Our truer self

Maybe the loss of the old self

Is attended by a rush of tears

Maybe there is a host of fears to be faced

Before we can truly say goodbye

To ghosts of the past

That haunt us from the shadows

There are times we try so hard

But all of our efforts

Go in the wrong direction

There is no healing

And no protection from

Further harm

This is when we must go through

The wall of fire

To grow ourselves

And maybe in the process

All we relied upon before will be shed

As we unfold the seed deep within

That longs to grow

Into the flower

Of our truer self

“Step into the fire of self-discovery.

It will not burn you,

it will only burn what you are not.”

"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.
