.: assured by sunrise :.

This morning I woke with the deepest sense of self, deeper than anything that I have felt for the longest time. I woke to find that I am less afraid than I have been all week, all year, maybe even all my life. I woke to discover that I could not be any more in love than I am already. I woke to find that my heart feels so in touch with genuine beauty, it is almost frightening. I woke to find that immense knowledge no longer intimidates me. I was awakened by the rediscovery that warmth is one of the greatest senses of safety. My eyes opened, only this time I find that I see much deeper and wider than ever before. Something has struck a chord in me, and every passion is firing off in me with the hope that I can share it with the entire world. Something eternal is making itself known to me, revealing that I get to play a central role in the greatest event known to humankind. My hands feel like they could save someone or something. I woke to find that I am capable of moving in a way that protects the weak and brokenhearted. Though I have feared death for so long, something within me has stirred in such a way that death no longer holds its grip on me. I am awake and alive, thriving on the thought that so many of my expectations will soon become realities. This morning I was stirred by the truth that I could not be any more filled with life than I am right now. My soul feels like it has years and years left in it. I am in a place where moments of heartfelt joy feel more like home than the confidence of a filled mind. I woke this morning with the impression that I have nothing left to fear and no regrets that I will carry to my grave. My heart is overflowing with the sensation that comes right before finding that you have been fully set free. I woke this morning with the feeling that I am only moments away from being released. I have known that there is something to fight for. But only now do I feel fully prepared to engage in the battles that are calling me out. I no longer need to draw from the wells around me. For I have woken with the sense that I can now begin to give what has been fixed and fitted within me. No longer must I be inspired, for now I am an inspiration. There is no one more to impress. This morning finds me in a place where I can fully be myself, for that is more than enough.
