I went for a long walk today,
My "Daring Greatly" t-shirt hidden under my jacket.
I told my story in the shadow of the trees,
And felt my words take wing and rise up in the gentle morning breeze.
I shared my story with the Great Blue Heron that followed me down the creek.
We watched each other - bearing silent witness
as something passed between us.
And as I watched her take flight
I too was lifted up.
