Interlude 1
This place feels unfamiliar. But safe
Is that strange? To know that uncertainty plagues me
But my life is already in the hands of the one who knows my heart more than me
When you find yourself looking for directions and spend time sitting in silence,
alone with your thoughts, as uncomfortable as that is
It's scary and icky and I feel lost but something is gripping onto me,
There is a pull, there is light. And I can't fight that feelin that there is healing in this place
I've realised that women are never really told to listen to their inner compass
I say women because that's my experience. I'm sure it applies to men too
Life would be very different if we were told to trust ourselves versus doubt ourselves
Sure feelings can be flaky but what is deeper than feelings?
What if what's for us doesn't actually make sense?
Cause otherwise its supposed to make sense isn't it?
That's what society tells you. That's what parents tell you.
Its like a check list. As if there is a guarantee that by following the checklist everything will be perfect
But life isn't a checklist. It doesn't always make sense
What we thought we knew isn't always it
And I've always believed in taking leaps
So Ani. What are you going to do now in this moment?
Are you going to be brave? Are you going to stay afraid?
What if I fall? That voice keeps saying and then there is a whisper,
A quiet one, like the faded scar that is evidence of the damage a bad fall had,
In a different place and time
But what if
What if you fly?
Is that strange? To know that uncertainty plagues me
But my life is already in the hands of the one who knows my heart more than me
When you find yourself looking for directions and spend time sitting in silence,
alone with your thoughts, as uncomfortable as that is
It's scary and icky and I feel lost but something is gripping onto me,
There is a pull, there is light. And I can't fight that feelin that there is healing in this place
I've realised that women are never really told to listen to their inner compass
I say women because that's my experience. I'm sure it applies to men too
Life would be very different if we were told to trust ourselves versus doubt ourselves
Sure feelings can be flaky but what is deeper than feelings?
What if what's for us doesn't actually make sense?
Cause otherwise its supposed to make sense isn't it?
That's what society tells you. That's what parents tell you.
Its like a check list. As if there is a guarantee that by following the checklist everything will be perfect
But life isn't a checklist. It doesn't always make sense
What we thought we knew isn't always it
And I've always believed in taking leaps
So Ani. What are you going to do now in this moment?
Are you going to be brave? Are you going to stay afraid?
What if I fall? That voice keeps saying and then there is a whisper,
A quiet one, like the faded scar that is evidence of the damage a bad fall had,
In a different place and time
But what if
What if you fly?
