Birth

Some things are so difficult to face

There are paths we walk down

That lead into wildernesses

Of tangled brambles and thorns

And there are ways we become frozen

We cannot even fully see

At the time

There are opportunities we may squander

Due to fear

Chances we regret not taking

And with old age

There is no reprieve

And no forgetting

As much as others tell us

To put the regret away

Or deny it

And still we have to find a way

To keep living

To not let those deep regrets

Derail us

Life is full of pain sometimes

Especially when our soul that drowned

In rising tides

Resounds its sonar deep inside

And as the waters move

We fear we are being strangled

Or dying

When really

Through this fearsome phase

Another more profound

And wiser part of us

Is being born

"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. And we must, journey into, these, unknown parts of our own selves, to, discover the truth that had been, waiting for us to, uncover, and, we must feel, everything that comes with this.
    Experiencing everything, fully, and properly, and, only when, this process had been weathered by us wholly, will we, finally be able to, emerge, as our, new, selves.
