Really wasn’t your faultthis fury that overcame –Words evoked onslaught,a raging river of pain. Didn’t mean to push you,miscalculated my aim,swimming in swamp watersnot a recommended game. You floundered, gurgled,cursed me by name –our love story, now viralbrought an alligator fame. (Image my own. Tale is totally fictional, I promise.)
A kidney stone, coupled with an infection has set me back five days – two trying to soldier through the pain, and three pursuing medical answers. Anyway, I’m on the mend, tired already of this foray into self-pity. Tomorrow, I keep telling myself, is a new day. (Image my own)

Nice work, VJ. I just copied that quote into a blank journal I am preparing for my daughter’s birthday (an annual endeavor I enjoy) I remember seeing Anais Nin speak in Montreal in the 70’s. She was an inspiring voice for me. The art suits the quote so well!

Amazing you got to see her. I used to do journals for my children too. A wonderful keepsake.
