Rise again

Deepest pain.jpg

Fear,

 You dog our waking moments

Like a rabid animal

That does not want to let go

Of the bone that contained the poison

That caused its disease

What is it in us

That clings to pain and hurt

And even will forget or deny

The positive things

That present themselves in our lives

Selective attention can make us see what it is that wounds

And keeps our gaze fixed there

Instead of teaching us to change our focus

Towards that which

Brings us life and joy and happiness

Again

Trauma fixes us to the sticking place

Where we flagellate in our crucifixion

 Just like Jesus

Surely we need new archetypes to lead us

And it is really our transformation

And our resurrection we should focus upon

As we fully enter the fire

And submit

Seeking ways to burn through and clear

Rising again

From the ashes of our past

And most over powering

Defeats

"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.
