Remember Who You Are

When I look at my little morning glory, wrapping itself around the one sturdy, and consistent thing  that shares its space to allow for growth upwards, I think ,

 ”Remember who you are.” 

Then I see the singular, solitary bloom that exists to make me smile.  In the three days since that blossom appeared I’ve regarded it about as many times.  And again I’m reminded,

 ”Remember who you are.” 

Below the magnificent simplicity lie many tendril vines, searching for something greater than themselves. I think,

“Do you remember who you are?”

 I tenderly and hopefully wrap them around the first and beg them to

“Remember who they are.”

Walking away from the moment I hear,

“You are the vine stretching towards strength. Offer yours.

 ”You are the flower created to offer beauty. Smile for ME. 

“You are the wayward tendril that needs help sometimes and, 

“You are My hands. Use them wisely.

 ”You have a work to do. Do it well.”

Singular, solitary, magnificent and simply beautiful, and ofttimes not regarded.”

    • I AM writing books! I have 3 in the works (a series) and more in the wings. Now I just need some magic fairy dust that’ll type my thoughts as I play with the kids! You are food for my soul Tammy. I really appreciate you. BTW I’m searching for a cheerleader outfit for you. Maybe you could take pics and post them online? HAHA!

  2. Hi Betsy

    I just love your name it is lose to my sisters name and my
    aunts name.

    This is awesome and it is nice knowing you are writing books.
    To bad you couldn’t get a tape recorder and record your righting
    that way than hire a collage kid to type it out for you because than
    if you plan on selling the book you have 2 ways to do it.

    Thank you for sharing with us

    • Hey Bonnie,
      You just reminded me of a time in Idaho when I was picking up my daughter at a friend’s house. The dad was walking around talking into a headset (he was really busy finalizing his new product: the “Furbie”) and I was mesmerized. That was about 15 years ago. You have a great idea. I’m always talking to myself anyways!
