There are moments that define your flow, the way a river finds way along side its shores. You move along, and move along, and sometimes others with you, help you; provide care and love and are kind throughout and through.

Then there are …

… diversions, unexpected but you knew,

the possibility was and came true.

You do not stop or get out or drown-

You may pause and ponder, and while you know these things are not you, you realize that you no longer nor ever needed those who ridiculed you.
