Baby Steps
Baby steps
One at a time
Come to me
As if in a line
Sometimes I pay attention
Sometimes I don’t
When I do, I win
When I don’t, I don’t
When I pay attention
My life feels full
I like who I am
I have that extra pull
I want to become more
No longer feel low
I become more aware
Of how far I can go
Being right doesn’t serve me
Being open always does
To renewing my faith
In the end it’s about love
It’s not that I’m not good
I am learning I am
It’s the insights that shift
Becoming more of I AM
It’s funny – not really
How we just plugged along
One foot in front of the other
With the thought we are alone
When I pay attention
The journey’s worthwhile
I have something to offer
That brings from within, a smile
To continue to pay attention
For the gifts that I receive
For when I ask for guidance
How quickly I perceive
The clarity comes swiftly
Most of the time
It’s when I pay attention
I make the change mine
It’s easy when we ask
For the help we so desire
It’s in the letting go
Of having to stay in the fire
