I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

Of course this is the now,
what else would you expect?
Where else could you be?
Geographically, yes, there are
options, or there were. But
you, in a clear or clouded
wisdom, either by choice or
circumstance, ended up here,
in the now.
Right now.
There was then, but that was
yesterday, and it is old or it is
behind you. Yesterday is the
same for everyone, but today
could be different for you, as
can be tomorrow.
Where you are now was once
what lay ahead. How did you
get here, and can you even
remember why? Where will
your tomorrow take you, can it
change if you ask yourself why?

Be honest.
Speak your truth, and
say what you mean.
It is easy to say, but
can be hard to do.
It’s difficult at times to
put the right words
into the proper context,
or speak freely.
Or honestly.
Often there is concern
over how you will be
seen, or heard, or believed.
Truth is, at times, not
easy to hear, and it can be
even harder to say.
Sometimes you might feel
it is not enough, because
the truth can be so simple.
Honest.
You may feel that
truth is not enough, but
it is everything.
The hard truth can hurt,
the whole truth can be
hard to swallow, and
the real truth can heal.
Be truth.
Breathe your truth.
Breathe honesty,
and
breathe it honestly.
