Dina

I'm having
To recognize
That growth
Is not
Always
Welcome
By self
Or others
I'm having
To trust
God
In spite
Of the
Doubt
That is within
My heart
I am
Reminded
Of my abuelita
And how
She rose
To every occasion
I dismissed your wisdom
You loved me
In a way
I couldn't understand
I put blinders up
I regret it now
I am you
I see
My soul rejoices
Because I got
To call you mine

  8. Dearest Regine,
    Yes, at certain times in our life we don't clearly see nor understand our abuelitas but time does show us!
    Her soul understands and you are hers!
    Hugs,

  14. Growth and change are hard, even harder when those around us resent or reject the direction we're heading. May blessings be yours through it all.

  23. With age comes better perspective and wisdom, so even though, in retrospect, you don't think you appreciated your grandmother when she was here, she already had that age... so she knew. She knew you loved her, and she probably looked back on her own grandmother much like you do her.

    This is a lovely poem.

  29. As reported by Stanford Medical, It is really the one and ONLY reason this country's women get to live 10 years longer and weigh on average 42 pounds lighter than us.

    (And really, it has absolutely NOTHING to do with genetics or some secret diet and really, EVERYTHING related to "HOW" they eat.)

    BTW, I said "HOW", not "WHAT"...
