Do any of you remember what it was like to love, to live in the moment, to see only the future?
Before YOU or someone or something invaded your life and took whatever innocence you had from you, there was a time, in my life and I assume in yours, where WE really believed that all of it was possible.
As if there was no past, as if there was no shame, no guilt, no pain, no hurt, no frustration, no fear and no doubt. We explored the world with innocent eyes and a care free heart. We did not carry the burdens we do now. There was no Debt, there was no guilt, there was no dark secret to hide in a box and bury inside of us.
Why can't we go back?
Why can't we just let it go and give it to God and leave it there?
Why can't we leave the past behind us and focus on everything wonderful and beautiful. Can we still see the greenest forest and imagine the possibilities?
Can we still genuinely have joy? Joy in the morning, like the beauty of the rising sun. Happiness that consumes the soul in the anticipation of a Hope is still there.
