Strength

Leave a reply

Give me the strength to realize that I can’t keep waiting for the journey to start – its too late. I lived it yesterday, am living it today and hope to continue to live it tomorrow.

Give me the strength to change things because they aren’t rewarding or enriching. Try something different and feel excited by the renewed possibilities

Give me the strength to leave myself open to communicating freely and listening without judging. To accept by doing so I am not perfect and nor is anyone else

Give me the strength to realize that I will hurt peoples feelings and they will hurt mine but trust that you don’t do it on purpose and nor do they.

 

Above all give me the strength to let go of the past, forgive those who hurt you, betrayed your trust as you did the same to others.

You have a good heart and need to see what others see.

Reach Out and Don’t Let Go

As you stretch out to sleep and reach do you miss the feel of your companion
The person you touch in the night and consume that feeling of safety
The temptress next to you who you desire to be close to and feel
The rock on which you can anchor and experience the world with eyes wide open

 

Reach Out and Don’t Let Go

Focus on the moment…

I miss that feeling in meeting someone special out for a moment
A shared time together to talk, laugh and enjoy each other’s presence

Too much today is gone in the blink of an eye – I’m guilty of distraction and short attention. Imagine committing to time and immersing yourself

Just relaxing with someone you feel connected with and block out the day to day
Turn off the phone, focus on that unique person with which you agree that moment

Take a drive to the wilderness and capture a quiet space and make it yours
Just sit and let the mind relax and wander

Special Day…

I remember a friendship embraced as a new life began for me
I remember how easy it was to settle knowing a friend existed
I remember the support and advice
I remember the hopefulness in her
I remember the hard times, the upset

I will never forget the love and kindness you have showed me

I remember the tasting fun of wonderful wines
I remember the mosquito filled July 4th
I remember shared movies and in future years Oscar voting

I remember the feeling of safety knowing you are there
I remember the natural desire to be there if u ever needed
I remember and never forget that I am lucky to call you friend

I remember meeting Terry and how nervous you were
I remember laughing so hard and the kitchen joyful tears
I remember and will never forget that evening
I remember knowing what would be…
I remember the huge sense of pride when asked to stand with you

And so we arrive at that station in life that heralds the next part of your journey

I know how lucky I have been to watch a true connection of souls grow and flourish
It makes me smile and brings me immense joy by knowing ,by witnessing and sharing today

Find someone to sit with you….

I was watching a UK show last night when the main character is bringing his dad home from hospital and his dad wants to sit and look out into the ocean. He tells his son he just wants to sit and then says to his son “You don’t look do you? You don’t look at the world. You just drive straight through it. Stop. And look.” His dad heads to sit down and his wife says she will sit with him. Next his dad turns and says “Find someone to sit with you. You’re not strong enough to do it on your own. Nobody is. Find someone to sit with you.”

Sometimes the true reflection of your intimacy and closeness with your partner is being able to know they will just sit with you. For those with someone to sit next too – enjoy and dont take for granted.

So easily forgotten

Leave a reply

I looked at my hand this morning as it had felt like a small cut on my upper palm. I had felt it yesterday as I met for time with my girls. As I examined my hand it looked like my lifeline had extended further across my hand – maybe it has.

As I enjoyed my girls laughing, reading at the library, taking me to explore the park, being cheeky (as every young kid should be :)) I realized that time with them feels like a lease of life that can so easily be forgotten. That shared innocence can feel like a relief from what pressures us each day and by sharing it my kids extend my life line……

Next to me…

I listened to two pieces of music at the weekend that centered me and brought a deep feeling to my core. I shared them with a friend and they were inside me

I started my yoga session with them in my head playing the whole time and as I entered my final resting position they were there creating a sense, a connection within and as I slowly opened my eyes and turned to my right the thought entered my head

Be next to me in the dark and let me open my eyes and see you and smile
