SOAP
One day I’ll be the Sum Of All Parts in me,
The good, the bad and all that I’ve planned,
I’ll be at the cusp of what I’ve foreseen,
Not a dream but a reality close at hand.
One day the objectives and breakthroughs,
Will come together just like I designed,
I won’t have a million but I’ll be rich,
With joy, compassion and all that is kind.
I’ll handle unexpected happenstances,
With cool, calm and strategic reserve,
Putting good vibes out into the world,
And in return getting the love I deserve.
One day all the goals I’ve drawn and written,
Will come to fruition for what I’ve yearned,
Gaining wisdom through life experiences,
Fully comprehending everything I’ve learned.
And though I know not everything is perfect,
I will be in a better state of mind and degree,
Because I’m confident that one day in the future,
I’ll be the Sum Of All Parts, the best of me.

"And though I know not everything is perfect,

... herein lies the key, it's not about perfection but about authenticity - and 'good enough' at any stage on life's journey is, well, 'perfection' in a sort of way.

Thank you Josh (and thanks for adding to your RL as well).
I think it's something that has to be practical, to be able to be flexible and deal the reality that nothing is perfect, but that's what makes it so great.
Hope you're doing well, stay safe.

Dear W,
Well this was a breath grabber! What a lovely way to take stock of what is really the important things in life like compassion and love and appreciating not only the people you value but of oneself! For me it isn’t about being perfect and whatever that might mean but for being the best version of me and trying to stay kind while being true to me. Sounds simple and yet every day brings new and irritating challenges, like soap! Literally soap! The entire universe is out of soap! Breath breath...excellent and lovely write!! H 🌷

Hi Honoria,
Thank you for that wonderful comment. As we grow older we see the value in the lessons and experiences life has given us and we apply them wisely. It really makes us and shapes us, it just takes work.
