For a New Year

Bury your fears in the soil Let earth transform them To seeds of courage Scatter your pain in the wind Let air refresh you For growth and healing Throw old constraints in the flame Let fire free you To bold ideas Cast your regrets in the stream Let water cleanse you For new beginnings

As someone who loves astrology and the four elements involved with the twelve signs, I really loved reading this one. A great take on the four elements, Agnes! and yes, that poem of mine is true. I had my breast cancer tumor removed in July and was told I would need chemo AND radiation due to it being genetic. But in my mind, that is overkill. I probably don't even have it and I refuse to poison my body with chemo. I'm lucky I have other doctors that support my decision. Start radiation soon!
