Endure

endure...and greater things
shall come your
way.

and this alone is the lesson and reason for the
million steps along the trail and roads we
give ourselves to.
we are runners - and more - we are travelers in a
present moment full of this awareness.
the gift of our endurance is the
gift to endure.
and once known...we carry on with a
joyous heart even in the midst of
pain.
it's not that this too shall pass - no - it's that
this too is ours and owned to the depth of
bone and soul.
we have felt deep to the marrow life in a
single step - and then - we took
another.
and still one
more.
we have endured.
