Challenge
Words to be Said.
Are you insecure or self-conscious? Scared or anxious? Nervous or worried? Melancholy or devestated? If the answer is yes to any of these, I want you to imagine someone who said yes to all the same questions. Someone who has all the same fears. I want you to write exactly what you think they need to hear, as what you want to tell them. I want you to enter that into this challenge (though that is optional). Then, I want you to go to the nearest mirror and read these words out loud to the person they were ment for- you.

Give ourselves grace ...
You fear you’ll forget your name,
walk alone,
drop the game.
You know you’re looking out,
searching long,
filled with doubt.
Anxious you’ll erase your face?
Start again,
lose this race?

It’s nice to forget your name,
walk alone,
drop the game.
It’s fine to be looking out,
search e’er long,
sate your doubt.
I like to erase my face,
start again,
end this race.
I find I can supplement,
give my all,
time well spent.
(If we’ll only give ourselves the grace
we give others in our race to place ...)
