Succinct


I love succinct writers
who can express the mess
In short simple sentences

People who can carve through
the morass of life
cutting to the chase

I have to hunt it
chase it down
work through it

Seek the nuances
and sometimes dismiss them
because life isn’t
one size or one fit

It is filled
with ifs - buts - maybe’s
depending on the shape
in which it arrives

It is a thing of I
personal
unique
complex

A way of different truths
that may make no sense
even to the creator
but are still real

Valid to a heart that understands
infuriating to one that doesn’t
a journey to those who care
like me

My way
Your way
My way seeking your way
until understanding is almost there
but never quite enough

To come to a real conclusion
or to be

Succinct

I'm a writer, public speaker, medium, and spiritual thinker. I suffered from acute anxiety from the age of 16 until I was well into my 50s, when I finally found methods that helped me to put it behind me. My struggles led to me exploring life through poetry, then plays, and over a 15 year period I made notes for a self help book which I published in 2015. Details on the book page. Although I am a psychic medium and loved the work, it didn’t feel right for me. It was an utter privilege, but my path was the exploration of what it means to be spirit in the real world and how we can make practical use of those abilities. Nowadays I write, blog, and teach soul-centred living, which is a gentle way of undoing past programming and connecting to your essential self, or soul. If you’re interested email me and we can chat. No pressure, it’s right for you or it’s not and you will know. The groups meet on line so no going out on cold, wet, winter’s evenings. On a personal note, I’m based in the UK. Married with five cats, no children, and four grandchildren, thanks to our inherited daughter, who has gifted us four beautiful little people that bring us such joy. Hope you enjoy the blogs. Deb xx
