November 26 waitingWell here I'am''
I made it back to my page
For a short while I did'nt think I would make it back here again''
surrounded by problems all around me, I could'nt get over them
or get under them or get around them. A good friend of mine, her parents
lost there home in the fires we had 'an elderly couple both in there early
70's They lost everything they worked hard for all there life '' &
When I heard about this I quickly jumped in to offer them both a place to be...
I feel blessed that I had'nt lost my home and I know I would'nt have slept well at nights
If I did'nt ask this couple to come stay in my home ,besides I know what it's like to lose a home to a fire'' I thought I could be a comfort to these people '' I
found my self listening more then I spoke as I quickly realized I was in my twenties when I lost
my home and this couple are in there 70's'' I had the chance to make new memories...Im not so sure they will....I think I've had my share of seeing sadness enough to last along while it's like
quicksand if your not careful you'll sink deep into it.....My heart aches for this couple and all that they lost ''I dont wish it on anyone. Sitting around only to focus on there lost is'nt helping matters..So my friend and I found her parents an appartment..So soon I can get back to my own life and get out of this sadness mode...I keep telling myself hang in there soon the tide will turn' and things will fall into place and everything will click...Waiting is good for soul , so I've been told that waiting will teach me control I agree that it does make some sence to me...But I gotta tell ya
Waiting is hard as can be!!!!!!!!!
I think I've had my share of seeing sadness enough to last along while...
HOPE THE SUN COMES UP
October 23 U Lately I hav'nt had much time to do much writing or staying in contact with anyone''
For this I apologize...It's come to my attention once again that I must vacate my home''
The fires here are spreading out of control and it's for my own safty that I leave' For now Im safe
but for how long I dont know...I've been lucky to be able to save some of my belongings and some things that
I treasure' Some hav'nt been so lucky'' So I leave here today in hopes that I soon can return home......
I've been down this road before so maybe I can be of help to others who did'nt get a chance to save any of there
personal Idems and the things they most treasure.......And for you I leave you this ,til I return....
U
With your eyes to the sidewalk, Cant Focus on the good, Dont notice all your traits' when you know you really should''
Think life is just a waste, disappointment til the end'' Well Im here to clarify the plus with these lyrics that I send....
Beautiful mind is what you have, Kind soul you've been granted' You've looked past the many downfalls, With the
many you've been handed''Over come high fences that grow on this road, Struggled to smile , Through all the lies
you've been told'' Here comes the truth that all that bad, will soon end because you have inspired this song''
THE DAY YOU BECAME MY FRIEND
LOADS OF SMILES TO YOU ALL September 17 Summer spentI cant count the times I've sat in front this screen and I'd close my eyes and my mind would just go blank' I cant put my finger on it but I know one thing for sure Im not being myself' The wind seems to carry something almost unexplainable with it'' As if it's telling me I have questions that need answers, phrases needs words, memories need voices, crying needs tears..
Seeking Answers
Trying to capture moments'' Good moments and Hard moments'' Because No matter how much life can hand us, Whether it be good or bad, We cannot change it, avoid it, or even prevent it..It will happen, because every beginning is good, And every ending is hard'' Regardless of this truth, We do live through it & Learn from it definitely....
MY SUMMER SPENT was filling in for a local band in another state and I can honestly say the beginning was good and then issues started coming one after the other and everyone wanted to quit I probably should'nt say all as a few wanted to continue on but could'nt see how we could with out the extra help we needed' After a few days went by and still NO effort on anyones part' I found myself losing it , I through a huge fuss I must have looked like a fool spouting off like I did'' But someone had to sing out loud and I figure it might as well be me' After the fuss I was finally heard and they actually listen' It took a couple days but I was able to get my uncle and a family friend to see us through the blues fest..l cannot tell you how happy I was to see my uncle and our friend ,It's nice to have someone around that knows who I'am inside'' Because I never give up without a battle.
I cant play the hero in this one because I did learn something from this ,that is I too was'nt listening. I did'nt realize that til' the day after the fest that I too would be leaving the band. So I did the one thing I tell everyone not to do and that was to never give up No matter how tuff it gets. I LEFT
Since I been home I hav'nt been able to let this go and put it behind me ,toss and turn sleepless nights I cant allow myself to continue to get stuck in what was and might have been Or what was once there...IT IS GONE.....I've got to let it go or it will consume me
In so many ways our mistakes regrets have made us,
Created us into becoming and being who we are today,You can not change this,You can not take it back .Live through it Learn all you can from it'' BUT MOVE ON August 28 Just for 'U' ChristineIve been tagged by

June 26 LIL''OF MEBack to the blogging world'
On this summery night I sat on my porch and saw bits and pieces of the day go by,Tracing the trails of time spinning in circles with riddles and rhyme'
Here it is the beginning of summer and unfortunely I've been so busy I barely took notice of the season changing from spring to summer, just like some of my days lately ,it went by like paper in the wind. Everyday I seen bits and pieces of the day go by 'never in order and never quite the same no relation to the last and none to the next....Tracing the trails of time spinning in circles with riddles and rhyme and the days went by like paper in the wind. Everything changed and changed again. So it's time for me to get the winds moving to a place of peace, rest of mind, it's my home like daisys and butterflys with just the right mixer of the foolish and the wise when the sun begins to ascend' My journey closes and comes to an end, strolling home again...
HOPE THE SUN COMES UP June 04 MY TEACHERSWhat am I here to do' What do I want to do'
As I sat here and thought about the question at hand 3 people come to mind'
Each as influential and thought provoking as the next'' My aunt, Cousin, and Grandmother,
These are my teachers my sages, holders of wisdom, my comfidants, accomplices. My past, present, and most definitly my future'' These are the people that have taught me some of the most important lessons and the ones who have shown me the meaning of my life''. My aunt I don’t think she will ever understand what she did for me' For in truth I don’t even understand all she did. What I do know is she took me in and showed me hope Light and Love. My aunt at 40 something, was still dancing to the beat of her own drum, Still living young and a vigor,> that some teens find hard to match, Still living life and giving joy to others. I became increasingly aware of the significant role she played in so many live's.
She reminded us all to live, Not just carry on a meaningless existence with nothing to show but our material wealth to show for our troubles'' She had fun so did we.'' Cousin, a singer and a good one I might add, I never quite understood how good he was until I seen him recently and as I listened to him sing' I could recognize the talent he displays The passion he has for his craft, and the gifts he gives to to people through his art' That he does'nt even notice, as I watch the people in the audence cry as he performed, and moved by his agony, and frighten by his fury, wooed by his charm and entranced by his skill' Not only do I want to be that good , I want to encourage others to find their passion, to find their voice and never let it go NO matter how hard it gets. I want to be example of what can be done
when you truly love something and don’t let anything get in your way''.
Of all the lessons I've learned this is the greatest>> MY GRANDMOTHER' She has been a christian for the better part of her life..I respect her choices and beliefs. As I persued my own path of spirituality, I started to question why she belived what she did' When she answered she simply said>> JULIA, maybe there is'nt a GOD maybe everything I belive is wrong and maybe when I prays to Jesus>>
Nobody is listening but does it matter though' She said her faith has taught her to love unconditionaly to forgive be compassionate and to understand others. And she told me if shes WRONG OH WELL'' At least she knew she did all that she could and gave all she possessed.' I sat there stunned as I heard an idea so beautiful yet powerful'' I thought maybe I'd like to do that myself, Not become a christian, But to live my life in away that I can be proud of.'' My Grandmother showed me that the meaning of life can be simple as showing compassion for those around me.''
As for myself> If I was to guess what Im here for' I'd say Im here to show what ever gifts I have and
to tell others that they can, and should too. What I do belive is at the end of my life I will be able to look back on my life and see what I was suppose to do' See what my meaning was and smile and if
IM WRONG OH WELL
