Believe

we all fear

becoming

what we fear

~

vulnerable

~

trust

our ignorance

in love

~

be still

keep dancing

life will not always

make sense

~

learn to love

our contradictions

we’re nothing

we’re everything

~

find comfort

in doubt

sometimes

it’s the only light

we’ll ever have

“I learn by going where I have to go” ~ theodore roethke

Why God

we’re educated

to question, wonder

examine critically

~

no longer fearing

hidden truths

behind sacred words

~

I’m learning

to love compassionately

to accept

what I don’t understand

~

wide open

my heart, my eyes

acknowledging

my blindness

~

and that

is okay

~

I’m doubting my way to salvation

~

Why God

The Great Depression

born in uncertainty

~

a phenomenon

giving rise to fascism

destruction

a second world war

~

the despair felt

by many

never left

throughout their life

~

those years

left a mark

taking generations

to live down

~

I’m listening dad

I’m starting to understand
