She puts into words what we may/do feel ….

[Kate Bowler @KatecBowler]

A Blessing for The Good Already Come (And Gone)
from THE LIVES WE ACTUALLY HAVE

People like to say, “The best is yet to come,”
as some sort of guarantee.
Could we say, perhaps, lovingly
(or angrily, if we feel like it):

“Sometimes the best isn’t ahead”?
We lose things, jobs, abilities . . . people.
Sometimes we have crescendoed.
Sometimes the best has already come.

Blessed are you who have finished humming
the tune of parenthood,
because you didn’t have that baby
or they’ve grown up and out.
You who are playing the closing notes
of a parent’s life,
or a friend’s, or a child’s.
You who are retiring or
moving out of the home you loved
or from the place that made you you.

Blessed are you who still have
much to sing aboutnew hobbies and loves and friends and hopes.
You who wonder how best
to spend your time, efforts, resources, and gifts
exactly because they are in short supply.

You who know to keep the end in mind.

Blessed are we, who see with such crisp clarity
the gift that was, and that is,
and that might yet be.
Knowing—really
knowing—that
someday,
the last note will be sung.

So let’s sing our songs about our beautiful,
ridiculous lives.
We will peak and crescendo and
approach the finale,
hoping for a pretty damn good finish.

@DailyPicTheme2 Thanks! This was long enough ago that it’s not a problem now. Initially incorrectly treated by a dermatology PA, after 3 months of prednisone it finally cleared, & the next time, I knew what it was immediately.
