STRANGERS IN OUR OWN LAND


I wonder if we're aren't all strangers in our own land throughout our lives wondering,
How anyone could be as strange as we are?

It seems like it takes a lifetime
To accept the embrace of enough
That being ourselves is enough
When I look at you, I never think,
you should be more

I just think, "What exquisite beauty!
What luck that I have met you!"

Perhaps it is time to offer ourselves
the same kindness
to open our arms up to our own strangeness
just a thought...

Love, from jules
