Wicked Wednesday: Highlights

 I like to think that there are more highlights
than lowlights in my life
although I remember an equal number of both.

Surviving a roll-over accident
as a teen
was probably the largest highlight
as there would be no others
if I hadn’t.

Learning how to love myself
how to accept what I was
and what I could be.

Graduating from college
I will always remember
walking across the stage
and realizing I had opportunities ahead.

Falling in love
and being loved
which made my spirit sing.

Having my first child
not as I planned
or prepared for
was intense
and wonderful
as was having my second.

I know that there are
more highlights to come
and at some point
the highs will overtake the lows
as time goes on.
