Kindness is Free

Let go of your shame 
And you'll be able to love
In a way that has scared you
Yet you've always wanted

Don't fear your compassion
Your care and kindness
Scared of the scorn of those who won't 
They're not stronger because they don't

Just be, liberated
Free yourself of your perception
Don't always try to ease the anxiety
Both of yourself and others

Sit with it
Walk with it
Talk with it
Accept it

The greatest part of letting go
Of the worry and indecision
Is you never miss them
Because they never change things anyway

When you pause 
Let yourself rest
And when you can't
That's okay too

It's okay to feel
It's okay to be too much
It's okay to be exactly who
You want to be

You don't always have to share
But it's okay to share too
The ones who care for you
Will want to see the real you

Sharing isn't the same
As sharing everything
You can be understood
Even when you say less

But more is okay too
Don't censor your heart
Just because someone else
Would say it different

Love yourself
Love the ones you love
Have fun
Be present and free

Marleeeey, I've got something for ya Tut tut tut tut Come here boy I wish I could call for you one more time Hear your collar clinging, running to the sound of treats Clattering on the floor along with your claws I wish I could feel your breath, hold your toes Rub your chin, brush your fur one last time I miss your weight on my chest I miss feeling paralyzed by your cuteness Commanded not to move to make the most Of the priceless moments of your touch I wish life wasn't tragic But tragedy is part of life And death is a tragedy  The comedian in all of us wants to rage  Set fire to the absurdity of it all  Why do we endure all this pain Because there's so much more than pain We also have joy and love and peace The pleasure of a back scratch is worth it all Thank you for all of your snuggles Your mischievous self interest As innocent as my children's smiles I can hear you in the rumble of the world Traffic echos, music whines, and I feel you I miss you already, my little m...

Yay Anxiety!

I gave you more than you asked to receive. I misinterpreted you sharing as a desire to feel care through the expression of understanding and thought of you. The distance between us is too broad of an expanse for you to expend the energy to keep in touch.  I get it. I don't agree with it, but I accept it. I don't need to convince you otherwise. Knowing you this briefly has taught me what a longer connection never could. Vision taught me that a thing isn't beautiful because it lasts. It's a simple truth, but it resonates. I wish it wasn't over, but I also see that it is better for me in ways that it ended so quick. What do we owe one another? You told me it amounts to nothing. I think you're right, but I think you missed that a good relationship is never owed. We choose it. It's a verb we do because we want it. It's not about debts to be served, but service freely given. Or maybe you already know that and just don't want to give any more. Thank you for...
