Hiking Mt. Phillip in the Kennebec Highlands |
From Pain to Power
One little being, part of a whole.
So very small within the bigness of it all,
of us all.
Varied pains of weary wounds
One little being, part of a whole.
So very small within the bigness of it all,
of us all.
Varied pains of weary wounds
continue to heal with the help
of my indomitable will
and the supportive hands
and caring hearts of others.
As that happens I access more and more
a power within that is pure, vibrant and right.
Sometimes I feel it emanating from the
very center of my being -
a strength and sureness that,
as it widens,
quite literally cures my ills.
I learn to more
deeply trust connections
both within and without as I move,
sometimes quickly,
but more often slowly
from pain to power.
Minute and immense
at the very same time.
