Let The Dead Bury The Dead

Let the Dead Bury The Dead can mean a lot of things to a lot of people. A phrase that conjures ideas of regret, remorse, hope, change, letting go and the resolve to follow one’s own path. To move forward, we must also leave things behind. It’s a call to redefine success and failure. It’s a reminder of the impact individual lives can have on the collective. An alternative route, a deviation from the norm, It’s a call to all to step off the treadmill of everyday life, to question and engage, And to seek life by letting what is dead bury itself. When you find your identity, And pursue your true purpose in life, Often, a battle ensues, Between fears and insecurities.
