You Were Meant for This

When the moment comes

and the fear hits you

and you want to run,

I hope you take a breath

and I hope you stay.

I hope you listen to the sound of your heart beating in your chest,

I hope you feel how your whole body has come life

and you were meant for this.

I hope at that moment— in spite of the fear,

and as you wake up—

you let go

of everything you thought you had to be

and you let who you are—

every ounce of energy and power and vitality—

be exactly

what you need.

I hope in that moment

you see

you were meant for this.
