Midlife’s A Trip

Antidote to An Unlived Life

Posted on 12. Jul, 2009 by Karen in Inspiration, Resources

As I start my Sunday – first day of the week, day of new beginnings, I’m renewed by a wonderful passage from author and poet Dawna Markova:

“I will not die an unlived life.

I will not live in fear of falling or catching fire.

I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my living to open me,

To make me less afraid,

More accessible,

To loosen my heart until it becomes a wing, a torch, a promise.

I choose to risk my significance, to live so that which came to me as seed goes to the next as blossom,

And that which came to me as blossom,

Goes on to fruit.”
