A Year of Seeing: April 21: “Normal”

Normal

When are we going to go back to

normal? When will things return to

normal? I hear this so often

and a part of me echoes this as well,

but my soul, my soul, whispers about

something else to yearn for, 

something else to set our eyes and hearts on.

My soul desires not to go back but

to go forward, towards wholeness, towards

a transformed way of life that smells like

healing and fresh air and smiles.
