“You wander from room to room, hunting for the diamond necklace, that is already around your neck. ”
What will you do with those titchy in-between moments when you used to reach for him. ?
How will you fill that little gap?
It is too much like that yellow sundress you purchased from the vintage vendor in Brazil. Pockets not deep enough to place anything but a slip of paper you’ve pulled from a fortune cookie.
What will it say??
Fortune cookie slips,
dazzle yourself; wear more glitter than necessary.
pause under the hyacinth boughs and take a deep breath.
climb to the rooftop to tip your throat to the stars.
before you pick anything up, put 2 things down.
look for the third way; ask a different question.
Things to reach for when you feel like you’re slipping between the cracks and need something to hold onto that isn’t wet and dirty:
mantra - om namo guru dev namo
(( I bow to the higher power, the creative wisdom, the God/Goddess ))call a friend - leave a voice memo.
look around you - magnify the magnificence of the moment!
