My life is in your hands
My life is in my hands
Your life is in my hands
Your life is in your hands

My life is in your hands
My life is in my hands
Your life is in my hands
Your life is in your hands

This morning I walked my daughter to school, instead of dropping her off outside the gates. When we entered the road that her school is in, there was only a short way to go, and she is getting older now. I said to her, you can walk the rest of the way by yourself. And she replied, I don’t want to, I want you to walk with me, you are my company. One little sentence that made my heart soar, and heart sore for knowing that she will grow and fly away. Yes, my child, for now, I am your company, and you are mine.

Waking up
Never knowing if today
Might be our last
Be at peace
Be content
Love
And if today would be our last
Allow spirit to always live
Freedom to love
Freedom to live
Freedom to laugh
Freedom to be
Freedom forever
“Seems like yesterday
Not far away
When she first came to him
She took him by surprise
He closed his eyes
And sinking tried to swim
She never closed the door
So he came back for more”
Ed Jordan, Proudly South African 1997
Omigosh, this triggers memory and emotion in me.
