To be Free

Walking down the street without reason,
What a treat!
To sip a cup of coffee, to laugh with friends, to hold a hand.

Do you know where you are going? With what purpose? Is it essential?

Limit your life experience, confine your existence to a 5k radius.

Tough days are past, more yet to come
When time has no meaning and you find yourself alone.

Think of your mothers, your children, your health. Think of those who now may rest.

And when you feel lost and hopeless… take a breath. If you can, you are winning.
