Balance replaces Isolation

By Crystal Granderson-Reid

Words reverberate inside my head. Some more often than others. Isolation has been a constant for the past three years. In that time I've become more disciplined with my writing and honed an inner peace that can only be described as super-human. I don't know why. I'm not religious but I do believe in a higher power, and so I pray faithfully, and often. Recently, Balance has replaced Isolation. And when the word comes, it manifests itself throughout my life. With that, patience allows for promise. I'm sure of it.
