Turn the lights off…I can hardly control my need to find the quietness of darkness…and I am in too deep to quite just give it up. A matter of fact it’s not an option…and I cry just a little, not because my choices have vanished, but because I understand the magic of making a decision is that regardless of the joy or the pain…it is always full of endless possibilities. So I struggle from time to time…and in turning off the lights, also hope to quiet the doubts and calm expectations and in the dark lay down my heart and feel the power…of just being alive. Sometimes I just need to float there in the stillness, defying the demands of gravity and light…and slow down enough to let the heaviness fall away, and wait patiently for me…to find me again.

About Lawrence Lewis
I do a number of things professionally...but most of all and the true purpose of what I do through "my work" is to provide for my family, be a good husband and great father, and try to make a difference as a world citizen...I guess it's not much more complicated than that 🙂
