The Journey Back To Me

The Journey Back To Me

I pity those who have never experienced the reality of epic failure in life.
That season of temporary utter devastation...that breath-taking moment of loss...that mind-altering state of rejection...

That moment when brain and heart agree for once...the mistake is lived out in breathing color... The guilt you bear for not feeling guilty...The shame you wear to cover the nakedness of honest moments of desperation...

All lead to the life-changing revelation that: I am human.
An authentic package of frailty and strength...weakness and confidence...flaws and purity...
All wrapped in one fragile, yet unbreakable package of humanity.

I am perfectly imperfect.
And today....for once....I find no shame in that.

This day is the first step of a journey of a million miles....
It is THE JOURNEY BACK TO ME.
