What will your verse be?

''The question, O me! so sad, recurring—What good amid these, O me, O life?

Answer.
That you are here—that life exists and identity;
That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse.''

(O Me! O Life! by Walt Whitman)


i’ve been wondering what that means for me… and honestly, i’m still figuring it out.

so i wanted to ask—what’s your verse?

that line about 'you may contribute a verse' is what really stayed with me!

The verse that means the most to me is footprints 💙

@Amanda84

The actual verse is why is there one set of footprints? Because I'm carrying you in my arms!

being carried through the hardest times- that kind of faith and comfort feels like a powerful verse in itself
