i have been a thousand different women
A poem & reflection for your week.
Words are mist through my fingers this week, so instead of forcing something productive from my pen, I’m sharing a poem and reflection for this week.
I’m with you,
T
//
make peace
with all the women
you once were.
lay flowers
at their feet.
offer them incense
and honey
and forgiveness.
honor them
and give them
your silence.
listen.
bless them
and let them be.
for they are the bones
of the temple
you sit in now.
for they are
the rivers
of wisdom
leading you toward
the sea.

Take some time to reflect on the many women (or men) you’ve been. What do they need? What wisdom do they have to share?
Interested in sharing your neurodivergent experience?
If you self-identify or are diagnosed as neurodivergent, I would love to have you share your experience here in this space through a written interview. If that interests you, please email me at info@tarynnergaard.com with the subject line “My Neurodivergent Experience” so I can send you more information. Contacting me is not a commitment, so you can decide later if it’s something you’d like to move forward with or not.
I can’t wait to hear—and share—your neurodivergent experience. I believe in the power of story to challenge the structures that exist to disconnect us from ourselves and others.
