This day....
The skies have always been my solace
Looking up to read and receive what
is for me.
I have seen anger in the skies,
a reflection of internal turmoil, that turned
into reflective rays before my eyes...
a reminder that change will come.
I have seen forgiveness in the skies, not for others,
but for myself..letting go and letting in.
I have seen strength and resilience in the worlds above, a reminder to me to never let go of...
You?
US?
The fuzziness I was seeing is now clear...
ME!
NEVER let go of ME!
The worlds above...the signs read...and the changes occurring
These are not for others, they are for me.
For me to remember my strength and worth
is never
and will never
be tied to
"You"
or to
"US"
I am because I am
I am grateful
accepting
and ready

interesting switch from the dyad to the individual. The message reminds me a touch of Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now".

"letting go and letting in" can be hard to do at times,you captured the victory found in surrender and vice versa brilliantly here..

I can tell you are an incredibly strong woman. I love how you know that you come first above all else and that is what will bring you peace.
I can relate.
Heartfelt!

It rains or opens up to blue for you. When your story is true, those skies become your canvas and message board again.
