If I could

If I could

I would dry all of your tears

After you cried out the pain you felt

Until the flood abated

And the restless sea of your heart

Was finally still

If I could I would hold up a mirror

To show you the beauty that I sense

Living deep within your soul

That those who were blind

Were unable to recognise

If I could I would erase all you doubts and fears

And fill you with the certainty

Of how precious you are

And how loved

But I am only a human being

So all I can do

Is listen

And hold a space open

Offering you a place

For you to be

Fully yourself

"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.

  5. This is so beautiful! It is such a gift …. to know a person who really listens, and gives us the place and the space to be ourselves, to validate who we are. This is so lovely. Thank you! I would love to be your neighbor.
