A Realm of Sacred Joy

LOOK BEYOND the Apparent

#4

The day

Is new so I

Smile with the sun, letting the

Wind carry me into the Jetstream, moving so

Fast, fast.

I will

Land on my feet

As if nothing ever happened to

My journey. It has been a bumpy ride.

Climate change

Doesn’t hold

A candle to my

World. With no important beginning, life

Only needs being a disappointment to throw off

A journey

Shame is

The lowest of bars

Learning anger will make a difference

To it, but it may be behind my

Good nature

By practice

Still it doesn’t actually

Act like a cushion of comfort

I fell for men who never grew up.

Look beyond.

  2. Shame is damaging. Part of adulthood is unlearning the negative thought patterns we learn in childhood.😫

    1. Exactly, Melissa. It amazes me how deep to the core of us they are and the effort it takes to see them and dump them!
