PAWPAW'S MESSAGES TO MY GRANDSONS
Pawpaw loves Connor!
I composed the original Choose Me as a
religious / inspirational poem in the late 1980’s. I focused on the desire to
fit in and have a place to call home that children feel so intensely.
When I reread my creation in 2020, I saw a
different pathway for the end. Through decades of life experiences, I have
learned that the only person that I need to have approve of me - is me.
I am now at peace choosing to set boundaries
on people and situations that may try to pound my heart into submission to some
unhealthy dependence on approval.
And now when I
Need one on which to rely
I feel confident to simply choose me.
