Be Numinous

In nature, there’s no need to be the brightest star,
the finest flower, the perfect Peacock. To be a star
among stars is liberating.

To have your budding and blooming protected,
respected, applauded, is a magical encouragement
to your growth.

I was never enough or always too much and felt
blighted, judged, discouraged. I just wanted to
be beautiful ~ a hopeless fantasy, an impossible
mission.

I have never been less than beautiful. If only I
had believed. After all the years of tattering, I
have finally found my wings.
