46

 Today I open my eyes and see things with my heart.

I grasp the chaotic debris of my shattered self 

and catch a glimpse of the shining lights, 

which fill up the unharmed parts of my soul.

I'm crushed, I'm broken.

I'm blessed and I'm stronger.

Today I'm 46 and I accept the good and the best,

the worst and the unforgiven.

With serenity and for the sake of my sanity,

I'm welcoming the next chapter of my life

with lots of love, gratitude and new hope.

Amen.
