Pick Up the Pieces

Listen to poem:

It might have all been illusion Your dreams now lay shattered Your whole life seems in shambles Don’t despair Hold your head high Reset your sights on the big picture Reevaluate your ambitions Pick up and juggle the pieces Rebuild the puzzle Take time to refocus Time to recalibrate And not lose balance AP: 1st place 2021 Posted on March 28, 2018

Wise words. Been there, done that, have the T-shirt. And will probably have to do it again every now and then. Many wishes, Kai

Pick up and juggle the pieces. Yes! They are all there. It is up to us to regroup them and build something new. Perfect advice Line. Great,

Just what I discussed with my therapist yesterday. Seems banal, but the short cut does not work...Broken pieces need to reveal themselves first, before they can be reassembled. Many wishes, Kai
