"Alive"
I welcome it ...
If hurt permeates
Trickles deep,
Deep down inside.
I welcome it ...
Even while fearing
Its power to split
Me open wide.
I welcome it ...
The hurt,
The pain,
Processing
the feelings.
I welcome it ...
Even if the entire
Experience leaves Me
Once more reeling ...
I welcome it ...
Because at least
I know that
I am still alive.
Hardness has
Not settled here
And somehow
I will survive.

All that is heard need not be spoken ....

My thoughts and prayers go out to the people in Turkey affected by the 7.2 magnitude earthquake. I have several photography friends who live and work in Turkey. I am anxiously awaiting to hear that they are all doing okay ... Ati, Tahsin, Bekir, and Fikret.
10/27/2011 I have heard back from my friends in Turkey and thankfully they are all doing okay. I am so thankful! I will continue to pray for healing and recovery for those who were not so fortunate.
