Story Worthy

Kindness encourages stories
from those too reluctant to share
from youth full of inspiration
from musicians just developing
even from the discouraged
unaware their tale lacks worth.

Each one a record-keeper
harbouring intricate plot lines
uniquely brewed, the telling
a revelation – find a good ear,
or a patient pen, and express.

Permission to write, paint, and imagine are the gifts I gave myself when chronic illness hit - a fair exchange: being for doing. Relevance is an attitude. Humour essential.

  6. This is beautiful — such a gentle reminder that kindness opens doors we don’t even realize are closed. 🌿 I love how you describe every person as a “record-keeper” carrying their own plot lines. It’s so true that some stories just need a patient ear or a quiet pen to finally breathe. Your words feel comforting and encouraging all at once. And the image pairs perfectly with the poem. ✨
