You’re not really mad that
I’m not having children.
In fact, I would probably
love to one day.
You’re mad that I’m expressing autonomy of choice.
You’re mad that I’m considering other options.
You’re mad that I don’t view that as my ultimate potential.

Flowers teach us
the quiet truth of time
they bloom without hurry
fade without regret
to cherish spring
is to hold each petal
as if it were
a fleeting whisper of eternity.

"I love to paint the colors of nature!"

‘Listen with the heart, comrades, and our souls will surely see the whisper of the living spirit in the trees, her gentle rustle through the leaves, and her myth-making murmur in our shooting of the breeze!’
Then I began to listen.
Then I was filled with gladness––
and that’s when it happened,
when I seemed to float,
to be, myself, a wing or a tree––
and I began to understand
what the bird was saying...

"the longer i live, the more deeply i learn that love — whether we call it friendship or family or romance — is the work of mirroring and magnifying each other's light..."
