Good morning…
I discover the image above and am drawn in by the quiet quote.
“Letting go
will teach you
the art
of being soft and humble,
yet powerful and free.”
Researching the unfamiliar author, I google, “Who is Alexandra Vasiliu?” An intriguing description pours forth.
“Alexandra Vasiliu is an inspirational poet and the best-selling author of Dare to Let Go, Healing Is a Gift, Stronger than Anxiety, and Time to Heal.
…As an award-winning poet, she writes empowering books about bravery, empathy, healing, growth, hope, love, and resilience that captivate readers of all ages. Her stories are designed to inspire and uplift, encouraging people to face challenges with a courageous heart and persist with unwavering determination.

Oooooo, I like it.
It’s so perfect for October, the month dedicated to the KIND30 movement, with it’s tagline “Kindness Is Needed Daily.”
Treasure-hunting more, I snap photos from Alexandra’s Instagram posts.
I happen upon another poem which touches me deeply.
If you feel broken inside like a bird without feathers and wings, please dig deeper into your heart and scribble this message,
“You are not your pain.
You are not your sadness.
You are not your flaws.
You are something else.
You are a miracle
waiting to be discovered.
You are only poetry
waiting for a caring soul
to whisper it
all life long.”
― Alexandra Vasiliu, Healing Is a Gift: Poems for Those Who Need to Grow
For we are the product of His hand, heaven’s poetry etched on lives, created…to accomplish the good works God arranged long ago (Ephesians 2:10, VOICE).
Might we learn the gentle art of letting go?
Be soft and humble. Yet powerful and free. To accomplish the good works God arranged long ago, kindness is needed daily.
