To ashes twisted

A person just informed me that I should look
at now starting a new chapter to my life's book.
A new canvas she wrote
use new paint for each stroke.
Use beautiful colors put away the dark and dank one
don't paint darkness without stars but pretty clouds and a bright sun.
Am I able to do this and carry this pain,
is happiness a possiblity in my future again?
A new canvas hangs before me and in sight
are beautiful colors and maybe I might
be able to paint something beautiful and fair
and be so stunning that others will stare.
How pretty and bright this painting is
a smile to our faces it does surely give.
Thank you my unknown friend
for such a suggestion to help me start over again.

Touched.

Completely moved by your words.

I merely provided the palette.
Become an artist.
Find the most vibrant of colors,
and mix them well.
Some might come by to smudge the marks you chose to stroke,
but if so always keep that chin up,
and head high.
Brush over the blurs,
and form inspiration from it.
If it were me I'd use their own vomit.
The color green would grace my canvas.
For noone would know the hardships I've witnessed..
For they were never "physically" there to begin with.

I always say:

"There are always two sides to a story."

Pro's and Con's.

Keep writing my dear,
and never stop.

((Hugs))

Beautiful writings.
Thank you.

Clean Canvas

Has ultimate and infinte possibilities. I saw a smile recently that was brittle with false intention I wanted to barf. Starting over gets harder the more conditioned you are by the career, it is not easy being an ex anything. You gotta work at it - I do daily and the jury is out regarding how successful I have been at becoming renewed. New life goals are georgeous!  Best wishes and good luck!  ~Lady A~
