I believe the magic
That is people,
And the unremitting wonder
That is found
Undaunted
In their hearts.
I believe the small,
Persistent,
Staunch soul rumble
That continues
Shaken but unfailing
To grow
Through the hardship,
Making handholds of the worry
All the while.

Thank you, dear friend. You’ve been on my mind … and you are, as you know, in my heart. We are stronger than what is happening around us, especially when we remember to breathe … hugs!

Thank you … A bit of the “you can’t change what is happening to you but you may be able to change what you make of it” thing … And … while some make a lot of noise and may not be the best bargain, most people are amazing. I keep being reminded of it. Keep well! 🙂

Yes, and if we cannot find it in ourselves to trust others, perhaps we can start in baby-steps of trusting ourselves … or taking a chance to trust – a little bit – some things around us. Nature. The sun. A pet. The smile on a baby’s face.
