It wasn’t about
trying so hard
to create,
really.
Healing my own
shattered heart
was an art,
not a formula.
It took the strength
of each piece
risking to trust
when it would have
made more sense
to turn away.
It took the strength
to reach
and to hold
with open hands —
without grasping
or needing to avoid
being left
alone
in my reaching
while praying
to God that
wouldn’t happen.
It was a risk
that at a certain point
had become
my greatest hope.

Awe. Thanks. I guess after this journey it doesn’t really feel like deep so much .. just how it is. ❤💕

‘How is is’ is one of the big steps forward. Some people never get there, because they stay in the past.
