Lift Your Heart Toward Heaven

Posted by

Refuse to fall down.
If you cannot refuse to fall down,
refuse to stay down.
If you cannot refuse to stay down,
lift your heart toward heaven,
and like a hungry beggar,
ask that it be filled.
You may be pushed down.
You may be kept from rising.
But no one can keep you from lifting your heart
toward heaven -
only you.
It is in the midst of misery
that so much becomes clear.
The one who says
nothing good came of this,
is not yet listening.

- Clarissa Pinkola Estes, A Prayer, from "The Faithful Gardener".
