Soar over the...

what would you add?
26
Dreams not drama…thank you, Louise

Detach 
and soar 
like the blue heron
Her long legs 
trail behind 
with ease 
and grace
Confident in
her direction 
No crazymaker
will ruffle 
her feathers
I stand in awe 
Soar over the drama— 
Soar over the trap—  
Her wisdom essential 
Detach 
and soar 
for your dreams 

As I prepare to release A REAL BALLBUSTER: Untangling Testicular Cancer Together, I'm reminding myself to rise above any drama that may arise - whether from my inner doubts and fears or external sources around me.

I’ve been given the power to choose, what thoughts and influences I allow into my mind and heart during this time. By grounding myself in hope, I can soar over any negativity that tries to cloud this journey.

What do you want to soar over today? Come join the conversation on Run to Write.

Thankful Thursday!

Thank you

for restacking my post yesterday. Wondering how to restack, click the circle-arrow icon wherever you see a post, note, or comment worth sharing. It allows readers and writers to find each other’s work…the best compliment.

Thank you

Claudette, Faith, , Clark, Mom, Olga, , Michael, Renate, for the great conversation, poems, and wisdom. I’m so grateful you are here with me.

Thank you, Felicia, for running 12 frosty miles with me. I’m so lucky to have a run buddy who runs in all weather. :)
