I Am An Inspirer!

742306_tree_and_gateI am an inspirer
I cannot steal your sorrows
and bury them inside my heart
so that you may never see them again.

I cannot heal your wounds
I cannot put my smile upon your lips.

I cannot teach you what to do
for you will not follow them anyways.
I cannot save your soul from pain,
for it is pain that awakens you
to seek the path of truth.

This is what I can do-
I can put down my mask
and reveal to you who I really am.
I can show you how I am imperfect and frail
as you are.
I can share you my tears-
tears of sorrow
and tears of joy,
tears that tell you more
than what I could ever explain.

I can share to you my journey
I can share to you my setbacks,
I can share to you my fears
as well as the courage
that has been forged
as through fire.

I can show you
how heaven has helped me
through it all,
and how marvelous life has been
no matter how difficult
the trials were.

By unmasking myself,
I can reveal to you
who you really are-
you are an Inspirer, too!
And you have the gift and the power
to pass on the light
that you have found!

Who is the Inspirer Unmasked?
