 Remembrance, Rebirth, Release Sometimes extraordinary moments of black and white seem colored with time, until the shell cracks, then all that remains are jewel-toned in special capture, where skin to skin embeds prints of depth, drenched instantly warm in remaining haloes for this was back when most had just one parent each, and simpler times were unpretentious perhaps, or because, we did not yet have the knowledge of all we might or should know? As in when is too much, much too heavy, as in when do our shoulders bear burdens of lives past, and when does the past choose to reinstate itself upon the innocent? If we choose to talk our histories, and in sharing bear the story, then in the story, hear the tale, and in the tale, acknowledge the losses… only the storytellers who listen to the leaves move in the wind might gather up the cracked shells of time, then weave them gently into a necklace of honor, to leave among our young… for somewhere in the egg is life, and rebirth… for in the renewal, it is they who will have their own stories to leave, but without the past to draw upon, will have nothing but hollow promise… ~*~ To those that read this… A Blessed Easter… A time of Remembrance, Rebirth, Release. |

If we choose to talk our histories, and in sharing bear the story, then in the story, hear the tale, and in the tale, acknowledge the losses… only the storytellers who listen to the leaves move in the wind I needed this... right now... this morning. *S* To look forward as well as back... to listen as well as feel... yes. *S* Beautiful write! |

Sissie "only the storytellers who listen to the leaves move in the wind might gather up the cracked shells of time, then weave them gently into a necklace of honor, to leave among our young… for somewhere in the egg is life, and rebirth…" And you do just this!!  |

Lives past can be almost more of a burden than past lives....and much more immediate. But remember, not every shadow darkens, and sunlight doesn't illuminate until it reaches something that stops or turns it toward the eye....until then it's just a ray bound outward toward infinity. |
