In These Settings

Thank You for the messages
Even if they only come in subtle sentences
I will do my best to pace myself
And count my blessings

In these settings
Growth is inevitable
If only I take the time
To awaken, God force that lives inside

We only know
The full consequences of our choices
Long after they are made
To be able to stay sane in the process of living out those decisions
Is an arduous task
But wearing the mask of indecision
Can also take You apart

Go and move
Start new things
And depart
But also contemplate
And remember
Where You came from

A certain kind of powerful humility
Will serve You in the long run
In this life
And the next…
