In the midst of all confusion
An answer suddenly appears
Destroying all illusion
Removing every fear
Perhaps it's not what you expected
Opposite to your thoughts
Something you rejected
Or secretly longed for
Embrace the presented moment
The event is meant to be
Perhaps time for some atonement
Or just to rest and see
Fire up the passion
For what you truly want to do
Take the time for self compassion
Make your wildest dreams come true
Poem inspired by recent events in my life.
September was an up and down month. I finished up at work 30 Sept as my contract came to an end. Initially I was on the lookout for a new contract and was getting anxious about not finding a job quickly until I got hit with the flu with a vengeance that completely drained me - no energy, no appetite, no strength.
And on the last day at work I just made a split second decision that I was going to take a few months off and simply enjoy life. It's been a hard year and I've done some long hours at work. Not complaining as I've enjoyed every moment of it. But I do need the rest and time for myself to do the things I want to do and to stop and smell the roses and to enjoy the camellias in my garden and to ignite that fire within me to write and rhyme and photograph and dream.
