Me

(A story in moments) Different Never felt I had a space in many places . . . Ouch and when I went to school, that was confirmed. Safety The only place to hide was within reason. Lessons But what is really reason must be learned. Change Soon my life became completely different. Naïveté It spat me out into the world (or was it spewed?) Calling and finding what I wanted was of essence. Growth Emerging like Athena in the nude. Poetry Now I see what in me is worth the viewing. Masks I hide in me that which can be consumed. Work The building called myself is work in progress . . . Uncertainty whether commissioned as a shrine or as a tomb. Faith I believe I'll find the things that make me happy . . . Hope yet feeling they've eluded me thus far. Knowledge But with age I'm learning more about the lesson Truth that everywhere you go is where you are.

Superb contemplation ~ we may, if it resonates, add prayerful meditation ~ aligning lower mind to the higher by resonation ~ with Gods love vibration :)
