For this weeks Ese’ s Weekly Shoot&Quote Challenge – Hot  I am using one of my photos and a simple poem I wrote. I looked at a lot of quotes on Hot and found several I loved but I was drawn toward this instead. In the last eighteen-months I have lost the only two people I know who unconditionally loved me and had many of my old convictions challenged as well. At times like this one truly feels they are on fire. I feel this is a go0d thing to be severally challenged, even if it is just us looking at ourselves and testing if we are true to our humanity and all that entails.  I wrote this at the beginning of that part of my personal journey.
