Forgive me

beatrizesmer

Forgive me, for I failed to heed your gentle call, In the silence, I feared abandonment’s cruel thrall. I longed for thunderous proclamations, a resounding decree, a clear bell tolling, a call that would set me free. In my anguish, I raged and wept, lost in the void, the deafening silence, my senses left destroyed. Why did you not make your presence known to me? I strained to hear, yet your whisper eluded my plea. In my arrogance, I overlooked your subtle grace, blinded by my yearning for a louder, bolder embrace. But the silence was not void, not a … Continue reading Forgive me

Do you believe in the impossible?

beatrizesmer

Do you believe in the impossible? Do you believe in the impossible? A child raised in a violent home, turning out to be the most loving creature of all. Do you believe in the impossible? Learning to write at age 55 only to write your memoirs before illness takes you away? Do you believe modern individuals of an anesthetized society? Can you possibly see further than you can reach in order to grab, grab something from me? Do you believe this world is not out to get you? I was kicking boys, and making girls cry once. Now every time … Continue reading Do you believe in the impossible?

I cannot emphasize …

beatrizesmer

I cannot emphasize this enough. It’s about being actively and passionately engaged in everything you do. Life is not meant to be a passive spectator sport, but a grand stage where every moment is an opportunity to pour your heart and soul into the unfolding drama. If not passionately and with all that you have to give, why do it at all? Sure, there are moments that may seem mundane, tasks that are less than thrilling, and challenges that test our patience. But even in these moments, there is an opportunity to infuse them with the essence of our being. … Continue reading I cannot emphasize …

Happy 2024!

beatrizesmer

May every dawn be a sacred moment, a chance to bow in humble gratitude for the abundance that surrounds me. For the shelter that enfolds me, the warmth of family, the vitality of a healthy body, and the flawed beauty of my mind. For the treasures of my talents, and the simple sustenance of a nourishing meal. May I never forget the richness of these blessings and may my heart overflow with thankfulness at the break of each new day. And as the night descends, may I seek out a glimmer of light, a breath of tranquility, and a wellspring … Continue reading Happy 2024!

I do not know …

beatrizesmer

I don’t know much about a lot of things. I don’t understand how governments can betray their own people, how innocent children fall victim to the cruel sting of bullets, how the earth trembles beneath the weight of our actions, and yet we refuse to accept responsibility for the damage we have wrought. I don’t know when it became taboo to share our deepest sorrows and questions, to seek solace in our collective vulnerability. I don’t know. But amidst the chaos and despair, I do know that there is a sacred pulse, a divine rhythm that resonates in the heart … Continue reading I do not know …

I will love you …

beatrizesmer

I will love you until the stars refuse to twinkle, and the moon forgets to rise, until the sun wearies of its endless dance across the sky. I will love you until the very essence of nature rebels against its own design, until the bird spurns its nest, and the worm turns from the apple, until the apple shuns the tree, and the tree forsakes the nest. As time weaves its intricate tapestry, I will love you through the ebb and flow of our days, as we grow older, as we find ourselves drifting apart, and as the world spins … Continue reading I will love you …

Time, my cordial friend

beatrizesmer

Time, that relentless traveler, passes without discrimination, touching the lives of all in its wake. Yet, maturity, that elusive companion, selects its confidants with discerning care. Maturity, a maiden adorned with the marks of time, wears her wrinkles proudly, a testament to the journeys she has undertaken. Her eyes, wearied by the weight of experience, gaze upon the world with a wisdom born of countless seasons. Clad in unassuming attire, she carries herself with a quiet grace, her uncolored clothes a reflection of her understated elegance. Beneath her weathered exterior, beats a heart that refuses to yield to the ceaseless … Continue reading Time, my cordial friend
