The Greater Good

February 4, 2009

So much on my mind.

              on my heart.

         

Trapped in this corporeal glop of disarray.

 

How can the truth be bound in such a temporal being? So much confusion and superfluousness.

 

Sadly, I do not enjoy the constant trivial ponderings of this world. It’s inhabitants. Scuttling back and forth each day filled with self importance, self motivation.

 

What of the greater good? When will they realize that there is no THEM without US. No one, no thing can exist in-of itself. Not alone or of its own.

 

The environment is a being that holds and sustains us. It is contained itself within a space. And that space within yet another. There is no true solitude. There is not aloneness. We are a unit. Working either for or against the whole.

 

Who are you? Who do you wish to be?

Vocabulary – A Writing Journey – The Beginning

February 4, 2009


The What: I have decided to start a new series as sort of a self-assignment. I will be pulling a word from each letter and writing at least a paragraph about that word. So the series will be at least 26 entries long (well, 27 when you count this one).

 

The Why: Well, I have three children and I tell them the best way to learn new words and concepts is to read and then incorporate those words into your everyday vocabulary. When you combine this, finding my book and the fact that I have be...

Glimpses - Entry 1

January 28, 2009

A flower
 that opens and closes
 with the weather.

Beautiful in bloom
and
 a mystery during my winters.

Fickle at best.

My Declaration

January 28, 2009

This book is my own.
In here there is no write/right or wrong.
My soul and my pen intrinsically connected.

Words spilling, emotions fleeing. Without judgment or condemnation.
The only consideration is truth. My feelings, my dreams and my beliefs.
Those are my truths.

Reality does not dictate my truth. Reality does not shape my truth. I see that which does not exist and yearn for it. I see that which does and often wonder “Why?” My ideals bind me not the hypocritical and contradictory terms ...

Intercessor

January 28, 2009

Thank you,

Thank you for helping me through today. It has been and stayed rough.
Relentless torment.

These demons seen and unseen torture and distract me.
Make me forget my purpose.
Even worse they cause me to willingly desert my post. AWOL.
Oh, the wickedness of the evil one.

But your friendship strengthens me. You remind me of my nobility.
You bring warmth to the dampness. You shine light in the darkness.

When my legs fail me, you help me up and carry me.
When my mind despairs and wants t...

In the beginning...

January 28, 2009
This is the first of hopefully many entries. I have not decided how to format this site or blog therefore I anticipate a lot of changes. I ask for your patience and support.

I am been gathering these works and assorted things for at least 2 decades and will need some time and prayer to get everything all sorted out. Entries will be added and then increased upon. This is my scrapbook not a finished product. All work unless otherwise attributed is mine.

Pray with and for me. God Bless.
