I'll Have a Cup of Contemplation with the Cafe Mocha, Please

A morning examining struggle~

Imagining where the invisible boundaries lie~
Angst
Teenage angst
Invisible anger
just not so invisible~

Deciding to let roll off my back
each new rush cutting a gorge down my spine
or
building a boundary
a feminine fortress
shelter from the storm

I wonder if the mortar
can withstand another two to three years
?

hormones on both ends of the spectrum are pretty freakin' intense! . . . such wonderful strong energies . . . I have a couple memories of being 15 . . . I remember Kait at 15 . . .
And now I am learning about peri menopause . . .
I am so very much focused inward right now with (((BURSTS))) of that incredible outward energy and that "knowing" that my whole world is just going to start blossoming at any moment . . . oops, I'm getting lost . . .
I can't quite imagine 15 colliding with 47 . . .
Yeah Intense . . . Positive . . . wicked wonderful . . . with moments of pure hell . . .
Life is grand . . .
And what a great piece of writing!
Namaste my friend, K.

Hang in there and don't take ANYTHING personally. :o)

Thanks those who've gone before me and survived. Many months ago I used the mantra, "I will not take this personally." How quickly I forget.
