Let Go

We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us. ~ Joseph Campbell

As long as I hold on to all that is mine,
to what I’m accustomed to, to comfort
I will have exactly what I had, and less,
for it will dwindle away, wear out, rust,
become obsolete. But if I let go, if I trust,
if I reach for the next toehold, the next branch,
for the possibility of the day I will gain
and most of the good I had already attained
will remain there, enhance and made vibrant
for what I reached out for in faith.
