I stand on the edge
As one who once knew anxiety
Today it has no foothold
Small voices attempt to regain their strongholds
But I make them silent
One screams “ARE YOU CERTAIN?!”
I reply firmly,
“Yes.”
“I am complete, therefore return from where you came, and speak no more.”
Certainty is mine
Today I can hear the voices, just as before.
But today I know they lie.
I am one with the wind
I only hold that which I desire
And that which makes me whole.
Good things I can now choose for myself
Whilst others may belittle and call me crazy.
I will play the fool for them
As they scream at me- “CEASE!” as I leap from their sight and their fearful sounds.
The fool card in the Tarot, shows a man who is gleefully about to jump off a cliff. From the viewers perspective it appears to be madness and can only mean certain death for the man. But the ‘fool’ isn’t concerned and this is why he holds this name. But perception is everything. Know one can see what he does. He has no fear and even his little dog looks happy. He is also playful and happy.
No one can know what you know or see things through your eyes. Sometimes, we have to take leaps into the unknown, even if the world disagree’s with us. Trusting yourself and knowing that all will be well is of utmost importance. Taking a leap of faith often doesn’t require the illusion of faith. Inner knowing is quite different. Intuition is knowing what to do, even if it doesn’t make any sense to anyone else. Trust yourself, even if good intended advice says otherwise.
