Action Steps...

Like a ton of trucks, tonight hit me!  Rounded out conclusions about spaces, places and reactions in my life.  These followed by years of experiences dripping from my eyes, allowing light to reach my darkest well, just as moonlight gently kisses dark waters,

OPEN me up,

NOW- encouraging me to grow.

I stepped into that shift tonight, no longer pulling away.  Painfully accepting a new truth, a perspective perhaps I could never allow myself to see.

My loving partner stood- urgently- offering me a mirror...
I believe with the hope that I could grow,
By finally identifying myself in that reflection...

and

 I think I did.

I stepped through that picture and now begin sketching another, no longer bound by the outline of a presence no longer residing here.

For all the mistakes I have and will make, I understand.  I will actively listen for their wisdom...

Their Action Steps.

My loves, for you both, I promise to continue to grow, to be the best me I can be--even when that growth is terribly painful.  I owe you both that...I owe myself that!


Love and Light,

Lindsay

Oh my sweet one - thank you for the moonlight kissing dark water.

I enjoy your poetic drift and open heart... it is so funny to think how differently we express our hearts and minds and I thank goodness for the difference.

In fact, lately I remind myself that it is the difference that makes this 'roller-coaster' possible. The almost daily reminder helps me quiet my judgements. After all, what would this world become if everyone thought, wrote and adventured like me???? I will enjoy your tattoo from within my naked skin and thank the heavens for you.

Keep up the good work student, social worker, wife, sister, daugher, friend, mama and more.
