What seemed secure because it was “known” backfired, causing more unnecessary damage.

Celebrated
Happening across a like-minded cohort.
Hidden From View
The pain of fresh betrayal.
Where Eagles Fly
Above my lair I heard their call as two pair vied for territory and bonding.
(Savage Daughter – Sarah Hester Ross)
From my beloved eldest.
Mother’s Day
My children are wild weeds
Brought up to seed dreams
Strong spirited like the oak
Crafting wisdom as the owl
Adapting flow within winds
Ocean tide ebbs and swells.
(Everybody’s Talkin’ – Harry Nillson)
“It’s A-Live”

A purple iris root mass finally sprouting!
“First Ladybug”

First garden sighting!
When Germans Do Techno
Many Tribes
It is hard to find where one belongs when descended from many.
Accountability
It must be enough to maintain my own, rather than being required to account for others’ lack of responsibility.
Advantage
Instead of freaking out, she let the energy carry her.
Enough, Already!
I do not want to be injured, anymore.
Response To A Company
“Dear Customer Service,
Your denying the reality of my dissatisfied experience with your sub-par product reinforces that I shall never recommend, nor ever buy from, your company again.”
Discouraged
I feel, very much.
Advice
It was suggested that I not say I am injured.

(Run Away To Mars – Talk)
Fighting Ground
When insurance pulled its 3rd party exam sham to abruptly cut of my financial support, I knew any time for retraining was pushed to ending.
So I jumped into more classes than I should have due to my injuries in order to gather as many marketable skills to put under my belt as I could.
Being an optimist, even though I began flailing under the increased performance intensity of networking to keep our housing and increasing to four days of classes and travel, I hoped this could rebuild my functional capacities.
But “lo and behold” my “crashing and burning!”
Injury symptoms have drastically worsened and I have to drop classes to respond to my body’s warnings.
The hope in all of this is that since I fought and created room for the extra classes against external pressures, if I can hold this space I might still finish my certificate.
Compliment
The dentist was very kind to say that my teeth are the perfect opacity.
Maneuvering
I have learned to even outwit myself.
(Sister Moonshine – Supertramp)
Opting Out
Perhaps the best thing that I can do right now is just say, “No.”
(Strong Enough – Sheryl Crow)
What’s Real?
I think I bolted out of the gate when my support was cut off – and now I am just seeking shelter.
A New Therapy
It is becoming clear that despite my interest in joining societal employment, in order to do so I am being required to shelf my dreams and basically wipe my identity.
Instead, perhaps I will learn a new healing modality…
I must regain my independence.
A Place of Stillness
Meditation is not the way for me, but manifestation is an opening.
In The Quiet
What quiet?
There is no quiet – only noise.
Chattering and yammering while pulling from too many directions.
Benched
Handing over the reigns to someone “more skilled” does not feel self empowering despite delegation of responsibilities.

Goths In UnGothly Places
(All Time Low – Jon Bellion)
SideWinders
We are told that we can only express ourselves within limitations (if at all allowed), and that we must choose only certain facets of self to present to others.
No wonder it is rare to find someone who is consciously “here” – for we are too often discounting our own wholistic relevances!
Modes
Switching between them rapidly can feel like having multiple personalities.
Positive Reinforcement
There are advocates and kind people.
“Salvation”
There is a brush-on application medicine now being used in dental offices that helps interrupt rapid decay.
Foggy Chance
She was offered to preview a mentor’s script, and she had to give no promises.
“I’m not sure if I can – quite literally – but I want to very much!”
Liam Neeson As Cupid
Love Swept
No gentle landing
Having given it all,
The storm engulfed
Leaving only the fall.
Injustice
A sense of rage that boils blood
And eventually leads to rebellion.
(Foolish – AJ Mitchell)
Dissuasion
After the agency disqualified her by the same documents they had used to qualify her for services, they came back and said that if she gave up her career focus dreams and became another cog in the system, then they would help her with Speech Therapy.
Routine
I keep doing the same “workout,” willing my components to reconnect and reboot.
Compromised
In order to be allowed to stay with a brilliant man, I needed to not exhibit my own brilliance.
