This friend is in need
Of a break
Beyond any break just one who cares can give
But, with many thoughts in her direction, offering
Strength
Courage
Understanding
Hope
Light
Warmth
Even guidance
Maybe then her load will lighten
All these absurd possibilities laid neatly before her
Will unfold easily, brilliantly
Not as presented
But as she has so bravely depended
Her heart is ready
Waiting
Longing for freedom
From the past
Holding hands of her children proudly, walking together, a family
She has had enough, enough
For this lifetime and beyond
It is time to offer her
Her vision
Her dream
Joy and a clear path to freedom.

Beautiful words Carrie! ❤
Thank you Kim. So happy you read it and these thoughts are with you know too 🙂
I love this one. It is reminding me to slow down and take care of me. I love seeing a piece of your heart in the things you write, Carrie. xx
Thank you Christine! I am finding that writing from my heart is so freeing 🙂 I just wrote another one, ready for next week, with the slow down theme. Looking forward to seeing if it has the same affect on you. My dear friend is in quite the battle, for her kids, for herself, for the life she is making the best of in really difficult circumstances. I couldn’t think of how to “help” her, these words came easily.

Too bad the hearts didn’t come through 🙂 Thanks for all the love!
