Real talk: What would you say?

https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=tJYpZKU81lc&feature=share

What would you say?

What would you say, who would you say it TO, if it/they would be your last words?

Who/whom, would you say the words to?

What would you say?

Knowing, upon completion’s end, your words, would be the last words this world would ever hear. Would you:

Allow, pride, to keep you silent?

Allow, fear, to keep you silent?

Allow, shame, to keep you silent?

Allow, anger, to keep you silent?

Allow, embarrassment, to keep you silent?

Allow, doubt, to keep you silent?

Allow, the world, to keep you silent?

Allow, others, to keep you silent?

Allow, YOU, to keep you silent?

What would you say?

Who/whom would you reach out to?

Who would you hold?

Who would you allow to hold you?

What would you say?

If pride, fear, shame, anger, embarrassment, doubt, the world, others, YOU, were out of the way, would you:

Say?

Live?

Love?

Time, is not promised. None of us know when the ‘last time’ will truly BE the last time, the last moment, the last opportunity to:

Say.

Live.

Love.

Beloveds, time grows short.

SAY!

LIVE!

LOVE!

I say to you:

I love you, beloveds. I pray for you, on the daily. I ask God and Life to bless your life, free you from ALL that holds you down, holds you back, keeps you from love, keeps you from loving. I ask God to give you as He has given me:

Dance parties, in your undies.

Chocolate chip muffins, with The King.

Limitless supplies of bacon and Popeyes chicken sandwiches.

Endless conversations about everything and nothing with God and Life.

Comfort for times of mourning.

Joy for EVERY morning.

The KNOWLEDGE, EXPERIENCE, REVELATION of God’s Deep and Abiding Love for you.

Mostly, I ask that you know, of a surety that you ARE:

Seen.

Loved.

Cherished.

Valued.

Recieved.

Accepted.

Just as you are. Oh, that I could make these words, this blog, go viral so the world and EVERY soul within it could hear they are valued.

Say! Live! Love!

Don’t waste another moment.

I love me some you,

Cassandra
