Perspective

Perspective.

This day last year was a terrible day.
Utterly horrible and cruel.
I felt many a negative thing and felt there was or could be no escape
from the negativity.

Today I am free, loved, supported, and confident in my capabilities.
I have new goals and new perspectives and I fly on laughter-silvered wing.

I am sitting in my humble little cabin by the water
with my beautiful cat, delicious food,
and a warm heart from a visit from an old-time friend.

Troubles and troubled people from my past no longer affect me
in the old ways and truly in my indifference I find peace
and in setting boundaries I maintain this peace.

I look forward to the lessons life has yet to teach me.
