reality of growing up
trying to collect my thoughts. it was difficult. very awkward. not a little girl anymore.
struggled with a neutral face. careful. part of me didn't want to listen. i saw it coming. guess i didn't want to. tightness in chest. ached as you broke. thousand thoughts. ten different ways of saying it. none of them right. i guess i know you too well. is it my place to say it? dare i risk it? so i just listened. held your hand. and prayed.
beginning to see just how hard things can be. how much we have to let go. the importance of exercising patience and grace. how much time we spend hoping and praying that they'll rise up and take the lead. mm... wish it was my problem and not yours... just so you didn't have to carry the weight. because its easier to trust Him with my own problems? mmm... it shouldn't be that way...mmm something to work on.
praying for you. leaving it in His capable hands. love.
