Not cracked, shattered or ruined
But pierced by the light of understanding
That a sudden direction change
Has happened,
Catching me by surprise.
I bow my head in submission,
With hands held out expectantly
To receive the courage to carry on
With the most vital part of
this human experience…
Forging my soul
To surpass in excellence
Everything less than divine.
