On Fulfilling My Life's Purpose

PURPOSE

Somewhere between here and where,
The truth is hushed tonight.
Sometime between now and when,
I know I'll see the light.
Somehow between who and what,
It will fall into place.
Someday between because and why,
You'll see it on my face.

Living Like Sea Glass

Living Like Sea Glass

Right now I live between the waves

Of hope and desperation,

Biding my time amongst the grime;

Dreaming of destination.

My edges are still a bit rough,

Some surfaces unpolished.

I feel as if I've had enough,

Like hope's all but abolished.

But, sometimes, in between the waves,

I catch a glimpse of light -

A sign that timing is divine;

Of nature's perfect sight.

I know someday a storm will come

To push me to the surface

And I'll shine underneath the sun

With perfectly imperfect purpose.

Mind Full vs Mindful

Mind Full vs Mindful
by Rachel Hoyt

Mind Full:
Push-pull.
Want. Need.
Must feed.
Warp speed!

Mindful:
Be cool.
Watch. See.
Love free.
Just be.
