Where I Am From

I am from parents who thought they were finished having babies.

I am from one of the great wonders of the world.

I am from happy and carefree and from destitute and depressed.

I am from the Earth.

I am from strength.

I am from freedom.

I am from choices and consequences on a humble and glorious path.

I am from the same stuff that the moon and black walnuts and striped heaving mountains and flashing bright fish in the river are from.

I am from mercy.

And kindness.

And always forgiveness.

I am from the love given freely from my siblings and parents, from my husband, son and daughters who make me feel like I am one of the great wonders of the world.

I am from heaven. And heaven on Earth.
