Death and life

Death 2.jpg

 

Death and life are with me in this room

Putting their arguments before me

Which to chose

When I know all too easily

That with choosing life

Comes the risk of endings and of pain

And that with each and every choice

There is no way to go back again

If time proves the results were less than I could hope

Or others claimed

But tonight it seems that all

That surrounds me is such deep pain

That there is little possibility of ever becoming free again

Because this afternoon

Death came close and

Shone his spotlight in my face

Asking what I had made of life

And when no answer came

The dread fell down like acid rain

Because there is no way to ever choose again

All of those past wrong choices

That I made

"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. Whatever has happened in the past we can never change; if you feel that there are wrongs to put right or things you seek but haven’t yet found, they lie in the future with life. Stay strong my friends – sending love and hugs xx
