I fit here
Just like a baby is at peace in her mommy’s arms.

I fit here
Like the feeling of contentment naked in bed
Spooning your lover as their body surrounds you.

Like I was on a voyage
My whole life long
Searching for a destination, that is my own mind’s creation.

No map, no compass, no plan
Just drifting along
Seeking some land.

Not exactly sure of where it will be

Or how long I’ll be drifting at sea.

Yet, for some reason
As I gaze at the stars

I feel destined for that somewhere

No matter how far.

Remember when you were young and you felt no obstacles.  That was before the whole of this world told you what is right, what is wrong.  You felt as though your dreams could come true!  So, what happened?  What changed?  Rid yourself of the majority rule.  Rid yourself of believing that what you want is impossible.  Live it, plan it as though it is TRUE.  Believe it and it will HAPPEN!

I feel the meaning of Friends has gotten lost.  Facebook seems to promote that friends are anyone that chooses to be your friend.  With your acceptance of course.  BUT, to me, a friend is someone I can tell my life story.. my fears and my triumphs.  I truly have only 2 TRUE friends.  I have many acquaintances but only the 2 that I can bear my soul to and know they will not judge me.  I am concerned that the word friend is being lost…

In my life, one ot the most important lessons I have learned is:  FORGIVENESS.  Actually the ones that make you that angry are more than likely the ones you relate to the most.  That is why there is such a deep sensitivity.  Today I released some inner harbored anger at a friend that did not deserve it at all.  Actually he is connected to the person that ignited that anger.  I should not have vented that anger on him.  But, alas, I did. What I learned from that is what a true true friend he is. I apologized and he accepted.  What more can friends want?  Actually, the ability to forgive is the glue that holds true friends together…. despite faults.

So… we often think about what we want and we are convinced it is unachievable. BUT, why do we think that?  Is it because others with negative thinking are certain that nothing you want can be achieved?

The first rule in receiving blessings is to BELIEVE.  You must envision your desires in you mind over and over again.  See it, feel it.  And most of all believe it!  I am living proof your dreams can happen.  It MUST be with unabandoned belief and surety.

I have always dreamed, envisioned, making a living crocheting, creating jewelry and painting.  This dream has been 30 + years old.  I was caught up in a job that I thought I should do.  40 hours, benefits…401 k… etc.  BUT, I had a boss 10 + years younger than me.  He was very critical and often I would just cry.  He told me I was not working to the expectations of the department.  So much more.  I received ‘Employee of the Month’ and other accolades… but still I was shunned and belittled by him.  In fact, I was transferring a call from a very elderly woman that was soooo stressed out that I introduced her to the customer service rep:  “Please take care for she is elderly and very stressed’.  Well, after that, my ‘boss’ called me over and stated I could be fired over that comment.

Enough…. I quit… been doing my dream… creating crochet and jewelry items and featured at a super shop in lakewood oh.  Also going to participate in a Fashion show in Lakewood OH.

Minimalistically has been my goal… what the hell do I need rooms and STUFF for.  Ready to move on to another chapter in my life!

This time in the world, earth is confusing. All the focus appears to be on making the population feel guilty or victims. If you have the ability to eat, than you are okay but you should feel guilty that others on this planet cannot eat.. have no food. Well, there is always someone with less. It used to really weigh on me that I was better off then so many others on this planet. BUT, should we really live worrying about everyone else? I decided NO. We are responsible for ourselves… if we see someone that needs assistance than YES we should help BUT, we are not responsible for the whole earth. Sad but true… it still really bothers me. Wish I could change it all and help all.

Today I woke up… and said; “thank you God… I woke up”!

I moved along the day and created my crochet items… and, as I crocheted… I thought about those I love and who need some assistance.  I crochet with love for those I love.

Hello there Mr. Sunshine! Welcome to a new God-given day!

Thank you for rising up. For reaching out your glorious rays stretching so far and wide across earth’s ceiling called sky!

OH sky, you are so comforting, so dependable. Always, always there. Never failing. You’re there as the sun wakes up and stretches himself upon your canvas and remain steadfast when he folds into his sleep.

AND Oh sky.. when the lights, the stars within you are turned on you hold them ever so close at bay.

Oh stars, you light up the sleepy darkened sky and as travelers wander about Mother Earth, you are there always guiding the way.

BUT WAIT, there is someone else amongst you!

OH MOON.. you are so very shy. Just there always, and always there. Sometimes just a very small part of you. Sometimes half of you. But, there are those times when the FULL of you comes out amongst the stars and you shine.. You oh moon are then so very, very breathtaking!

And then you slowly dip into the edge of visibility and ….

HELLO once again.. Wonderful Mr. SUN!
