the three words I needed to hear
take a second
to step back
and
set it down
live hands free
and you’ll begin to see
there is a better way of living.
Sometimes we just need to hear it from someone else.
And this is what I needed to hear.
Three words.
That was it.
Nothing more was needed to be said.
I’m beginning to realize the fewer the words the harder they hit.
Words like …
I love you.
We need to talk.
I miss you.
I need you.
The three words that stopped me in my place were:
Set it down.
These words gave me permission to be free.
To leave behind what kept my fingers clenched and hands full.
Set it down.
Live hands free and you’ll begin to see there is a better way of living.
