Because growth is rarely symmetrical.
Not all our hopes
Can be realized in a single day
And we aren’t always chasing
The same things in this life.
There are seasons
When home is where freedom lives
And others
When home is where your dreams go to die,
Times when you have a lot to offer the world
And others when all have in you
Is space for others to fill,
Days when your throat reverberates with a song
And others when it hurts just to whisper.
Balance is over-rated
Because most of the time
Contrast will do just fine.
