Emotions…

This is a poem I found that I wrote June 2, 2014. I remember sitting downtown by the river thinking and I started writing….

Emotions

Like flowing water my emotions move effortlessly

No direction, no destination…wherever the wind takes me

Why do I allow the high and low tides control over my movement?

One push in one direction can leave me lost

But maybe I’ll find my way…

Like flowing water my emotions want a stopping point

Someone to scoop them up in a bullet proof container, protecting them from the world

Will someone find me?

Protect me from the wind,

The tides

The pollution

The hurt

The pain

The insecurity

Will someone keep me safe? Don’t let me break.

No! You must protect yourself.

Find your own way. Create your own direction.

Don’t fight the wind and the tides, take what they offer and learn from it…GROW!

Surrender to the unknown.

God has you in HIS container

That alone should bring peace to your wandering emotions.

God loves you!

Go be great on purpose!
