Joyful Ruins

Discovering joy in the hard places


Guiding Lights

I thought the compass

within me

would lead me back to myself

or prayers to God

meditations

disciplines

but in the end

it has been

my dearest friends

and family

reminding me who I am

A collection of

who believe in me

more than I do myself

My guiding lights

Credit Due: Guiding Light by Foy Vance really inspired this poem.

About Me

An obsessive journaler who loves meeting others along their journey and giving them a hand to hold through pieces of writing. I write about the heartbreaks of life and the joys, the ups and downs, and I often learn my greatest lessons and miracles from nature.
