Dinner used to be

Anxiety used to paralyze me.

For many years, I allowed it to set my table and sit head of seat.

I would have anger prepare the cuisine, with recipes straight from regrets book of suffering.

Resentment help make the dessert and coffee, both made from sadness; bitter sweet.

I never could get through a dinner without a toast full of depression and self defeat.

But after rearranging the seating with grace and care, there is only one chair and I sit there.

Thanks to self- worth I changed the service and entrees to be prepared.

I loaded them with joy, peace and love, and plenty to share.

I now make a toast with hope, to endless meals.

with happiness as the host.

    Your art in a pair of twos in one day! WHAT! Now that’s a treat right there in my book! I better appreciate that! I want to cuss up a storm right now because this is so good! Holy freaking Bleep! Bleep! Bleep! Bleep! Alright, I got that out of my system now! LOL! I can’t help it! It’s too good! 😂

    Every single word here could actually perfectly sum up my entire story of battling with social anxiety disorder in a short synopsis. So that’s quite a cool meaning that I can have for myself from this too! I love seeing the hopeful side of you again too. That’s what I think of, and feel the most whenever I think about how your writings make me feel. Oh! And your voice once again is so good on this too! 15/10. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

      I am so happy you liked it!!! Thank Goodness it came out! I have had the worst writers block because I just feel like I host so many feelings at a time they literally pile up and nothing comes out the way I want or need. You are my the best at making people feel good about their work because of the comments you write the support you give and your energy that you share. Thank you for always making me feel good about what I write. You are a gift.
