Just a little creativity to pass the time…
“On our journey, every little thing combines or detaches to create the greatest sum of our parts!" I Am…
Something stirs within me; an emotion, a thought, a need to express myself, a desire to be heard, a love for something…
Just a little creativity to pass the time…
I am warning that I am not writing any of this lightly or without vigilance. None of the thoughts contained within this post are anything, but uniquely mine.
I deal with this whole situation with the same tenacity I do anything else in life. I like to ask questions and do not take what I hear or see as absolute without them. I am also trying not to be led by the fears. Whether it’s the scariness of this virus, the highly infected areas that my children live in, the uncertainties in which we are all living, the increased aloneness I am feeling, or the memories I sit with in the quiet. I pray for those I know and all those I do not. It is a crazy changing world right now. It has shown us both sides of human nature, although I believe more good than bad.
As I sat on my porch enjoying nature, warmth, and the fact that I and my family are healthy as of today; I notice little things….birds coming right up to the porch to gather seed off the ground, the beautiful melody of my chimes accompanying the bird songs, the simple love of my little dog cuddled in my lap, and the coziness of my spaces. I am grateful amidst the scariness.
A thought; -one I hope evolves into more but for now was enough- I wish we would all see and understand for all our uniqueness we are all the same. Not race, color, creed, nationality, religion, sex or age has made any person better or immune to the virus.
It would be wonderful if we could understand, beyond all the things making us different we are all the same. The essence of being human makes us connected by a sameness. Maybe in this realization we can come out the other side better, more supportive, and more connected.
Praying for the entire world…Health, wisdom, and togetherness! 🙏🙏🙏💕
A little warmer today with sun shining. I feel like Spring…new season, new year cycle, new beginnings.
Started with an outside floral arrangement and a grooming for the puppy. A spring cleaning for the house…clearing out the winter doldrums. Maybe even a little bit of cobwebs out of the brain.
I know winter is not done with us quite yet, but it is a day filled with hope of new things to come.
Just as the seasons change,
Just as dawn turns to dusk,
The sun moves & the stars shine.
Change is inevitable…
As the flowers bloom & die away,
As the trees bud & fall asleep,
The colors turn from bright to gray.
Change is inevitable…
We are born & grow old,
From youth to elder we learn,
Seeing and living life exchanged
For memories and presence felt.
Change is inevitable & necessary.

So many things I have experienced;
Some I can say I never want to walk thru again.
But those moments have broadened my knowledge of what is really good.
The simplest, even smallest, things added together are grand.
Without the heart breaks and sadness….
How would I ever know what is truly good?
Beauty is there…
We are never at an ending…
We are always
Beginning something,
Learning something,
Dreaming something,
Creating something;
Even in death we are discovering our wings.

In the dark recesses of the mind are the answers and confusions. The truths hidden in the darkest shadows where life struggles to shine, whereas the confusions have light cast upon them readily available to be brought forth as truth in disguise. Our truths have been buried by words and experiences throughout our lives. We tend to see the light on the easiest path to attain; by being agreeable and malleable to what others say, what others expect, and the consequences of how we handle situations because of these.
It is our job to be sure we see the real truths and not those disguises. To question what we know in the silent moments of the night; a time when it is just ourselves and the world is sleeping. Search… search for you, let the light of your soul show you the truths and quiet the ego.
