~becoming~ Poem by Soulful One

the past is prologue for the present
the Girl, the mother of the Woman
and the Man, the son of the boy
all that came before shapes the present
but does NOT define the NOW
we carry the experiences and memories
of the past with us on our Souls as scars
some long healed or healing
the pain, less intense
its memory growing dimmer with time
others as still fresh open wounds
with the pain ever present and
connected to our NOW

but there are whispers
from the Universe
from the Creating Mother who birthed us thru
our natural mother's womb
She is whispering to us
that healing is not only possible
but available
Solace
Comfort
Healing
Wholeness
Freedom
await us, right NOW
in this moment
and we have to decide
if the comfort of fear and the known past
is greater than the our need and desire for
Healing
Wholeness
Freedom
found in the unknown future? ? ? ?

the past is prologue for the present
the Girl, the mother of the Woman
but what the forward future holds
and who that Woman is today
and becomes tomorrow
is only shaped
NOT DEFINED
by the past

for we are all so much more
and far gerater than
the sum of our parts

choose ye this day
who you are becoming
