A blank sheet

A blank sheet

A void that is devoid of anything

Unyielding
Unwieldy
A cavernous space so overwhelming that remaining stationary is the default.
Expansive and all-consuming
Emptiness ever looming


A blank sheet

A place to embrace everything

Abundance
Ampleness
An opportunity to satisfy the starved senses
Plentiful and accreting
Bountifully leaping

What is a purpose?

Sometimes our purpose is not to be a status or a job.
Not a star on your dressing room.
Not letters after your name.
Not a photograph in a magazine.
Not followers on a social network site.
Not to be the slimmest.
Not to be the happiest.
Not to be the cleverest.
Not to be the richest.
Not to dwarf another’s purpose.
Not to be the benchmark for all that is wrong.

Sometimes our purpose is to be the shoulder.
Lend the ear.
Offer the cup of tea.

To just sit and say nothing.
