A step back from life
November 5, 2014 2 Comments
A ‘great example’ someone called me today,
For choosing a path in an uncommon way,
But exemplary or brave, that’s not really it,
I just needed the time to stop, breathe and sit.
I’ve stepped off of the ride, to look up and around,
To really appreciate the sight and the sound.
In taking this step, I am hoping to find,
A real Holy Grail to quieten my mind.
A ball-busting career was never for me,
Nor pushing the trolley, serving coffee and tea.
To this day I still wonder to where I am headed,
But not for one second have my future I dreaded.
To be honest I find it a pure liberation,
Not having a clue where will be the next station.
So let’s hope it involves lots of laughs and no strife,
As Tommy enjoys taking a step back from life.
