The Promise
Mentally, emotionally and physically, I feel great! I feel... at peace.
And more to that, I feel tremendous growth. I feel strong. I'm not talking about outward physical strength and aesthetics, but inner strength and beauty.
Everytime I walk pass Church street, I stand tall and proud. Not because I think I'm drop-dead gorgeous, but because my eyes have been opened. It's been a process that begun a few months back when I started to see things in a whole different light. I feel enlightened.
I tried to share. When I told my good friends of the certainty that everything will turn out alright in the end, they couldn't see past my promise: the friend who is battling addiction and alcoholism, the other friend who can not let go of a past relationship, and another who can not bear to be alone. They all couldn't understand.
Initially frustrating, I can only smile and feel assured with my patience. Don't get me wrong, I still have ways to go, but I've come so far already. I've never been so happy and thankful.
The wind is dancing joyfully.
