I want...

Free.

I want to be free: to run full throttle into the unknown, chasing the horizon.

I want to be unleashed: to be untethered by the restraints of opinions, predisposed suppositions, and predetermined labels.

I want to be untamed: to live as a barbarian-- dangerous, radical, savage.

Bound.

I want to be bound: to be shackled to love and encapsulated by peace.

I want to be harnessed: to be sealed and clothed in the mystical armor of The Spirit, arrested by the glory of a warrior.

I want to be tempered: to will and act with precision and intent that releases power and energy not of my own design or manufacture but that of Divine origin.

Broken.

I want to be broken: to run into a Presence that surpasses my understanding and brings me to awe and wonder.

I want to be undone: to live in full surrender to each moment, each whim of my Sustainer.

I want to be diminished: to live fully in my identity while chiseled, hewn, and sculpted into the image of my Forebearer.

Whole.

I want to be whole: to lack nothing; complete.

I want to be interwoven: to be fully integrated as a mosaic tapestry of Spirit, mind, body, soul, skills, gifts, passions, desires, and dreams.

I want to be significant: to be a force for good as a light in the Darkness and a beacon of Hope for the sojourner and absent.
