Call me into the deep where you are waiting I've missed the feel of you My head can hear you and my sensibilities know you but my emotions have fallen out the window. Who have I become that my emotion is absent? I was passion now I'm passive and that isn't enough. I don't want … Continue reading Sing for the Light

One foot…keep walking
The wind spins circles around my head I see the life before me and I wonder if I'm supposed to be who I am What is life but the continuing of one foot before another?

The days go by one by one like a blur and I … Continue reading The Edge of the World

Doing dishes is a waste of time. They just grow back!
I've decided that doing dishes is a waste of time. They just grow back! Especially in my house with teenagers and their smaller siblings running rampant. They hide in dark corners and conspire about how to get yet ANOTHER cup when my back is turned. And it doesn't help that the older ones have learned … Continue reading Doing dishes is a waste of time. They just grow back!
