For you, wondering and restless about why you are in this phase of life.
Can you honestly, with your whole heart,
Today at this moment, take just a second,
To be just glad, joyous, ecstatic,
About who,
About what,
About everything,
You are?
Can you stop looking around, and wishing,
That you could be in his or her shoes,
To get that new job, vacation, spouse,
Look forward, are those things lined up for you?
If they are, then great!
Patience is your best friend as you,
Yes you, prepare to meet these soon,
Keep waiting,
Keep persevering,
Keep praying,
You'll get there.
But don't forget where you are now,
Don't forget the little things that make your day,
The tasks and jobs that keep you busy,
Find the niche in them, and you'll do great.
If they aren't, that's awesome!
Don't sigh heavily and roll your eyes at me,
You're here, now, alive and kicking,
Do everything,
Do prepare,
Do enjoy,
You're getting there.
So now stop, look around you, not at him or her,
But look, watch the orange of the sunset before you,
Marvel at how the wind blows in on a sunny day,
Watch the raindrops paint pictures on your windowsill,
Read a good book and let your imagination sprint forward,
Dance to the tune of a popular song like everyone else,
Write all your thoughts, and catalog them creatively,
This is your season today,
Celebrate it,
Live it,
Love it,
He has placed you here, before He brings you there.
