Soar High

"As I write,

I create myself

again and again."

Joy Harjo

We endeavor to be perfect in just one way.   A perfect nurse, teacher, or companion may be sought after, but there are multiple parts of us needing to be recognized, exercised, and honored.  How different life would be if we were groomed in all aspects of ourselves rather than family tradition, expectation, or  designated profession.  

We can become a nurse, teacher or companion, but there is no thing as perfection.  How boring if we were all perfect in a row.  Our uniqueness adds our personal hue to a color scape that no one else can fill.  There are splinters of creativity lodged in our DNA.

The nurse might be the best figure skater in the region.  The teacher might be a well known antique dealer.  We must discover all parts of our lovely selves in order to be an amazing companion.  Let us become kites with very long tails adding ties to designate our numerous qualities. Soar high, proud of all you can be!
