scattered reflections

scattered reflections

A Chapter by Lyn Anderson
"

a collaboration with the tortoise, aka Jon Roggie http://www.writerscafe.org/jtrogue

"
Falling into the mirror,
watching all the
scattered reflections,
who is looking
back at me;
why can't I see?

Feeling my way,
lost in a shattered world,
intricate pieces that do not fit --
a puzzle without instruction,
trying to find out
how to make it whole.

It is disheartening to see many events unfold and shaterring to our humanity when things transpire in evil. But we are resilient and adaptable and I do hope we will make it through. Thank you for pouring out your heart...:)...................

Feeling this... sometimes life seems too surreal and unreal to be real.

I'm trying to avoid writing about the immensity of the grief that people are experiencing lately. It's just too unfathomable to comment on, for me. I applaud you for trying to get your words around what's going on in the world & also in people's individual lives, people that we care about. There's too much sorrow right now. You've done a great job of expressing how this is coming across to all of us, in some way or another. A broken mirror reflecting shards of everything is a powerful image to use here (((HUGS)))

identity is tough ..good thing it typically becomes an issue of growth and development during the teens (according to Erikson that is) Lord have mercy ..what a terrible time ..so glad i am "old" now ;) i like your use of the mirror ..looking into it shattered says so many things ... all complications to finding one's true self ... some never do :( most of them my in-laws bruahahahahah!

ahahaha yes you commented ..must be mine ;)
The question of identity ... I once concluded that I had a million identities ...I do not mean in a Sybil way ... but rather everyone who ever thinks on you will view you differently and differently on different days. Best to see yourself as you would have yourself and embrace it. Clever imagery-driven write here. Pass on my praise to Jon, as well:)
