J's words

Acceptance is everything
And my god how hard that is

To have the wisdom to accept
things are they are
So much courage, and much of patience
Which I am always short of
If I can move above the "what it appears to be"
To "what it is"
I know then I am improving myself
And my journey with it

-Jean Yao

She writes so well and spontaneously too. Often she casually ends up saying things which make so much meaning. She is a writer but doesn’t really write. This poem was actually short sentences she said during our chat today. I saw them for what they are, let her type it all, edited it and lo a poem.
