Spilled Milk
Spilled Milk by Yolanda WilliamsMy review
rating: 5 of 5 stars"Spilled Milk" is a collection of short stories (prose and poetry), exposing the emotions of a woman in and out of Love.
This book speaks to the emotions we have kept secret...to the part of us we have tried to protect...and to the thoughts we hate to even admit to ourselves. In the end, you too will laugh, love and cry over your own spilled milk.
One persons journey is another persons inspiration!

- I enjoy the process of thought, the feel of words, our commonalities and differences. I also love random conversations with friends and strangers...over tea, or wine.

Oh love,Oh love, clearly in the arms of the beholder.
ReplyDeleteIf both people agree to Love, and work on learning to Love, then Love will grow. If only one person is invested in Loving, then that fresh Love will fade and along comes that new emotion. Hurt, Pain, Anger, maybe Lust, ... the list goes on.
ReplyDeleteThe excitement of newness is such a tricky emotion. Sometimes we are so quick to think that something was fake or "true colors" are showing because the newness has warn off. I believe that the underlying love emotion is always there no matter how the form changes. I think it becomes our responsibility to see ourself as evolving with that love rather than changing since the word "change" can have such a negative connotation at times. Besides, honestly, what is love that doesn't evolve or change......a stagnate mess!! The love did not go anywhere. When love is secure it does not have to present itself blatantly as it did before. It can sit and chill in the back with a tigerita. Love ya.
ReplyDeleteAs Toni Morrison says in The Bluest Eye, Love is never any better than the lover. Wicked people love wickedly, violent people love violently, weak people love weakly, stupid people love stupidly, but the love of a free man is never safe." True love starts with loving the self.
ReplyDeleteLove, like God, is abundant and omnipresent. It is only our mind that clouds what our body, soul and gut knows without question. Changing circumstances make us question our love. Society makes us question our love. Other people, our perceptions, the "what if" makes us question our love. Love will become whatever you make it. That's the beautiful gift of free will. You can choose the way you love, who you love and if you even want to be loved. Beginning, middle and end...love will always be there. Its up to each person to decide how they want that love to grow and manifest in their own lives in order to grow and manifest in another's.
ReplyDeleteI think there's a certain amount of maturity required. Romantic love (solely based on feelings)is fleeting, so it's important to have true love. Someone mentioned this the other day and it really stuck with me.
