Hopefulness - Tumblr Posts

I am not okay today.

So, in the absence of okay,

what else can I be?

I can be gentle.

I can be unashamed.

I can turn my pain into connection.

I can be a student of stillness.

I can be awake to nature.

I can sharpen my empathy

against the stone of my discomfort.

I am not okay,

but I am many worthy things.
