Dear Anne ...


Long last, the time has come for
even you to take the walls down
to allow for a better look at yourself.
Too many years have passed and
ending your self-imposed exile
really will make a difference this time.
Take that first baby step, then leap
over this last hurdle with purpose
so you can tear down what remains of
everything that holds you back from
living the life that is meant for you.
Failing is not an option this time.


Yours, forever and always, in all ways,


Anne


p.s. thanks Carolyn, for the challenge. your entry was inspirational and it was great reading the others who met the challenge.

"To and From Anne (better late than never for Carolyn' s letter challenge)" came in an acrostic "Letter to self".

This is an inspiring creative work of art.

I enjoyed the precision and the profoundity of this artistc work.

Thank You for building bridges to link mankind.

May You enjoy a memorable Season.

I don't know what the challenge was, but this surely exceeds it. Don't take this as an insult, but it sort of reminds me of the Matrix...you know...that desire to finally take the friggin pill, and find out what the heck is really going on. Except this time you are looking inside. I love the line "really will make a difference this time," because it tells two truths, but it comes out rooting for one.

OUTSTANDING--you've met and exceeded the challenge

especially love the last two lines:

"...Living the life that is meant for you
Failing is not an option this time."

BRAVA!

(((HUGS))) and love,

karla. :)
