The Ocean Within

To give up on hope is....to give up on life....or ever being joyful again....to stop seeing beauty....to stop creating....
dis-ease in every form....to choose not to see the miracles that are everywhere....

she has been wandering in the desert for a long, long time
when was the last time she drank water
she cannot remember
in fact it has been so long
