I heard a line on/in my favorite movie ~ Love Jones on the concept of love. Statement: "Love is what and with whom you make it with". But my greeatest gift this year was finding and discovering an extended family. Family sharing similar passions and goals, that being the love of one of the greatest arts ~ POETRY. And this year I was blessed with my poetry family.
I am an only child and well throughotut my life I have have always clung to cousins as siblings in the past and as I grew up my freinds were the siblings in my life. But we all know that time comes along, and well sometimes you simply just grow apart. Individuals are in your life at the time in your life that they are needed to be, that's a ll apart of the divine design of the most high. But see despite what people think, family doesnt't rely only in genetics. And for once in my life, I finally feel apart of something, spectacular. I can honestly say I have never felt that way- ever.
Not only do I feel within the core of my spirit, mind and heart that I belong but more importantly I'm seen for me and accepted for "simply" being me, loved and admired for "simply" being me. I can sincerely express that I love my poetry family. Not only have I met some spectacular, talented indviduals, but the kindred spirits and unique bonds that have been one of my many blessings. Family is what and who you chose them to be. Family extends farther than blood relation- it relies in the spirit of love and acceptance.
Until my next post, Peace, Love, Prosperity & Endless Blessings!
OneLuv,
