Let Be
A poem —
I’ve been writing poetry for a long time. As a teenager, it was my coming-of-age solace… along with sudoku. A few years ago, right before the pandemic, my life was taking some heart-wrenching twists and turns, and I started diving into spirituality and allowing myself to heal. To find my way. I even wrote my first poetry book (Finding Grace: recovery comes from within). Over time, my life changed little by little, but I was writing a lot of musings in my journal and poetry nearly every day! But recently, after a retreat in Sonora with the COMCA’AC/Seri people (“Somos Uno” article), it occurred to me, “Why not put myself out there? If I’m feeling these things, maybe others are too?” I hope my reflections help guide you on your journey as much as writing them has helped me. Peace be with you ❤
Let Be
control is an illusion
you cannot worry about the actions of others
for you only make decisions for yourself
and hope for the best —
that you are on the right path
be okay with people
they are in your life at the right time
for a particular reason
