am overwhelmed as of late, by a lot of different things. there have been lots of job changing and shifting passions that have gone quietly to rest or come alive with new fervor.
there are relationships ending and relationships being cultivated. it is an interesting place to be in this life of mine. for, i feel...what's the word? i feel...like i am getting...well, in a word, brave.
brave: adjective//feeling or showing no fear: not afraid. example: he was a brave soldier. she gave us a brave smile.
i feel brave in light of or maybe in spite of everything that's happening. everything on a global scale to everything on a personal scale. i wonder at times if it is something about the summer season. something that brings a lightness to once heavy feelings. a certain air that offers a sense of freedom and peace. a desire to get back to basics and find balance.
whatever it is that i can chalk this new found sense of bravery up to, i am grateful. bravery can inspire so much. it can change so much.
i have something to say. and i am not going to be afraid to say it.
honestly, i want to see you be brave.
