1ST OF june… It’s a pleasantly grey, rainy day. I don’t have to work and can snuggle right into it. Aaahhhh.
I told my beauty school tale at the Entre-Slam last night. It was a good experience and I definitely wish to support it. I didn’t ‘win’ and I wanted to. OfCOursE.. right? Not to say I was not lauded for the story or my efforts. Stories that had physical/mental health triumphant touched the hearts of the judges, as they did mine and were winners. Totally understandable. I’d do it again and I just might.
All hail to the Victor
That rises above anguish
leads the way to Courage’s door
Takes the fear of death and dying
To the place where freedom calls to joy
All hail to the Victor
That rises above self destruction
Takes the raging sea to a calm shore
Surrenders the negative to the gift of living
Embraces their Light to shine and share once more
All hail to the Victor
Who faces fear trembling
On the edge of life’s jagged abyss
Risks the leap into life to have All of life
Mixes the unlikely with the improbable to find bliss
Hail to the Victor
Who feels joy in a new day
Who finds gratitude in the wind
Who feels the sacred in the mud and dust
Who share kindness with strangers
All Hail to Us All
For our living and finding our Way.
