Magical things

Life’s harsh lessons have taught me

That true happiness

Does not live outside

My soul

That all that glitters

With the appearance gold

May in time

Be tarnished by the mistake

Of believing in the dream of illusions

Becoming deeply lost

In the mixed up state

Of soul confusion

Life has taught me

Instead I must

Work with discipline to cherish well

Every single day

The happiness I find within

Those wonderful things

That feed my soul

Was it a ‘mistake’

That at the tender age of 17

Life derailed me anyway

Removing me from

The human race?

And even as I bemoaned

My outsider state

Believing in the lie

That happiness lay outside

Another part of me knew

That idea was no way close to

My soul reality

These days I find my meaning

In those nourishing and unchanging things

My soul honors :

The beauty of nature

The wisdom of the storm

The elegance of the blooom

The loyalty of the canine

The dancing candescent rhythms of

Soulful music and poetry

It is in these

I seek my peace

For the rest of the time

I remember to trust myself

That the only true happiness

To be found

Lies within

Through choosing to live

Centered deep within

The loving container

Of all of these

beloved,

mystical,

magical things

"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.
