“Reflections on 1:1”
A random thought crosses my mind. What if this was my future? Torn away from family and friends; Trapped in a world I’d die to escape. I see my past in this young child. Fear, wishing it would all end… but my future is peaceful because of my family’s prayers. As I sit and watch this young one, I see so much of myself. I hid my feelings from everyone and only expressed them in poetry. I hope this young one finds a healthy outlet for all her emotions. I truly hope she can find one.
