I didn’t want to be bitter
When Marriage vows dissolved
Yet that is exactly what I became
I hid it even from myself
Like a red tide, it was
Just below the surface
And that is my shame
For this, I have no one
But myself to … blame.
Accepting responsibility for
What I’ve created here,
I lift my new eyes to the horizon
Seeing all of life differently;
I can now choose from variety.
I am not my bitterness,
But I own that it is part of me.
The death grip it has had on me,
My emotions, and my nihilistic behaviors
Loosens. Icy tendrils may persist,
But my heart may once again feel its bliss.
Namaste

Writing out my thoughts has helped me to gain a new perspective of myself. In sharing these writings, it is my hope to help others to better understand themselves. It is my belief that with each of us who chooses this path of greater understanding of thy self, that it inspires others to do the same. This building momentum is the force that drives me to share, for in my vulnerability, I find my strength. I believe that you can also find yours there.
~~~In reading some of my posts, you will see that growth is not always pretty. It is in breaking apart and coming undone that a seed sprouts and breaks free of its own captivity. It is also out of mud that the lotus blossoms. ~~~Please join me in seeing the beauty of growth within the deconstruction of our limiting beliefs. ~~T.C.
