“Even though we are all different, we are all the same. We all want to be loved and accepted for who we are.”
One of the greatest challenges in life is cooperative interaction with others. We hit walls we don’t want to climb and cross bridges we don’t want to meet…half…way. We guard our personalities and beliefs with our life.
Why? It took a long time to figure out who we are and no one is going to mess with that…right?
However, sometimes we have to step out of our deep rooted convictions and venture into neutral territories. It is in this place that we will find one thing in common. When we look underneath egos and actions, we will find the vulnerability that makes all of us human….the need to be validated and loved.
This is where hearts will align.. in spite of ourselves.
There is a common ground we walk on
Dirt, sand, rock, mud
It doesn’t matter
It is the place for our feet to walk
To rest, to run
Where balance begins
To align our spine, our soul
A comparable posture
That life is hard
It can beat you down
To a place where
Hands and knees
Are only required
There is a common ground we walk on
Gravel, grass, ice, clay
The surface may vary
But the purpose does not
We march, we skip, we fall
To the drum of hope
To the sound of sorrow
In a global orchestra
Parading on pavement
For the same goals
The same desires
To live in peace
Or simply to live
