How frightening it is to walk away.
From a place, from a person, from a country.
But the scariest thing is to walk away from who you thought you were.
How frightening it is to walk away from the way one perceived oneself while the voices inside and outside constantly try to explain to you that you’re something else, because “you used to be this way or that way”
How frightening it is to walk away.
Because in this act of walking away, there is a clear understanding of what is ‘not,’ while the clear understanding of what ‘is’ is still missing.
To walk away is an act of relative precision
It bears an acknowledgment that the whole picture is not clear, and yet, action is still ‘required.’
Acting without knowing the full picture is a frightening act,
but only those who are willing to walk in an unseeded land
can receive God’s grace.
“Thus says the Lord: I remember the devotion of your youth,
your love as a bride,
how you followed me in the wilderness,
in a land not sown”
