What my destiny was...
When a young girl...
My destiny was to be a good daughter...
To be a good student...
To learn right from wrong...
As a young woman...
My destiny was to seek my path of the future...
What would I be, what would I become...?
What is it that I will do to better this world...?
When I became a wife...
My destiny was to be a good and faithful wife...
Loving him until the day he died...
When I became a mother...
My destiny was to nurture and to love my sons...
To hold them when frightened, to comfort and guide them...
To teach them right from wrong...
To become good men upon this earth...
Now all of these times have passed...
I am left with myself...
I thought my destiny would be to live in beauty, tranquility in a beautiful part of the world till the end of my days...
This, now, has taken a sad and lonely turn...for now it shall not be...
I sit here now, crying, feeling broken, feeling that I have lost my path...
So now, where does my destiny lie...?
One needs something to live for, a reason to stay on this planet...
Feeling as if you no longer have purpose...
Well, leaves one feeling so empty, so alone...
A vessel afloat and drifting...
So what is my purpose...where, now, does my destiny lie ...
I have no answer to that question...
My heart feels so scattered, feels a float...
And my soul is bleeding...
What am I to do...where am I to go...?
Dreams shattered in an instant and fragments lie everywhere...
No longer a full piece...
Only the shards of what was hoped to be...
Fragility, vulnerability, the unknown...
Where does my destiny lie...?
Until, I know, I shall sit with this sigh...
The sigh of not knowing, of the unknown, of silence and void...
Breathing each breath until...
Revealed unto me...
Where my destiny lies...
With great peace and love to all,
Maria Joan Juarez Hidalgo Beam (Boheme)

“Letting go means to come to the realization that some people are a part of your history, but not a part of your destiny.”

“The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.”

“Compassion hurts. When you feel connected to everything, you also feel responsible for everything. And you cannot turn away. Your destiny is bound with the destinies of others. You must either learn to carry the Universe or be crushed by it. You must grow strong enough to love the world, yet empty enough to sit down at the same table with its worst horrors.”

“Your soul knows the geography of your destiny. Your soul alone has the map of your future, therefore you can trust this indirect, oblique side of yourself. If you do, it will take you where you need to go, but more important it will teach you a kindness of rhythm in your journey.”
