Wow deep I had to read every sentence now I want to express what's happening in our country starting Los Angeles, but I feel this fit all who seek the light but stand in the dark not blind but unable to see where they stand, Emma love title because if the wind is hitting you, turn around and find the truth. Thank you for sharing such an Excellent write.
As humans, things don't come naturally to us. We end up making mistakes and then correcting them (or attempting to!)
There are works out there that boast greatly about the perfection of their characters, but we need more that we can relate to, where we are broken, hurt and try to mend - that's how we can learn, empathise with others and move forwards - through acceptance and then change.
Loved this piece, keep on writing!

'As humans, things don't come naturally to us. We end up making mistakes and then correcting them (or attempting to!) How right you are to add those three final words"
Misunderstandings, misinterpretations, misconceptions, are catastrophic, fracturing, creating life-altering negative consequences. We need more human literature, unity of all life, more love, compassion, and understanding.
You know how to think and more than likely how to be, Michelle.

Yes indeed acceptance allows for smooth transitions, towards change, thank you, dear heart.
I do agree dear Emma.
(when truth whispers: ' Remember, we are - or should
be.. humans being human.)
The above words are needed. We need to be human. I liked the people of Germany left baby items for the Ukraine people escaping war by the train station. I hope and I pray. We learn. Every life had value. Thank you dear friend for sharing the amazing and needed words.

Plus, there can be an advantage in not reaching the top, some of us are so easily distracted.
EmmaJoy,
What a muddy existence we humans have chosen for ourselves. on one hand I doubt there is any other species who have as much fun sharing food and comfortable times and everyone in agreement, on the other, we always have to find someone to bully Except in sport, and by extension during war... because we always find a way...
and all the while, every day is one less day,cno matter the lessening power of arms, no matter agility or frustrated fingers... " and they come and go so fast "we inch 'cross space to touch with smile or sigh -
asking for willing acceptance

Perhaps looking ahead, trying to plan or consider how.. is an advantage? We are who and what we are tho' do have a say in the matter by sharing what can and should be shared. However, to each his or her own.. ..
