In appreciation of WE

Here's some words to celebrate

the complex, subtle ingenious ways

our minds adapt and then portray

the issues in our lives.

It's only real to have some things

that need some extra figuring

in fact it's more than normal

when you consider that our lives

are made of thousands, millions,

billions, zillions of connected parts,

from cells to systems, processes

which keep our beating hearts.

From what it took to make a thought

and put it into words you sought, to

surviving, thriving, paying bills,

raising kids, healing ills.

We are the best at finding ways

to cope with things that fill our days and

then at times the mind adapts to

do its best to keep us ok.

because the truth is we are

all just living in this body/mind

so why not give ourselves some time

to feel ok to know that what goes on

is not our/my/his/her/their fault

but just the stuff that life's made of.

And so we can release what's stuck

we're good at that, we dance, we talk

and do things to remove our rut,

reclaim our peace, disrupt the shit.

It's not the same for everyone

but there is no shame, there is no one

that can change your mind unless you want -

you are the source, you are the boss

of your existence, therefore I say

go easy on yourself today!

and see that you don't know it all,

it's fine to feel confused and small

it's fine to struggle with your feelings.......

-there isn't always an answer, there doesn't have to be.

it's just this life, this existence and its complexity.

Let's help each other out.

Have a lovely weekend. Share this with someone (whilst subtly suggesting they join my mailing list)
