Reverberate

Dig down as DEEP as you have EVER imagined depths to delve, and you STILL haven't come even CLOSE to reaching the goal.

Patience.
Persistence. 
Step by step. 
The strongest medicine RARELY looks appetizing at first, or even second sight.

Remember the profound chill of darkness?
Remember the honey-sweet light which followed?

Our Ancestors tread these paths TEN THOUSAND times over.
The Ancients walked, unflinching, through HOLY FIRE to come here.
How DARE we doubt ourselves now?

Our Æons-long legacy of ECSTATIC strength will not be shied away from.
We get to trust. 
Our blood, our bones, our Heartbeats know the way.

Together, we gain the strength to STAND, truly alone.

In unison, as ONE.

Reverberating echoes of sufferings past, sing shadowed songs depicting the most fulfilled of futures.

We hold to the faith that a change of plans, shifts the course ever closer to Divine footfalls. 
We hold the hands of strangers and lovers with equal grip.

So.

Letting go is the clearest gift that we ever give our children's children. 
Vulnerability contains our most MONUMENTAL POWER. 
Surrender is our GREATEST TRIUMPH. 
Step by step.

With each sacred breath.

Blessed be.
