A Poem

* * * * *

once a snowflake fell
on my brow and I loved
it so much and I kissed
it and it was happy and called its cousins
and brothers and a web
of snow engulfed me then
I reached to love them all
and I squeezed them and they became
a spring rain and I stood perfectly
still and was a flower

once it is broken it can rarely be put back together exactly the same way.”

about aging

* * * * *

I do not regret growing older; 

it is a privilege denied to many

Music Heals

* * * * *

When I sing out loud

along with my favorite songs

or I dance like a lunatic

until the music ends,

I'm better.

Doing the Math

You will only be hurt a finite number of times 

during your life.

You have an infinite number of ways to deal with it.

Note to Self

* * * * *

“If you are not doing what you love, 

you are wasting your time.”

— Billy Joel

* * * * *

Wholehearted Living

* * * * *

Wholehearted living is about engaging in our
lives from a place of worthiness. It means
cultivating the courage, compassion, and
connection to wake up in the morning and
think, No matter what gets done and how
much is left undone; I am enough.

It’s going to bed at night thinking, Yes, I am
imperfect and vulnerable and sometimes
afraid, but that doesn’t change the truth
that I am also brave and worthy of love
and belonging.

 

~Brené Brown

Stepping Away.

Leaving a part of her behind

in order to move on.

.

Baby steps but starting to feel very comfortable.

Time does heal the frayed edges.  

Thank God.
