Aimee - this is incredible! Absolutely WOW! is all I have words to say. I've felt every word of this at some point in my life and what I finally chose to do with it to move forward is where I'm at today! I could also sense forgiveness in these words. Wishing you all the best my friend! Take care and God bless!
Awesome job Aimee!! I could definitely resonate with it from many years ago. I forgave the person but it not always easy to forget!! Keep writing-and blessing us all with your writings!! Blessings to you!!
NOW, my response to your poem. This is another WOW!!!!! You have the ability to move people with the words you craft. As a very gifted writer, keep this up and it may just take you anywhere you want to go!
Yes Aimee there has been. Several years ago now I was invited to join a ParaDressage team in Texas. To train with them and compete in their regional shows. But it would have required that I move there and leave our farm and a husband and many other animals behind. Leave all my family living in this area hours behind. I decided not to join that team. It would have been a huge honor. It could have led to many fancy horses for me to ride! A super coach that has trained many Paralympians! But the cost, I decided was too great. I stayed here and opened my own Riding Academy and ran that for five years. It was the right decision for me. But it was a very difficult decision because I've always dreamed of making the equine competition world a huge part of my life. Opportunities like that don't come often. Usually only once in a lifetime! And does my family appreciate the sacrifice I made for them? Not really. Because I'm Mom. I'm always supposed to be available.
Aimee this was beautiful written and beautiful said. I enjoy reading your poem and it brought me right back when I was younger. We both had a fear share . Now it’s time for us to let go and move on . Thanks for sharing.
Very nice Aimee!! Very thought provoking. I can say, that although I have not lived a rich life always, I was satisfied. What I knew I could not afford was just something that I did without with no regrets. I was happy with what I had. No demons for me to deal with. I feel like that was a gift I needed to appreciate. Glad to hear that you are dealing with your demons and making it work for you. !!!!
You’ve done it again Aimee there are no illusions as to where this coming from. Thought provoking.
All I can say is I think I have lived a very privileged life because those thoughts you are expressing sound very alien to me, I have never known anything like it, the hurt that you’ve experienced…………..
I hope everything in your future doesn’t incur any more hurt, I think you’ve had more than your fair share❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
It’s all required to make peace...powerful line, Aimee! Your talent of your gift with words has given us another heartfelt & thought provoking piece💝
