Companions
I am preparing for a trip to Bainbridge and a retreat. This is part of a Leadership Academy presented by the Centre for Courage and Renewal. This is the second part of the process and it has been truly rewarding as I find my way on this journey called life with companions here at home, from all over North America and, sometimes, beyond.
Beloved other
An invitation,
For carried alone
Troubles weight us down
Each step, a struggle.
But, lightened,
Grow strong together
Backs straighten–
Shoulders square–
Heads held high.
Journey together,
Loads shared
Trust born
Become companions
Break bread together.
