Craved Contentment

Photobucket


It’s been a long time coming round, this craved contentment, this freedom from niggling doubt and worry…Suddenly it has arrived; and I’m not sure I know what to do with it.


Does this sound strange? It feels strange, like all your dreams, hopes and wishes coming at the same time, and you let them fall into their place. There is no grief left in my life, all the past pain, physical and emotional, has gone and nothing and no one could hurt further.


It has all been done; love came and went, and I faced mortality head on. The very real possibility of leaving this world behind didn’t scare me, but I felt cheated! There were things I still wanted, dreams to fulfil… And I did…


I am survivor, I am healed and, I am happy. I stayed up late and watched the sunrise from my window.


How about that then world? Peace, Shalom, Namaste...

And, at long last …

Contentment.
