Becoming

Becoming

“For me, becoming isn’t about arriving somewhere or achieving a certain aim. I see it instead as forward motion, a means of evolving, a way to reach continuously toward a better self. The journey doesn’t end.”
~Michelle Obama

You ask me,

‘How is it going to be when you start
out on your path?’

Bless me, if I can console you with
easy answers. But Alas! truth is
neither yours nor mine to make
or mold.

There are going to shouts, cries,
battalions, accusations, and
eventually you will find yourself
standing on threshold having
two choices either to go back
to who you were or to take
another step towards
who you are becoming.

Indeed:

Peace is all about that
one choice you make
for yourself.

Love is all about that
one promise that you make
to other loving souls.

And Power is all about that
one commitment that you make
to yourself.
