A rainy day

Celebrate

A rainy day

Draws me inward

As I draw comfort from the depths of my inner world

A day of blissful surrender spent

Writing

Reading

Contemplating life

How blessed I am

To have these gifts

An awesome mind

A heart that feels

A vision that can embrace

Differences

And even though before

I lay down with my hurt

Like a wounded animal that bled

And wanted only for it to end

When I faced it new life came in

As the cells in my body

Once again rearranged

To fill the empty places opened

With love and light

And as old pain left

New wisdom came

Like new life comes

With falling rain

"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. I read and liked this last night but was in desperate need of sleep so I didn’t comment. But I had to come back this morning and comment on a piece of writing that touched me, in many ways.
    As a human being, I relate. The rush of gratitude I feel is overwhelming sometimes; I’m thankful for the ability to express my feelings in the written word and for the people who encourage and support this. And I am wary of those valleys, where anxiety and depression warp that gratitude.
    As a writer, I love how you bookend this piece with rain. You talk about how a rainy day drives you inward and then you finish with a line I absolutely love. “Like new life comes with falling rain . .”
    Brava!
