And….. this poem marked 10 years of this note book. These words mark a new chapter, a chapter of life, where I share. Where I wrap myself in bravery (who are you not to be big, apologies for the miss quote).
This book started as it set out on an adventure, sold up everything i had off value to pay back debts. Closed down my building business and left my flat. To go on a pilgrimage to nowhere.
The last 10 year have been a journey. The person i was then and who i am now….
I want to say- this is my gift (to the world). I cannot say it is well written or contains great wisdom. I cannot say the words here are true, or a complete reflection of me, it isn’t! I have kept certain scribbled lines as ink on page, bound by cream and brown leather. This book, well used and oft’ neglected. A place where the most secret words could rest un-molested and unfinished. It has been my companion and truest confidant. I bless this book, but for me the words can not, forever lie confined. I have to name these words as an offering to the world. If they are an offering then they are not mine to keep.
With love.
