Becoming

In every moment of every day, I am becoming.

With every thought and every idea, I am becoming.

For every word I write and every answer I seek, I am becoming.

It is a fascinating road I travel. To reach out, to learn, to soak up knowledge and share with those around me. It is why I am here. It is why I am ever changing, ever seeking, ever evolving.

And since today is my 37th birthday, I feel that I am being given a second wind. It’s a feeling that has been building since the beginning of the New Year. A feeling of renewal and strength. A feeling of compassion and understanding. A feeling of transformation.

Because I can finally accept who I AM.

Within my heart of hears, I know me. I know I am.

The wind whispers the encouraging words that escape from my lips. The sun shines on the nurturing and healing touch that emanates from my fingertips. With every breath and every footstep, I am here to lead. Through every smile and every heartfelt laugh, I am here to guide and to teach. In every kind word and every insight shared, I am here to embrace peace and strive for equality.

Today and every day, I will learn. I will ask. I will find. I will know. I will love.

And I am becoming. Always.
