Give in to Joy
A Heartfelt Piece to Slow Down Before We Charge into 2022.
I’m holding myself tight, I’m smiling
I’m hugging myself, and I’m staring at the mirror
I see her, she’s smiling back.
I laugh, feeling silly
You can join me, Please do
Make yourself at home. Like me, don’t think today,
Just be, and feel free to give in to joy
*
It doesn’t have to be scary
No, change doesn’t have to make you afraid
There is always someone out there holding a hand
If you just look up and see
And you’ll realize that, You too can feel free
To give in to joy
The joy inside you,
The joy inside me,
The joy that wants to break free,
The joy that wants to be seen,
by you,
By me, and by the world today
*
The joy that we are one
The joy that there will always be someone
To hear you, to hear me
To see you, to see me
The joy that there is someone to tell you
That you too can feel free, to give in to joy today
*
Please give yourself a hug
Please hold yourself tight
Please hold onto your light
Because we don’t know, what is on the other side
Please make yourself welcome
Please grab a seat
And let’s all hold hands as we experience this new year
*
Let’s not give in to uncertainty
Let’s not give in to fear
Let’s keep our heads up
As we experience this new year
Please feel free,
Please feel free,
To give in to joy, inside you, inside me,
Then share it with the world, and with those in need.
Happy New Year!
