Safe haven

Do you have a safe haven? A person or a place? A place where you are comforted. A person who you trust. It could be a room or a church. It could be your boo or your friend. It could be your sorors or your sistah girls.

If your safe haven is a person or persons, these folks hold your confidence and lift you up. If they talk amongst themselves about you it is for the good of you. They collectively have come together to help you feel or do better. If you argue you are forgiven. You can say anything and be who you need to be. You do not have to be "on". You do not have to be perfect. This is a safe zone. No judgement. You have history and your history of shared experiences strengthen your bond.

You can create a place that is safe and comfortable. You cannot create people who are safe havens. This comes through trial and error. You will get angry maybe even refuse to talk for years. What I will tell you is this; the universe will bring you back together. God knows your needs. You will recognize that the conflict; although necessary, is no longer strong enough to keep you apart.

I remain thankful for my safe havens; these women hold me down and up. I remain grateful for their gifts of love and friendship.

I am hopeful that you recognize and embrace your safe havens; before it is too late.
