Make me vulnerable and open,
To welcome love and criticism as equal partners,
a listening heart, awakened, bleeding,
forgiving and understanding.
It is not weakness, but strength, and eternal desire.
“I will persevere in the way of integrity;”
Psalm 101
Instant gratification or the desire for immediate pleasure
Meryl Streep in Postcards from the Edge
“I don’t have the patience for it”
Sadly sums up much of an earlier life
Let me now embrace humility and love and gain … everything.
“one’s life does not consist of possessions”
Gospel of Luke
My Guardian Mosquito never leaves my side,
Always there to correct my path needed for everyday things,
lovingly annoying as my ear buzzes with immediate sounds of wants of the day,
as a Spitfire chasing a Messerschmitt, the desire to complete a mission is loud.
Martha can relax in the knowledge that love is paramount over all else.
“Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things.”
Gospel of Luke
