What might it mean?

045

What might it mean

To live wholeheartedly

To no longer defend

But to relax

To no longer keep saying ‘NO’

Go away

Instead

Come in

My heart is open

Even to my pain

As well as yours

And

To know its even safe to leave

If you don’t get it

Seeing that isn’t my problem

For the heart that is closed to pain

Is closed to love

And now I want to live open

In every moment

I see where loneliness took me

When I saw no other solution

And today my heart breaks a little again

Working all alone in the garden

Seeing the times that I too

Blocked and defended against love

Taking up residence here

And I am deeply sorry

For any pain I caused

Even unintentionally

There is so much love here in my heart

Just not a lot of places to share it

And I see truly

Finally

Deeply

That a live lived all alone

Without giving and receiving love

Is a barren life

"The religious naturalist is provisioned with tales of natural emergence that are, to my mind, far more magical than traditional miracles. Emergence is inherent in everything that is alive, allowing our yearning for supernatural miracles to be subsumed by our joy in the countless miracles that surround us." Ursula Goodenough How to describe oneself? People are a mystery and there is so much more to us than just our particular experiences or occupations. I could write down a list of attributes and they still might not paint a complete picture pf Deborah Louise and in any case it would not be the full truth of me. I would say that my purpose here on Wordpress is to express some of my random experiences, thoughts and feelings, to share about my particular journey and explore some subjects dear to my heart, such as emotional recovery, healing and astrology while posting up some of the prose/poems which are an outgrowth of my labours with life, love and relationships. If anything I write touches you I would be so pleased to hear for the purpose of reaching out and expressung ourselves is hopefully to connect with each other and find where our souls meet.

  1. Hello,
    I started reading your postings only recently, while searching for the same kind of info for spouses of narcissists. You dont know me of course, but I wish you to know that I think you are brave to explore, and confront and record your feelings and pain.
    Please continue to do what you have to, to help you to feel better. I find that reading your posts is helpful to me.
    Thank you.
