Truly a pleasure to read your insightful words. The poem hit me so deeply, I’ve made my own copy to refer to. I’m considering sharing it next week at a politically flavored reading as well.

You are a treasure!

Searching for the stars indeed starts with self reflection. Without that we are only a mere shadow of the true glory that resides within our hearts yearning to shine bright and to be shared as those blinking stars in a dark sky. Love your reflections Erika! ♥️🕊️♥️

I am so very grateful for your writings. Your writings are uplifting, but also poke the corners of our heart that we need to expose and ruminate upon. Thank you Ericka, truly of true importance.

Thank you for this. I'm so glad I decided to stop by today and read your post, including the breathtaking Andrea Gibson poem. I'm about to start a course of therapy to accompany my writing/life journey, and this is like a roadmap/present/touchstone to help focus this Fool toward what matters on the path.
