 Sunny days

In November

What a gift

The pleasures

Of nature

Is mine

For enjoying

Today

Broken souls

 God,

What are you doing to me?  Metamorphosis is happening. Anger occurs. You show up to show me what serves me. Anger is leaving me quicker these days. Acceptance is getting to be easier to swallow. I’m admitting when others are right. This one right here used to sting worse than a thousand bees. When I want to isolate, you aren’t giving in. You continue to shower me with what I need, not what I want. I’m finding what I want is not what I need most. What I need is what You are giving me. A love that is not transactional. A love that doesn’t need to be reciprocated. A love that is not dependent on external forces. You are loving me without preamble. You are loving me deeper when I am honest and broken. Broken souls make the best vessels. 

Love yourself and one another

Regine

Yes

 God

You knew

You know

What I’m needing

Before 

My mouth opens

The way

You love

Renders me

Speechless

And humbled

When you make

What I can’t stand

Into something

I can’t live without

Love yourself and one another

Braces

 This day I may be getting new leg braces, and I’m nervously excited. Growth is being grateful for things you once despised. I’m looking forward to stability. Stability is underrated. Form and function at the same time. I used to want to wear Blahniks, Choos and Louboutins. The shoes of the sleek and chic. Braces are not sexy, but falling isn’t either. Maybe the journey is to make braces the must-have accessory.  A girl can believe it. Maybe. Here’s to far fetched dreams. I’m writing this to remind myself that I may have growing pains. They’re expected. Usually, I don’t respond well. So maybe I need to treat braces like the fancy footwear they are. 

Love yourself and one another.

Bring

 Cold outside

Warm inside

Breakfast is cooking

And my heart

Could burst

At the joy

Simplicity

Can bring

Gratitude

 Gratitude list

You all continue to lavish me with all the love and support. I can never thank you enough. 

Fireplace time. I love a good warm fire warming me up. 

The cutest fur babies. 

Leftovers

Tell me yours?

Gratitude

 Lord,

I don’t understand the purpose for what I’m going through. I’m having to trust what I don’t know. I’m scared. I know you’re with me. For that I’m grateful. Thank you in advance. 

Gratitude

Will be 

On my lips

No matter what

Love yourself and one another.
