The Freedom of an Open Hand

One day,our hands will open.

The world will call it loss.

But what if,before that day,we learned to open them ourselves?

To let gobefore we are made to.

To give,while we still have.

To release,while we still can hold.

The strange joyof watching something leave our handsnot as a loss,

but as a gift.

Death will take it all eventually.Life gives us the choiceto give it away with joy.
