Envy
Those four letters
Give me pause
An anxiety
For I suffer
From it
Started at sixteen
Medically unable
To drive
Now to social media
Seeing the destinations
That capture my imagination
And I’ve not seen yet
I know I’m in
A waiting season
And I’m having
To trust
What I don’t understand
About myself
I’m no longer
Seeking the answer
I just want to learn
What I was too stubborn
To do
Long ago
You're never too old to learn something new.
ReplyDeleteBoy, ain’t that the truth. If only…….. You made me smile.
ReplyDeleteIt's always so hard wanting what you can't have. I need to get better at finding the blessings in my life, but I struggle with that too. Love your words, as always! :)
ReplyDeleteI think at some time in our life, we are all in a waiting season. That is a good phrase you came up with, dear friend.
ReplyDeleteHave a pleasant week.

I think we all have envy in our lives at one time or another. I like what you wrote about it.
ReplyDeleteI can understand that.
ReplyDeleteThat's a nasty word, envy, and if we are honest, we all struggle with it to some degree. To replace it with trust is wise!

The power of the internet and imagination, you can go any place you like.
ReplyDeleteI know the older we get the more we can't do but we are finding those things we can and those that we can't that we want we find films about them and see them that way
ReplyDeleteWE all have envy sometimes. Sometimes more than other times. And it sucks, doesn't it? hugs-Erika

ReplyDeleteA normal human emotion.
ReplyDeleteI think envy is normal. It's when it gets malicious that it becomes one of the "Seven deadly sins." I think these days we all have a bit of envy for those who are more easily able to pick up and go.
