Ancestors loved us into existence
They upheld their own struggles
with faith for the future, for their children,
and grandchildren.
I think we need faith to light the way,
See around dark corners that are
naturally obscured by the unknowns.
Faith naturally is not easy. It’s asking to believe before there is proof.
Superheroes don’t really exist like society
fixates on,
in frequent, Marvel movie releases
But there are superpowers. Among these
are Faith, Patience, Perseverence and
Kindness.
No one who came before us was perfect.
Their legacies were not necessarily influential, popular, nor epic.
But their love remains golden for me,
as soft whispering reminders that what’s
worth cultivating, can be cultivated.
Not that they exemplified these superpowers
in every way; but that their regular, human
strength was often good enough.
I think we can all be inspired by “good enough.”

You existed, and you mattered;
and in me, you continue to exist, cultivating…
Persevering.
I joined Cheer Peppers 🌶️ for daily November blogging month just today. I’m not sure if I will post or read every day. It just felt good to join and be in community. So I am keeping it simple: one day at a time, and doing what feels good.
