bitter taste of Defeat.

________________

I have been so overwhelmed with Joy that I thought

I could not contain it.

believed I could not bear another moment of it.

circumstance could impair my conviction.

could sway my belief.

dream of mine that I was not convinced I could make a

reality.

empowered.

circumstance could ever take away my worldly possessions.

I have lost all my worldly possessions and been

humbled by destitution.

my life.

I was too ignorant to know when Compromise was a

good thing and there was no outcome at all.

I have been a Hero - to my partner, to my

children, to my parents, to my siblings, to my friends, and to

strangers.

nothing good was accomplished.
