Phoenix rising

There have been ashes, oh yes. But they are not you. In the after, you rise to your feet, with reverence for what has been (with honest grief, with honest gratitude). Only then can you shake the gray dust from your wings (wings that have always been there, though you have not always chosen to fly). And now, fiery embers still clinging to your feet and feathers, you gather what’s left, which is whole even as it has been broken. You gather yourself, and then you soar.
