I Found a Nugget Today
I found a nugget today
Amidst the past hurt, heartache, tears and pain
As it turned from dark and ugly into light and even shiny gold
When they turned it around, I saw it from a different set of eyes
My quest for powerful and freedom had turned into struggle
Because I failed again to understand that creative tension is a must
For nothing can exist without this
As I was enlightened about my present quandary,
I remembered again about my design and the delight I felt when another fully experienced what I bring to the table.
So through the birthing canal I came, transitioning once again
With Doulas and Midwives present, with Wisdom and Womanhood watching
I was powerful once more in the center of my weakness,
Sweet surrender to what is and what will be
Embracing the Truth I have found in me, tears falling
These stories are my future not my painful past
Moving forward… each hurtful piece collectively making the nugget bigger than the last
As this resonates, it also illuminates and dissipates into my life in a thousand places
Past, present, future.
In a moment in time I learned a valuable lesson so rich
This pathway is my choice, no one forced me into it
So, I will take this treasure chest of nuggets and go where ever they lead me tomorrow
Allowing my cup to be filled with joy, pleasure, delight, great expectation, pain, regret and sorrow
Cause, I found a nugget today
