currency…

The past few months for me have been a whirlwind of loss and forced growth.  Loss of a relationship, loss of friends, loss of security… but a gain of a realization of strength.  This “poem”, well actually an IM chat copied verbatim, is dedicated to that.  Thanks for listening…
currency

Brother, can you spare a dime or an ear?

this has been no walk in the park
no recess unfortunately
i am struggling
BUT
my soul is so much better for it
i feel like i am finally living authentically
albeit impoverished
things are turning around
slowly though
i have lost a handful of “friends” in the process
but amidst it all i am strangely happy-adjacent

apparently the currency for happiness

is sacrifice…

  1. You and I have a lot in common… 😉

    I, too, have recently lost a lot of friends, lost a job… but I KNOW it’s all for a reason

    Keep writing THROUGH it

    Wishing you greatness!
