We are fickle, fragile beings
made of thoughts that disconnect us
and experiences that slowly tie us back together again
It’s amazing – sometimes
how the pitfalls and potholes of life
are often the very things that bring us back to level ground
What is it about proximity to a low point,
that finally garners enough of our attention
to make us look up
Of dust
we are earth and her ashes
yet our spirits eternally crave our return to the stars
We subdue and repress
to the plights of a world we can’t control our part in
just to numb and then hide from the feelings we’ve neglected for
far
too
long
We are fickle and fragile
too stubborn to part with the bank of emotions we’ve saved
as a treasure
as a curse
And we use the excuse of the pleasures and pains
to somehow forgive our shell casts and remains
evolve but don’t change
we are ever the same
we move on
we stand still
we endure
this quotable life 
Beyond beautiful words my darling. You speak straight to the soul.
Thank you precious.
“Evolve but don’t change.” I have been thinking about this concept as of late, wondering about perceived evolution vs. change. We really are stronger than we often think or feel. Thank you for these beautiful words.
Thank you Katia! And yes. God grants us with strength in moments we could never have anticipated. We may not always want to have to be … but we are strong … we can endure.
We endure… How blessed we are to share our pain with those whom we love.
