STRONGER

Posted on october 3, 2018

"Hey, what have I got?
Why am I alive , anyway?
Yeah, what have I got
Nobody can take away?

Got my hair, got my head
Got my brains, got my ears
Got my eyes, got my nose
Got my mouth, I got my smile
I got my tongue, got my chin
Got my neck, got my boobies
Got my heart, got my soul
Got my back, I got my sex

I got my arms, got my hands
Got my fingers, got my legs
Got my feet, got my toes
Got my liver, got my blood

I've got life, I've got my freedom
I've got life
I've got the life
And I'm going to keep it
I've got the life"
(Nina Simone)

I am
Stronger than I think
Stronger than you think
Stronger than they think.
Stronger than I was
Ten years ago
One year ago
Yesterday.
.
Something I saw in my mind yesterday, between panic attacks and feeling stretched too thin.
Old patterns. Lack of love and support.
What is trying to pull me down as I push to rise rise rise.
.
And I think that, if I keep repeating myself this, I will be able to finally take flight.
.
That's what I kept whispering while sawing each tiny letter. .
I made the ring for myself, in silver with a herkimer diamond quartz. I didn't plan to make it for sale. But I feel I have to work more with this energy, and that maybe someone else needs this message.
