"You cannot go
through the years
simply letting
things ride.
Stand up.
Create.
Write.
Build a doorway.
Use your body.
Move the light out
from your bones
and carve
your own sun
into the sky.
Rearrange
the tired rules.
Revive."
~Victoria Erickson
I have no idea how Erickson
has found such wisdom at
such a young age . . .
Not seeming to possess much
in the all-knowing department
myself, methinks I want to be
just like her when I grow up!
I imagine we'd all agree that
wisdom comes to us as we age;
alas, 'tis experience which
enriches. Still, there are times
I just want to shout at the
Universe . . .
"Enough with the experiences;
just bring on the wisdom already!"
Seems I'm not much in way of
the patience department!
Just need to slow down, regroup,
learn my lessons and somewhat
patiently await the the donning
of wisdom . . .
