Thank you to Tracey, our UK Delivery Manager, for sharing her touching poem on loneliness and the vulnerability of being human. Grab a cuppa and reflect.
Loneliness: The vulnerability of being human
I don’t know if I fit, I am who and what I am, who judges?... Me
Don’t be afraid, sometimes we need help, a face, a place, a cuppa, sometimes nothing helps…
My heart feels the pain in your voice
Listening to me? Hear me
To be alone is fine, lonely is fine, you are not the only one
There is light at the end of the tunnel, keep pushing though the rain
Loneliness is solitude having an off day, it’s a step back that will soon help you leap forward
It’s a strength and a privilege not to feel lonely. Your journey does not have to end with loneliness
My disconnect, my despair, my heartache that I hide my hurt, my loneliness, to protect you
The façade we hide behind, if we let go of the mask we can begin to see, to see each other
To see the vulnerability of being human
It is OK just to be, to be in the here and now and love the word: belong
You are everything you need to be, you are worthy
You have value just for being you
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for listening, the loneliness was driving me quite mad
