heart stretching...

 

i have noticed

that when my heart is stretching to make room

for new relationships and love

that it often hurts -

there is a shifting that is taking place-

i am missing my dear Vayda very much

yet i am also full of love

for the newest little ones in my life

my heart is growing

and healing

and sometimes that can be painful

last night

i shed hot tears as i thought of my sweet little friend

and i marveled

at how in three short years

she has become such a part of my

very heartbeat

and missing her is hard.

i also love

love

that there are new small ones

exploring and toddling around my garden

and their love and acceptance

of me

is filling up my heart spaces-

there is always more room to give love and to receive love

and i love that!
