You know a lot about me.
You know that I am an advocate of curiosity and seek to learn more and more from each day and experience. So much, that often, I cannot sit still.
You know, that I’m a woman who shares much with the world. Much of myself.
But, maybe, not as much as you’d think.
That I’m a single parent. I give so much to the two that came from my magical within.
That I’m confident, yet, in my humanity, vulnerable to life and its ups and downs.
You know, that my oldest kid is labelled by society as “other”. And that, although transparent, I still struggle with this fact.
You know that, I seek to do things in excellence, in and with gratitude, and that I must serve and give back. Even when, even if, I think I’m doing too much. I have a desire to do more.
That I push myself so very hard. Oftentimes, not letting up.
You should know, that most times, even I, don’t know my own strength. Yet and still, positioned with the knowledge that I am immensely powered by the Most High.
That I often feel alone on this path of life.
That even during times of weakness, I know that I am never alone and there is no reason to ever be afraid.
Writing as therapy.
