The Land of Milk & Honey
In every person’s life, there is a moment in which everything changes
The very foundation of the earth shifts as the tectonic plates feel the need to stretch.
These moments are sometimes disguised as “breaking points”
They are wrapped up the worst of situations and hidden in the deepest of controversies
And just when it feels like you are about to give everything up, boom
The plates shift, yet again, revealing a path never before seen
Revealing an answer, never before heard off
Revealing the land of milk and honey
This is our moment. Our blessing in disguise, if you will.
This is our breaking point,
The very essence of us has been tainted and the very core of our beings, questioned
Here.
Now.
we must endure the most brutal of challenges and hardest of circumstances
We must watch these walls tumble down and let this foundation shatter
For the only reason that the walls tumble- are to reveal the clear blue sky
And the only reason our foundation has been shattered- is make room for the sunflowers
And the only reason this feels like our “breaking point”, is because-- it is
Our old minds are being broken and destroyed and left behind
For our old minds have no place in our garden
We have no room for them next to our sunflowers
We are new
So maybe this is our “breaking point”
Maybe this is the point in which we break the mindset of our old selves and finally let our better selves win
Maybe here
And now
In these beautifully tragic moments
We finally get what we have always wanted
