I'm pleased this poem has reached some folk for the first time. I worry that everyone's probably already read all the same stuff as me, that everyone's already <i>written </i> the same as me, which is daft really, as I go to other people's blogs to enjoy their voices and I always discover new things when I do. I'm glad those lines spoke to you. As I was saying to Brenda, they were the ones I woke thinking about today, too. My husband has faced redundancy at his job once a year for four Christmases in a row now, and last month they made extra ones and we escaped again. So soul food's more important than ever. Your husband's lucky to have such a loving family and a brave, spiritually savvy coach for a wife. I hope things work out well. In the meantime, sniff that new baby's head a lot! Thank you, Tess.

This is so great! I needed a little inspiration today. What a gift he gave you and we are blessed to have you share it.

My favorite part?
as long as you keep your thoughts raised high,
as long as a rare excitement
stirs your spirit and your body

My husband lost his job a couple of weeks ago. This is a great reminder for me!
