White Flags
Every April
I hope to feel strong
But not until I understand that strength is in allowing
myself to breakdown
Will strength really come
Embracing “Woman”
I want to truly understand Proverbs 31
And that it is a WHOLE chapter and not just a verse
The time it takes to read it is not the time it takes to be
that woman
Resolve to Rest
Resting is a conscious act of the mind AND body taking a break to heal, repair, restore
Slow down…Listen
I sometimes find it hard to connect with that still small voice in my head.
Showered in Grace
And even if there was no you, or you, or you
He would have died solely just for me
Beyond the Scream
When you feel like you need to scream
Or just rip your hair out
Try asking yourself
“What is my body telling me it needs?
My, my, my, generations of pie
any chance you get to spend time with the generation ahead of you— cherish it, preserve the family history, the memories any way you can.
“Every tool is a weapon if you hold it right”
— Ani DiFranco
