Don’t try and control me

Please keep your fear and mistrust to yourself

If someone reaches out to me

Don’t load all of your insecurity into me

I was born to be an open book

And that is not about to change

For you or someone else

That said I know there are boundaries

But my boundaries are for me to set

Not you

So please

It frightens me when you make threats

But I am not prepared to abandon myself

Just to stay safe on a shelf

That keeps me in a place

I cannot be free

To breathe

To express

To be me

Do not try to control me

"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 think there comes an age in our lives, that being controlled is beyond our comfort zone…..
