You are a miracle - Let it happen

Love Never Forgets Your Plan

Have you ever been there
When you thought all hope was gone?
Have you ever thought that which felt right
Seems now all wrong?

Have you once only seen
Darkness behind the light?
‘Cause all you wanted was
To disappear and hide?

Don’t we all get to that point
Once or more times in our life?
When we think it’s all in vain
What’s the use now to survive?

Decisions that we make
Are there to teach us lessons
Things may fall apart
To lead in our progressions

When you pull out a thorn
It goes along with pain
But only if you do
You can heal again

In Love and Light

Thank you, Michael! We need to cross the darkness to enter the light, cross the river to get to new shores and climb a mountain to enjoy the view. All we achieve in this life only becomes meaningful when we have to invest effort which is part of the journey to awareness.

Beautiful words Erika. We do reach those points in our lives at times…but they too teach us a lovely wisdom. That we can reach beyond these times and appreciate them all the more for having experienced them.
I remember very distinctly being trashed as a teenager because someone didn’t want my love and left. It was a terrible time in that teenage angst. Then was totally not prepared for a very lovely young lady who then came into my life…only weeks later. I looked back at thinking this is the end of the world to eyes bright, love all around. And finally understood we need to touch it all, not judge ourselves on such instants and realize we are being given something quite profound.
As is your poem kind lady, those thorns are indeed painful sometimes, but the healing is also showing that love within it.
Great verse, and thank you for sharing the wisdom of your healing in it too 😀❤️🙏

And I think what’s important in this all is the desperation we are feeling about something ending. Only then can we appreciate (and recognize) the new blessing so much more!
Thank you very much, Mark. Yes, Healing is the painful part from A to B… but it is so worth it 💖

In answer to the question, “Have you ever thought that which felt right
Seems now all wrong?” YES! And every time, that feeling leads to a big change in life’s path. It’s not easy, but once you pull out the thorn, healing can begin. Fantastic poetry, Erika!

thank you very much, dear Jan! It so does!! Sometimes it takes a while until we accept that our direction does not fit the path we are walking anymore. I think that is the biggest step to take.

Lovely poem and metaphor about the thorn Erika…. A rose a prime example…. But as we travel through the stem of life, we navigate the thorns to see the beauty of what is about to bloom once we stop and take in the beauty and the fragrance…

Loved your poem Erika… Sending love xx ❤

Oh, yes, what a fantastic example. We only climb those thorns because we know that in the end, we reach the plant’s essence and beauty. And it is always there, regardless of the thorns. Beautiful, thank you for this comparison, Sue 💖
