Fastforward 2016
So much has happened
So much heartache and tribulations
Navigating a world structural designed to push you away
Having to fight back over and over, and... over
Not out of choice really
But then the non-choice becomes a choice
You turn it into a choice
Ploughed my way through it all
Of course
my plans were nebulous. I had no plans in fact. All I knew, all I had was a
strong internal voice telling me that I needed to detach from that place of
belonging, that I needed to leave my 'safety', and that in this way I would
somehow build a version of myself that I would be comfortable with.
In many
ways, being a woman outside the box of the cultural expectations meant a
confinement that I could only escape by leaving.
My escaping enterprises
And the power of hand sight and one day after the next
Because time writes in itself many more stories (not scripts) that we can even dare to imagine
But I am not trapped anymore in the 'here and now'
I am past, present and future all at once. Nurturing, circular, inventing and re-inventing
Redemption. Possibilities
Intertwined stories
