portals

words are portals.

until is a portal filled with hope. 

ahead is also. 

beyond is too. 

the words we choose can move us toward the portals

of love,

of hope, 

of belonging, 

of freedom, 

of liberation. 

even just those words identifying the portals, become portals themselves. 

use the words we want to 

live inside, 

feel so fully, 

believe, 

and be. 

transform. exude. shine. create. prayer. remember.
