keep building
Mark Nepo tells us to,
‘put down what doesn’t work –
so that we can find what is sacred’.
What worked so well yesterday,
may not work today.
We wear out our structures of known truth,
the frameworks of what we use for living,
for healing.
Let them go,
trust in the new architecture –
modern,
with our personal, classic twist.
We are always becoming.
Watch for the signs of structural failure,
build the new bridge,
delight in this magnificent design,
those amazing cranes hanging in mid-air,
strong, foundational columns,
the rusty, hard rebar of our personal growth,
rising from deep within the waters muddy bottom,
creating the new skyline of your life,
welcome this new place of crossing.
It can handle rush hour,
or heavy foot-traffic.
Continue the build,
always creating with the future in mind,
before the old fully implodes underneath our feet.
