“Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old.” Franz Kafka
A Story In Lines Her bisque skin, carrying the scars of winter's past, coursing torrents now etched like a dry river bed, all delicate parchment, testimony to lived skin, as expiation for love's need, life poured out, a libation of for others sketched across her open face, a story in lines, never spoken, but always told in humble presence.

No, so true, and right now it is getting better for me on that score, PTSD is no simple thing I’ve discovered.

I’m glad to hear that things are going better on that front Paul. PTSD is tough for sure. Many different triggers. I refer clients to EMDR and they seem to get good results. 💖
