Seasons Change

"It's been a long time; I shouldn't have left you...."

  • Eric B. & Rakim, I Know You Got Soul

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Indeed it has been a long time since my last post, as seasons change so do I and the cycle helps me get back to me. I am posting the following entry to let everyone know it's never too late to start again - - - again.

Date: November 28, 2006

Time: unknown

Place: Dreamer's Cove (5 miles off the coast of Memory Lane)

Déjà Vu

I am walking by a bayside

Listening to the trickling sounds of hope and ambition pass by.

I walk a familiar path.

I've been here before, faintly reminiscent of hurt and disappointment.

This place – I was here then and am now

I see a piece of a dream then remember it was mine.

It was here then and it is here now

Washed up along the shoreline

And I walk to see more memories of me,

My dreams.

And I gather them up like fresh sun drenched linen, piece them together

This time they make more sense

Hence I am here again at this place where fighting was once fleeting and discouragement marooned me

My dreams.

I pick up my dreams, carry them, not where I left off but

Off to whence I left…

My Life Synonymous With Spring

For my sparse yet adoring fans wondering like me …."Is Spring ever going to get here?" Be encouraged, use the time indoors to reflect and rejuvenate yourselves on the inside. I penned these poems a few weeks after a slightly hellish but awakening trip to Indianapolis and Chicago O'Hare Airports which inspired me to take more time to do nothing. Date: February 25, 2007 Time: Morning Location: At My Kitchen Table ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Life Synonymous With Spring I see my happiness far off, like the rise of the sun on the horizon. It looks faint but bright and I start to remember the smell of Spring, My well of joy, now's bout empty And I wonder why I feel the way I do I am waiting to abound forward, like the newness of Spring. Brought forth Brought into Brought out of My life synonymous with Spring. But to me I am hard to find Like hedge clippers lost in the weeds of tall grass Like grasshoppers against the roar of heavy traffic I am there jus...

You Are Good Enough Today

A special message for ladies, it's as the songwriter wrote: "Sometimes you have to encourage yourself..." Be Blessed ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Why isn’t being who you are today good enough? Why do you need to be a heroic ideal, a mental projection of who you think you should be in some tomorrow? Thinner, richer, lighter or darker, happier, a heroine of community efforts and savior of the modern world Don’t you k now who you are today is already enough? “You” right now in the present is enough. It is good to have dreams and goals, but do not lose sight of today’s reality because your vision is so far into the future. Don’t miss the blessing under your nose, in your house, in your bed, at your job. Love you in the now and God and the Universe will thank you for it. Be your own best friend, cheerleader, champion, and advocate. Tell yourself – how beautiful you are, how smart you are, how much you love those round hips and big eyes. Mean It. Be th...

Today: July 17, 2009

Today, I put on the spirit of humility... Today, I take my time... Be careful, be deliberate... Today, I let my Lord's countenance be all about me... Today, I serve with joy and honor as it is a privilege... Be filled with joy, hope, and peace. Radiate.... Today, I take the Holy Spirit wherever I go Be filled with Love and offer it in abundance to others... Today, I listen to my spirit first and I leave room for work... Be not, so critical of yourself.... Today, I heed the small voice within, for it is always right.
