SPRING by Cheri Borowiec

How are you? they asked her ...gave it some thought... and then She said;

Complete

Integrated

Solid

Whole

Strong

Woman

How do you feel? they asked her ...gave it some thought and then She said;

Joyful

Energetic

Gleeful

Soulful

Alive

Awake

Sensual

Lusty

Aware

So it seems that this woman no longer needs the strength of her fortress to be alive and in the moment....to function ....to exist....

She unlocked the door...to her truth....her fortress was no longer needed

she could become whole once again....silent and still .....in the dark murky shadows ....Herself was found ......light flooded back in her soul....she could hear the music again ....almost complete

She wanted to dance .....she wanted to breathe....

But pieces of her soul were missing ....a holy trinity in darkness lost .

without it there was doubt, weakness and fear

contentment and happiness had no depth...

what had seemed exactly as it should be and all that was dreamed of

was ...in truth .....not

She found her way to Him...

She found He gave life to their creation...

She found herself in His presence once again...

The holy trinity.....the missing pieces of her gsoul...found ....reborn ..

rising from the ashes of her burnt offerings

Gratitude in her soul for his trust ...for not looking back this time..

knowing She was really there...returning her to the light of life....Namaste
