This was beautiful. Thank you.

You also are the product of love, hope, wishes and desires that fail.

I was born illegitimate to teenagers. My mother tells me they tried 5 times to abort me.

I felt so sorry for her; the burden & anguish of something coming alive inside you that won’t die. Everywhere around us life is forcing its way out of gritted teeth and retreating hearts, begging to be let in. It matters not where or to whom. Life is relentless!

Some teenager someplace this moment is conceiving! She’s gonna bring forth a you or me into the world. Let’s pray, you and me because we can, that the world and life they all find is less afraid of what they are and will become.

Let us pray that they have electricity and a warm house. Life will always remain relentless and indestructible.

I loved it greatly. It moved me. It doesn’t matter how we were made or where. It does that we are here. Here’s to hope, love and beauty.

Thank you!
