ali's Corner. [The Angel In The Mirror]

this road i walk is the best there is.
but at times, it's quite lonely.

the overabundance of energy that i've spent
hoping, wishing, crying out, longing && praying...
for an angel.

someone to rush to my side
to be there for me just like i am for everyone else...
in my times of feeling lost
to counsel me
encourage me
hold me accountable for things i do and say.

has been redefined for me.
i've realized that i've been asking God to give me give me give me.
But his plan is so much more.
He's to be my rock.
the one to counsel me when i'm feeling lost.
and to comfort me when i'm lonely.

His purpose for me is so much more than what I want from him.
My purpose is to be exactly what i've been looking so hard and so long for.

My purpose is

to be there for others
even if they aren't there for me.

to respect others
even if they disrespect me
and spit in my face.

&& to love others
even if they'll never ever love me back.

The angel i've been searching for
for so long
is a more familiar face than i thought.

It runs through my veins
pulsing with the strength only God holds for me.
It is my own flesh and blood.
The angel i've been searching for
is me.
