Into The Wind

On surviving chaos - The journey #34

Chaos rages. And fear moves in, uninvited, like weather.

You were born knowing how to take the air in. No one taught you to breathe. And when you breathe out, your one of a kind sound travels, carrying with it what you choose.

Maybe that's where holding peace through the chaos starts …

forget riding waves
ride the wind

no wings
it's challenging
they said
people were not made for this
yet hurricanes 
carry heavier things

the question is 
how
you and the wind
become friends


stand at the edge of the cliff
waves rage below
let the wind hold you
run its fingers through your hair
give it
your trust

breathe
breathe
breathe

let it flow inside you
everywhere
give it what it finds

even if it hollows you


be ready
for an unstable ride

one hour 
high in the sky
the next
you’re not

breathe when you fall
breathe when you rise


listen
the sound of your inhale

remember
the shaking and howling
a hurricane 
in the height of its rage

remember
the gentleness of a breeze
when a wind chime
sweetly rings


listen
the sound of your exhale

it’s yours
no other sound like it
in the whole universe

your command
to the wind
what you choose
to declare


there is nothing left to fear
when you’ve made
the wind
your friend
