When you went away
full of dreams and plans
we waved your plane off
and wondered how reality
could possibly live up to
your unreasonable expectations.
We let you go to find your way
and when nothing is
what you thought it’d be
We have faith that
you will figure out
the reason,
and create reasonable
reality
for yourself.

Having sent 4 away, you nailed it! Great job. Now, write the one about your heart, the pull and tug as they fly, and your own journey of discover and rediscovery? 🙂
It’s been six years without them. I’m not sure I even remember…
I started writing Grace Awakening when they left, which suggests all the discovery is probably right there between the pages…
Being unreasonable about reality and having to change your view of it is a great topic. You captured the image of someone (a college student most likely) taking off for the future quite well.
Thanks, Megan
I just sent my 1st born off 2 weeks ago…
Perfect timing. You’ve captured the feelings and experience dead on 🙂
Best wishes. Now is your time to shine!
