Seeing the sun and all it shines upon
Knowing that is has so much power
Able to go “shine” wherever it chooses to
Beneficial to all living things, the giver of abundance
Every flower, every tree, and every being looks up to it.
Imagine a world without it…
Without its loving touch
Without its warmth
That would be tragic and scary
Nothing would grow, no tree, not any flower, no being.
Things would gradually cease to exist.
I personally love the sun and what it can do.
Don’t you?

Sometimes, life is difficult but along with those difficult moments it is filled with so much more. We all learn from the good as well as the bad times in our own lives. As I get older I am reminded also that life is fleeting and any, if all, moments are what you make from them and take from them.
There are so many things I as a person need to learn and change into something better. I have not been without much disappointment, but in the same regards, I think I too have brought someone much disappointment at one point or another. What do you do with the knowledge of disappointment? You try to learn and move forward from what caused it.
I am not a psychologist or a mental health professional but I have went to college and have a degree in an area where we were taught to be life coaches and life mentors. In my degree of Human Service, we learned that the human mind is very complex and powerful. It is not so easy to know what we should always think or do but it starts with one move forward and then it will reveal to you what you are looking for. Nothing worth having, ever came easy. As in life and in single moments, we need to remember what our goals are, what we want from our life and what we are willing to do to get that.
Difficult times are lessons and we all have them. If you say you don’t then you deceive yourself. Denial is also a hard thing to get past once you start thinking along those lines. First step to change is to come to terms with the fact you actually need to change. It is hard to change if you see no problem.
I sometimes think deeper than I do on other days. I am just learning things in my life as you are. I have maybe been places in my life that you haven’t but that is okay. Just means I can help where others may not be able to or perhaps give advice towards a certain situation that maybe others can’t. Just like you, you have something to offer another person, all of us do.
I write all this to say that I am not to be the sole person another would listen to, because second opinions always are beneficial. One advice might not be the best but with two you can compare and take the best options. I love writing, I love sharing and if you have something to say, please comment. I love reading comments and if you want to share, please do.
This is just what was on my mind this day.
Difficult= makes you stronger and wiser.
Mind and Soul’s Release..
For today breath a little
Take time, your heart can be brittle
Unkind words will soon fade
Just like our bodies often cast a shade
Things worth it are many
They won’t be announced like in the Grammys
Nice thoughts are like pillows for your heart
Doesn’t matter if you don’t make the first start
Patience will come to you
Just in time, it will ensue
Helping you to heal…
To feel
Making realizations forefront in your mind
Directing you like a stick does for the blind
In time you will grow
If not by making errors, maybe in your heart it will show.
Fly with problems, as well as in peace
It’s your mind and your soul’s release.

“You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.”
― Dr. Seuss
“I’ve always envied people who sleep easily. Their brains must be cleaner, the floorboards of the skull well swept, all the little monsters closed up in a steamer trunk at the foot of the bed.”
― David Benioff, City of Thieves
“I want to see beauty. In the ugly, in the sink, in the suffering, in the daily, in all the days before I die, the moments before I sleep.”
― Ann Voskamp, One Thousand Gifts: A Dare to Live Fully Right Where You Are
“The Waking”
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
I feel my fate in what I cannot fear.
I learn by going where I have to go.
We think by feeling. What is there to know?
I hear my being dance from ear to ear.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Of those so close beside me, which are you?
God bless the Ground! I shall walk softly there,
And learn by going where I have to go.
Light takes the Tree; but who can tell us how?
The lowly worm climbs up a winding stair;
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Great Nature has another thing to do
To you and me, so take the lively air,
And, lovely, learn by going where to go.
This shaking keeps me steady. I should know.
What falls away is always. And is near.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
I learn by going where I have to go.”
― Theodore Roethke, The Collected Poems
PAST…
She sat alone on a school sidewalk, watching the other children running and playing and talking to one another, she most certainly did not feel like a part of this whole school playground thing.
ABOUT HER…
From near speaking age she would try to ask valuable questions to learn the answers to. Things like, “How many quarters make a dollar?” or things like, “Why do birds have feathers?”. She was always curious and sometimes that drove her parents and those around her mad. One person once told her it was okay to ask questions, they said, If you don’t ask questions, you will never know the answers.” So ask questions she did.
She was the kind of child that would spend hours outside playing and imagining about things her eyes had not yet seen. She thought to herself often, just because she had not actually seen it, did not mean it did not exist. See that is where her imagination took over and inside her mind she felt sure of what she was imagining, as if to be true. I suppose all kids do that in one form or another, it is just the kid like way of things. She most certainly had that way down pat.
Although she never really did incredible things or the best of things, she did what she did with a heart of gold. She always befriended the lonely kids and she never thought more or less of a person in regards of their choices or clothes, or circumstances. She really genuinely loved so much, back then. To her, everyone was on the same page, the same platform, and the same level. It wasn’t until she reached middle school age, that she saw how that was totally naïve. For her younger years though, she stayed quite happy.
ONE DAY…
There was a television show that came on once a week it was called Bewitched, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0057733. She would run inside from having been at school and watch this television program. It starred a witch named Samantha and she could wiggle her nose or twitch her ear and things would happen. What a concept! Now this little girl would most certainly know how to do those things if she wanted to. Why not? This show had her mesmerized and she certainly watched it with great intent and attention. This television program was so funny and it was good to see how the good witch always won. Despite the numerous efforts of her mother-in-law’s attempts to foil her day, she always came out on top. This inspired the little girl.
Once while at school and during recess she decided to practice in doing witch things. Of course, this was stuff from her television show, and she was able to do all that, right? She proceeded to twitch her nose and speak a command, which usually was something like, “walk over here, now”, or “sit down”, you know easy stuff, at least until she got better at her witch stuff. Here she was pretending to do this witch stuff and she caught the attention of one of the other kids outside, They came up to her and asked her what she was doing. Needles to say this drew the attention of more kids. Before long there was a group of kids following her as she taught then how to practice to be a witch, a good witch, like Samantha on Bewitched. If you could have seen the joy in her eyes as she felt so special, special enough that others wanted to be jus like her. It was one of her best school playground days. It also wasn’t long before things started to seem to be working out. She now not only felt like a part of the school playground thing, she practically ran it!
To be continue…
Hey out there!
I am currently using a spare computer, since mine has decided to be uncooperative. Hopefully I will be back on it, someday soon, and hopefully I did not lose everything on it. Think positive thoughts for me , if you will.
This song is very special to me. Being adopted, I often would look up in the sky and make wishes and try to visualize that my blood sister was looking in the same sky. I did not know who she was back in those early years, nor did I know that she was not but a few years older. I also did not know what she looked like or anything really except her name. So this song took up residence in my heart, and I applied my own personal life to it. I did not also know my bio mom or that I had half sisters and brothers. My sister’s name is Candy and my half sister’s are Wendy and Kesha. My half brothers are Trey and Jonathan!
Meaning and special significance this song is for me. So you see this song has replayed in my heart and mind for most of my life since it first came out.
I hope you enjoy it too.
Somewhere out there
Beneath the pale moonlight
Someone’s thinking of me
And loving me tonightSomewhere out there
Someone’s saying a prayer
That we’ll find one another
In that big somewhere out thereAnd even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishing
On the same bright starAnd when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we’re sleeping
Underneath the same big skySomewhere out there
If love can see us through
Then we’ll be together
Somewhere out there
Out where dreams come trueAnd even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishing
On the same bright starAnd when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we’re sleeping
Underneath the same big skySomewhere out there
If love can see us through
Then we’ll be together
Somewhere out there
Out where dreams come true
It is certainly true, that everyone sees things different from one another.
Sometimes what is not important to one, doesn’t mean it isn’t to another.
I certainly have realized this more and more as I grow older. I feel sometimes we fail as humans, because we cannot put ourselves in another’s shoes. We cannot share a space or place, let alone the same planet without taking into effect another person is here as well. Sure, we have our own cars, houses, possessions, etc. but we are sharing this world.
Kindness goes a long way and it trickles into every aspect of our lives and places we go. Trying to keep in mind another’s feelings, wants and needs are what it takes to live in harmony and peace.
I feel like we also fail to see we are surrounded by nature, as well. There are animals here too. Our world’s animals are being mistreated as well. I hear of terrible things people do to them all the time. They live here too and should have certain respect.
Just reminding myself, and those who live here to of the way to treat others. Their lives matter as much as ours. Be it a person or an animal.
I say, ” Show love and empathy, and it will come to you!”
Peace, and thanks for reading!

What you see should have a meaning,
If you look with open eyes.
Indescribable beauty in details we capture with our minds.
Efforts not wasted or mute.
Things we can create will not end up desolate.
Understanding takes precarious measures.
Finding something special and unique where so much abounds.
No way to count, for there are too many ways.
Design is just part of what it is
Wow, what abstract is this!
