A Step Each Day….the Widows Way

In the comments this week it is clear that we are all up and down a little at the moment. Remember I am no poet but here are my thoughts on courage
I dig deep inside just to find
That courage I know is hidden inside
That courage will mean I take a step each day
No matter how shaky, it’s at least on the way
To finding that peace which I crave to feel
As in falling in love, pain wasn’t part of the deal
So courage is hard but we have to dig deep
And find that smile, rather than weep
So one step at a time is what we can do
As the world needs more people…especially like you.
To all those people who have struggled in grief…dig deep, believe and understand there is a community here which understands.
oh Anna, you are more a poet than you admit and I always enjoy reading your words and always get something out of them. I am feeling a bit more positive tonight but have takne quite a few “first steps” ALONE this week, wears me out putting on this Happy Face and acting like I am fine but it is necessary and maybe if I fake it long enough it will not be fake??? Am not sure about that but after six months in this new place I am doing better …..I think!
