Author Yvette Calleiro has some uplifting thoughts to share today. I think you’ll agree!

Reinforced by fear and anxiety.
Surrounded
Protected
Sheltered
Imprisoned
The incubation –
Agonizing silence led to loneliness.
My inner voice tormented
Until the tears flowed freely
And the salty river healed the soul.
Meditation led to self-reflection.
Acceptance
Forgiveness
Release
Self-care
Emergence –
The walls slowly crumble.
Timid to step out but

To rise up and feel whole.
Resilience
Strength
Courage
Hope
TheRWISARevolution Blog Tourchallenged its authors to write with this year’s theme in mind: A New Year – A Fresh Start. Immediately, I thought of a cocoon. A caterpillar’s transformation into a butterfly is not an easy…

Beautiful poem, Yvette, and so full of meaning and depth. Anxiety is a difficult challenge, and I’m speaking from personal experience, here as well. I’m glad you took the steps to help yourself and get help. I wish you peace and health. On another topic, I just bought a copy of Breathless. It will chill on the Kindle for a bit, as I have some of the TBR pile to get through. Thanks for hosting, Jan!
