I came across this beautiful, magical, inspirational poem by Jeanette Leblanc, and just had to share. Read this, and then Go now, and live. Enjoy!
There's this woman I know. You may know her too, or a version of her. For some of you, she, may be a he. For me she stands in the middle of a field - surrounded by daisies. Arms open wide like she's ready to fly. But she doesn't. She knows that her place is here, now, grounded, present. Her two feet - barefooted feet - buried in the grass. So instead she twirls. She twirls and sings, laughs, dances, jumps up and falls down. She gets back up. She is happy. I don't know what she does, or where she lives, or how she came to be so free. But I do know this: this woman is me. The me that I want to be. And I've long been searching for just the right words to give her a face and bring her to life. And now I don't have to. Through the magic of poetry by Jeanette Leblanc, I see this woman more clearly. She now has a name. Her name is Life, and she choses to live it. Isn't that nice!?!

ReplyDeleteHi Jeanette! Yes! You're welcome for sharing! Thank you for coming up with these beautiful, inspirational words. I've also just submitted this to Elephant Journal with a link to your site. I hope this is alright. Hopefully more people will get to enjoy your poetry.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing and including a link. Did you see the redesigned version on the blog? Totally different look than this one :) It's amazing how one's design tastes can change in four years!
ReplyDeleteYes, I saw the redesigned version. Awesome. Bold. I love that you have it as posters. It would look great hanging just beside my little work station here.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and inspiring! Thanks so much! What a great way to start a day!
