The Two Spirit In the Unexpected Double Exposure Photo

A Two Exposure Photo of Myself…
Ussen, you do work mysteriously. 
I do see my older & younger self.
What an unexpected strange surprise.

I see an older, wiser, mature self
Preparing for the very long road to come.
Two Photographs, The Past & The Future.
Hidden Message for me to decipher.

My intrepid Older self to be found
A Secret Strength for me to tap into
Yes, I was vulnerable and frightened
But I had the tools in me to survive

I have become who I needed to be.
I have found peace and comfort in my skin.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
