Alone

There are some paths

We must walk alone

The journey is ours

The experience too

We have the courage

And wisdom too

It's fear that kicks in

And anger 

And then

We resist

What must be

What cannot be changed

Fear fights

Acceptance strengthens

Fear says "NO!"

Acceptance says "...it is what it is..."

Wisdom is accepting

Everything- including the fear and the anger...

Acceptance is loving ourselves

Through it all

And then alone isn't a burden

We are all alone 

After all

We are all alone together-
