“At the end of the day, we can endure much more than we think we can.” Frida Kahlo
She She had given of herself in a longitude of fertile generosity wide, though not yet the best of her, for something felt stirs at her very core unleashed, but time has dimmed her memory now leaden with struggles past, of the glories of her youth where she learned to conquer the world and make it shine. ©Paul Vincent Cannon
I love this line: a longitude of fertile generosity wide,

Many thanks M.B. So glad you enjoyed this. Those last lines are a paean to beloved who forgets her solid contributions and achievements. I think it’s true of most people, we forget or one negative diminishes the good.

Yes, I see it everywhere, and they forget how significant they have been/are, swallowed by the mundane. Gah! Thank you so much Liz.
