Tenderness

This poem is a timely reminder for me today.. Its a poem/post I wrote a while back that I rediscovered cleaning out my email inbox a moment ago.

I will hold onto tenderness

I know you tried your best

To love me

And I know my fears and wounds

Played a part too

God knows

Neither of us holds a monopoly on truth

And in the end

We can only choose to do

What suits us best

But we should never forget

That everyone has their desires and hopes

And sometimes the clash of needs

Drowns our hearts

In deep seas of longing and regret

Which is why we must hold onto tenderness

And not forget

We do the best we can

At the time

And we can always learn

From each experience

How to be

Wiser and kind

Truer to tenderness

"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.
