Recycled Treasure

My heart has accepted every piece of furniture you have brought in and hoarded, polished and stored, for show or hidden in the attic of cerebral storage. Cobwebs draped the entrances I walked through without wincing, chasing extinguishing light… gold tarnishing possibilities that I found invaluable.

Everyone deserves a new beginning...accepting someone for who they are can be challenging nowadays bc of their past. Love how you entered her mind and was able to show how attentive and observant you are. Great read!!!

Thanks! The past should remain in the past. It's crazy that it does alter a lot of peoples future. Then someone comes along and show you that you're worth more, is priceless.

She sounds like a garage sale aficionado. It is fun finding treasures. I like to ponder the history of things.

Sometimeswe have to excavate jewels from someone's spirit and show them they are still full of treasure; especially when they don't see it.
