"I will not die an unlived life.
I will not live in fear of falling or
catching fire.
I choose to inhabit my
days,
to allow my living to open me,
to make me less afraid, more accessible,
to loosen my heart until it becomes
a wing, a torch, a promise.
I choose to
risk my significance;
to live so that which comes to me as seed
goes to the
next as blossom
and that which comes to me as blossom,
goes on as fruit."
