The Longer I Live


 Talk about "making the unknown known"*
To put a spotlight on the light one carries.
Especially if that one is yourself.
"Life and shame and sorrow
take center stage so often,
it's refreshing to know there's a way
to attend to the goodness
so often lost in the background.
I believe it gets lost because 
its commonplace, like dandelions.
It's everywhere shining so quietly
we take it for granted instead 
of marveling at its magnitude.
