Writing to Balance

I feel as if I'm processing at hyper speeds that my body cannot keep up with but my spirit says need not worry.

I let go to find this unexplainable peace that to the logical brain makes no sense because one must analyze and understand... 

I begin to see beyond the labels society has tarnished with its judgements and concerns. 

I wonder...

I explore... 

If I stay here too long I fear I cannot be related to as merely a soul. I return to words in an attempt to communicate.

So here I am... writing for the balance of mind, body, soul.

That's why as I sat in tears, lost, confused and feeling like there was no way out of the depression that consumed me a year ago - I reminisced about today.  Today is a beautiful day. A day where I can smile seeing how far I've come. I couldn't see today a year ago, but I held onto the hope that today would mean I made it. I overcame the misery even when I never saw it possible.  The long days and nights with no idea of how you're going to make it somehow lead you to the other side. It's a crazy beautiful thing - the strength of the heart. It's all about perspective ... looking at today a year ago gave me the hope to make it to today where I can look back at a year ago with more strength to take on this ...
