A Rock In My Shoe

A Rock In My Shoe

By
Heather Beary




There is a rock inside my shoe, and I don't know what to do.

When shaken it doesn't roll, just sticks in deeper in my sole.

Oh, how I am blue because the rock stuck in my shoe.

So I ripped out all my laces, seeing specters making faces.

Sadly I did not find the cause of all my pain.

Searching for its source drove me literally insane.

Unannounced to me that clever little rock,

 had hitched a little ride to the bottom of my sock.

Loss

 Loss By Heather Beary Loss is a painful thing. Such deep heartache it does bring. There are so many things we've lost. Such heavy burdens, at unmeasurable cost. From those, we love, to parting with friends. Relationships no one mends. Many variations can be thrust upon us. Loss of a home, job, or financial status. Yes, there is so much to grieve. But things do get better. I have to believe. Life can be painful, life can be tuff. Some days you may feel that you have had enough. In fact, it can drive one quite insane. Just know I feel your pain. Yes no two, are quite the same. Your loss is only yours to claim. But know there are others, like you and me. We empathize quite deeply. Yes, the loss and hurt will remain. But I do promise time will dull the pain. So go at your own pace and you will be just fine. Eventually, your life will realign.

Kindness

Kindness  By  Heather Beary    The most beautiful thing you can ever be is kind to all others despite what you see. Kindness is beautiful.  Kindness is free. Kindness and love is the ultimate key. When you treat others with kindness and care, you see those keys will take you everywhere.  You hold it all in the palm of your hand. You have the power to sculpt this land. Why not create something divine? Just add kindness and you will do just fine. Just one act will create a ripple.  Then the kindness will begin to triple.  Isn't it wonderful? Isn't it strange? Just how much a little kindness can change?
