Unrepeatable

I want to be pure, like the day I was born and evolve lovingly, wisely, untainted by mayhem and disaster. If anyone has anything bad to say, they should keep it to themselves. If anyone wants to hurt me, they should walk the other way. If anyone lies to my face and lies about lying, they should peddle their falsehoods elsewhere.

I haven’t walked on rose petals but I’ve learned lessons which have lasted a lifetime. There are roads less taken for good reason. Bring a friend. Don’t go there alone. There are paths so difficult, no one would choose them on purpose. There are passages that change your life forever.

Growing gracefully means bringing the past forward, with love, the parts worth saving and the others, the hard places you’ve learned from? Bless them and let them go. Be purely who you were in the beginning; wisely innocent. Go out as you came in, sweet precious, miraculous gift.
