epiphanies, clarity, aging and a sort of gained wisdom

Mustering courage
Is the way firward
For any heart

You're my salvation in the dark, C
Ty for all your loveliness, your support and making me not hide this spill because you said that your comments meant I couldn't... lmao.
I am extremely grateful for you.

I feel that this spill  has many levels to it and I certainly understand that we really truly are, our own worst enemy. Happy you’re breaking free from your chains and looking outside the box Susan
Well said

Tim,
Thank you for reading and your nice compliments. I am really grateful for them and the RL add. Your thoughts are valuable to me. I just feel it's more about accepting what I constantly feel I struggle to accept. I am sure tons of people do...I'd like to think I'm not the only one..
It flew onto the page but it was a difficult post because I feel it's not really poetry it's stream of consciousness vomit... hahaha. I know, eww, gross
Yet kinda true
I'm lucky that you are nice enough to lay down your POV. Ty, again.
Much love and respect,
🌹

For me it's around 3am... that's my hour of clarity & resolve, when everything makes sense and I know exactly what to do and who to be and how to live my life... and what to say to assholes, and how to parent teens, and how to make people love each other... and all the other impossibilities in the world!! Thanks for writing this one down & sharing. Even if daylight crumbles the resolve, it's good to remember that place exists so you can hold onto a little bit of it at a time. See, you even manifested part of it by posting this!
Bravo.  :)

k.
You and I have an invisible line of mental connection I think (it's probably brought about by love of hockey... lmao) you described exactly the process my mind ticks through as well. I hadn't thought of posting this piece as brave, not really until reading your comments. You made me think and agree. I'm appreciative of your kind words and thoughts, allowing me to become a little less hard on myself and strengthening my resolve.
Much love and respect,

I will pray you find your hope and dreams in 2021.  Keep on writing.

You're hopes and prayers and appreciated greatly Francisco!
Ty very much

....strong woman can you please exorcise my no longers ??? ...... BV you are an inspiration! Your candid reflective write is an authentic and beautiful ''Blue''print to taking back your power. I absolutely adore the courageous you. Your words are beacon of hope for better days ahead dear poetess.... you say with age comes ''Wisdom''. so essentially what you are saying is that  I don't have wrinkles, I have ''Wise'' cracks????....Beautiful Self Reflection Blue!!!

FF,
I'm not sure if I am as brave as your beatific words portray. Although, I am working on it. You're kindness and faith in me is so generous and I'm truly grateful and cherish it all... every bit.  
Ty for the RL add and all that you do to support me

There is so much good to highlight in this beautiful, resolute poem. You have made for yourself goals that I have striven to achieve my whole life. The opening line is so powerful in it's self-loving message...it reminds me of a quote that has set me free in so many ways, "What others think of you is none of your business." Another kinda funny one that woke me up is by Oscar Wilde, "Be yourself, everyone else is already taken." I love this re-dedication to caring for all aspects of self, "My soul, mind, body and heart will be looked after, exercised in a manner that celebrates and removes any stagnant stench." And this point of view is so desperately needed in 2021 after a horrible year of hatred's reign, "I will no longer have any form of hate slither into my psyche.  
To fester is to become infected and gangrenous."
Bravissima, S❣️❣️  

Oohh my, B
Your comments had me beaming this morning and I'm truly appreciative. You have such a lovely way with your comments and thoughts, I love how closely you delve into the real heart of things. Ty so much for reading and all your kindness.

Dear BV,

That’s the spirit! It is liberating when letting go of all those knots in our heads holding us back from our successes in life. I always wonder why so many of us are wired like that? Well, I’ll have to solve that mystery another day. I’m glad you’re sticking to your “post all” instead of your “fuck all”. It’s proving quite beneficial for those of us who read and cherish your writes. H🌷

Dearest, H
I love seeing that you visited overnight, what a treat while I drink my coffee and read your thoughtful comments! I'm so glad you enjoyed reading this, H. It wasn't an easy post. Perhaps one day, I'll be filled with more than enough confidence and when looking back, seeing how I used to worry, it will make me laugh and laugh - in almost non-belief... Ha!! (yeah, right!) ... lol... I can only hope. Our human nature remains a mystery for another day! If you ever figure it out or have thoughts.. let me know!! 👍🏻 Thank you for reading and as always, your particular brand of TLC.  
Much love and respect,  
🌹

It felt like a prayer, an affirmation that lifts the spirts and propels you into the person you want to be. I guess the years give us something more precious than what we ever afford to buy, wisdom.

Stellar work.

I'll take your wisdom as well, Walter!! 👍🏻 lol..
I appreciate you reading, the list add and your understanding of the impetus behind this particular write.
I'm extremely grateful and thankful for your insights
