A letter to my Mother on Mother's Day
How do I tell you what is in my heart when all the words in the dictionary I could use would never be adequate? Those words don’t exist. They are words of the heart; never spoken, never audible. I know, being a mother now myself, that you hear them. They are silent to all but you and me. Love, cherish, thankful, grateful, on and on, but never ( Read more... ) -
Damn, I was just hit in the head with a brick...
I had just written an entry (trying once more to be more diligent in my entries) when just as I was about to post it - the brick hit and after bouncing off my head, landed on the "delete key". That is the only explanation I have after comparing myself to a sloth - spending a lot of time hanging around and not doing much else on LJ ( Read more... ) -
The deed is done
He must have known when I phoned what was coming. Answering machine picked up and I left a message for him to call me back ASAP (well not quite ASAP, but it was inferred). No reply. After waiting several hours, knowing well that he would be in after a certain hour, I called again. Machine answers...I am not going to talk to you on your ( Read more... ) -
An addendum to the previous post.
The look of appreciation by the delivery guy when I opened the door, was what I had hoped to see on your face when I opened the door to you. Looking back on it now, the delivery guy made me feel what you didn't, can't or won't ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
It appears over the last couple of days, oddities have been occurring, more than usual I might add. This has given me something to ponder, as normally this happens over longer periods of time so not quite so obvious or at least not as noticeable to me ( Read more... ) -
I am not dead, just haven't been journaling
I have been checking in to see what is going on in the lives of friends and others, but haven't been inclined to write. It appears that I do better writing in others' journals than my own, when I do! I think my sabbatical is about over and will be making an effort to begin journaling (I know, grammatically incorrect) once again ( Read more... ) -
It's been forever and a day
I am beginning to wonder if I believe in predetermination or making our own path. There was a time that I believed our lives were predestined, and lately, I have begun to think that while we have free will, outside forces can change the course of ones life. So I question predestination and try to understand the implications of choice ( Read more... ) -
A voice from the past
You know a true friend, when no matter what happens or the length of time that passes since you were last in contact, evaporates after "hello!" Such was my night and I know that voice will be there, no matter what! Thank you for the call! -
Running
Ever have a dream that you were running away from something or somebody, but didn't know what or whom? I haven't been dreaming it, but in a strange way living it. It is difficult to explain, as there isn't anyone or anything chasing me. More a metaphor for the feeling I have been having the last few weeks ( Read more... )
