decided to try something new
go someplace different
it was good
he spoke
i sat
hardly breathing
speechless
he had touched me
his words
riddled with that strong accent
ringing in my ears
his talk seemed to apply directly to me
he said i could find rest
i could find comfort
if i wanted it
he said we all have troubles
we are all struggling
with different things
he told a story about a man who never brought his day's troubles into his home because they had nothing to do with his family
maybe i could try to do that
leave my anger
leave all that stuff
outside before i go in
and not burden people who already carry burdens of their own
he said stop counting things you want
things you need
things you want to change about yourself
he said be thankful for the things you have
things you like about yourself
things you don't want to change
he had to list things for me
just so i could realize
good
Wow..... i like this one.. and it seems like you got a lot out of this guys talk. maybe i could use some of that.. anyway.. it's a good one.
