“Marie has invited
us to visit her in Paris,”
my husband said.
Joyful for him as he has
little contact with his
family it would be a scary
journey for me.
Into the unknown;
visiting a cousin
who only eats vitamins
and drinks black coffee.
What will I eat and
who will nourish me?
Food is my only life
support, like a parent
who did not let me down.
I meditated on
my dilemma and
a message came to me.
You will not starve from three
days of eating nothing.
Water Is enough to survive.
Be brave.
From that time onward I
lost my fear of having
nothing to eat
