Slur

I beg your pardon, I did not slur,

you’re mistaken it did not occur.

I’m okay, in fact I’m totally fine, 

I assure you I can hold my wine.

It must be your ears, full of wax, 

before you accuse, get your facts.

I am not drunk and I did not slur, 

but now your face is just all a blur.

At times it can feel like everything is falling away, like the petals on a flower, those things we held dear one by one drop away.  Life as we know it changes and it can feel like everything that has been established over time is breaking down.  This can be frightening, we might go into panic and try to cling onto what no longer serves us any purpose.  Nothing stays the same forever, if we are to progress we need change, we sometimes need to be out of our comfort zone to move forward.  Accept the changes that come, even the difficult ones and trust that they are all part of the greater plan.

Nature Lessons 179

Our senses help us make sense of the world, sense of touch, smell and sight assist us in navigating the world around us. But what about our intuition, our sense that something is afoot maybe, those feelings inside, pictures in our head, the things we just know. How much do we trust this sense, the one connected to self.

Just saying..

It’s impossible to be all things to all people. The best you can be is true to yourself, speak from the heart and own what you say. If people like you that’s great, but there will always be those that don’t, those that for whatever reason don’t get you. That is absolutely fine, after all who wants to be a carbon copy of everybody else, for they are traveling their own journey. It is impossible to please everyone and the difference in each of us is what makes us each individual and special.

To give the best that you can is all you can do, to speak thoughtfully and with care is the priority. When you’ve left the room, those memories you leave behind will be real and you will be remembered for the individual you are. You are what you say, your words will either inspire or confuse, use them well.
