In these troubling times, it's been helpful for me to remember, still, that all things must pass and all things must change. Here are some words that came to me this week to remind me of this — of our power as creators and makers — and that provide me some peace and resolve.
This is a small prayer (perhaps the start of a song), and I hope it provides some solace to you.
Fear not the strength of the water
Fear not the strength of the waves
Fear not the ways that you’re altered
In time, all things flow away
Fear not the strength of the water
Fear not the weight of what dies
You and I have the strength of the artist
You and I have the strength of the light
