Also your honesty that some behavior might give you pause when it comes to opening up. Unfortunately, that's the world we live in.

I like petal as the verb there in your haiku.<br /> <br />There is a tension that exists between being a witness and being the one.

Even when we think we have nothing left to give.Xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09037544390731217891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4856662679041828863.post-36776958758921265842017-10-30T13:06:42.745-04:002017-10-30T13:06:42.745-04:00I love your message & your sharing.
