Building a home within myself

A floor
of self appreciation
and confidence

I must carpet
with my memories

Walls
of my hardship and joy

I must build
and decorate them with my dreams
affixed

To a roof
sealed from the rain of hate

Yet transparent enough
to allow love's light

To transfix
my soul.

In our house we are the strength to keep the house of cards from tumbling. Somewhere along the way, we become the children we were born and our fears are shaken by pain. Some people condition and others; harden. To heal...we look within and open the door to light a little at a time. With each time the breeze blows the door opens a little more until....Viola! You find your light. Sometimes you meet someone who helps you open it. That makes it even better! Your pen shows the power is opening in you....inside where your shine lives. I see it from here.
Awesome colors like a sunset Pierre.
Love.
Susan

A shaman advised me to open myself to love at few years back. I'm myslef now and full of the love I need because I allowed love in. It is possible to do all things when we understand what we need then go for it. Your pen opens that door Pierre. Your passions are growing wuth your words and you shre them with us and open that door.
Love,
Suse
