I knew motherhood came with worry, heartache and guilt but its the lack of control that drives us mothers crazy. To be able to place imaginary wings as they fall down... to be able to slow them down when they need to go slow. To spare them from all and any pain. If you have previously read these pages you know what comes next...
So I left the coop on the search for peace and meaning to it all...
On the earth...
On every living thing...
When I feel blue I bring my partner in crime along on my adventures because she makes me laugh and she is wise and really gets me. So she dances through the marsh and we catch the sunset. We celebrate each sunset to me is filled with hope that there will be a new tomorrow. Another chance to make things right.
Yesterday I did not make the bed or put any make up on or even cared if the clothes were a right match but my eyes were focused. I could see and feel it all and when I came home I was relieved and relaxed. I felt as if I have sat in a confessional and rid myself of each sin.
Feeling cleansed and renewed I am ready for the weekend.
