I’m more prepared than ever for anything –
the monkey-wrenches,
the last minute jobs,
death cycles,
heartbreak,
grief,
just give to all to me.
I’ll hold up my catcher’s mitt and catch it like a pro.
Frustration,
pain,
and fear do not end,
but the willingness to hold and move through them does –
and THAT you can look forward to,
if you work for it.
I know what to do with those feelings now: all kinds of things.
Can you take it, I ask myself.
Yes, I can. Give it.
