My photo
if i could use one word to describe my life SERENDIPITY seems to fit the space... i stumbled upon my husband during a time i shouldn't have and my story goes on from there... constantly falling or stumbling upon remarkable gifts and people who bring fortune to our lives... when we fall we learn and strive toward the next step.

a chapter's end...



597 posts later...i am walking away...
saying fare thee well to this place
three years ago i found my way to blogger...a time in my life when i need a place to simply write. to escape my reality...the life i created..i needed distance from some in my life and was seeking a more deep and powerful meaning within my life and my relationships.
so i came here and i wrote...i wrote and wrote and fell in love with this space...i fell in love with the friendships created...
i fell in love with my life all over.
back in january of 2012 i bought my own .com. as the days of 2012 came to play time was not on my side for achieving my own personal wants. it was a tremendous year. one in which i feel has come full circle in the strangest scariest saddest yet successful of ways...a year in which i grew on levels i never thought could be possible.
i came here a few months after my father in law passed away from prostate cancer. i cared for him during his final months. i watched life slip through the sands of time. in august...three years and three days after the passing of my father in law i faced accepting that my father has been diagnosed with prostate cancer...i have seen it...watched it...felt the pain as much as a loved one possibly could...a road i hoped i would never have to walk with another again.
this circle has been haunting my spirit...yet re~awakening my mind...
yesterday i sat in front of this screen and said to myself...today is the day...i am going to end 2012 as it should have begun!
the.chapter.is.complete.
alas for me
oh i still have so so very much to say...to share...to show
i thank each one of you from the very depths of my soul for being here...each of you are daily reminders that have not gone away...your whispers are heard and have helped guide me quietly in my day to day...your friendships cherished beyond any words i could write...
this is not the end...a beginning
that should have started quite some time ago
is where you shall find me
gone from here...
but still out there in this big crazy world in which we live

"success is not final, failure is not fatal:
it is the courage to continue that counts"

the wind will forever blow~



day after day
be it calm and gentle
carassing you lightly
lifting you carefully
moving fluid
encompassing you
without ever realizing
the wind is walking with you


 
yet days of harshness
bitter and cold
biting you with each movement made
pushing you
even if you are unwilling to take the next step
the wind coerces you as you stand in stillness

the wind will forever blow
 
the winds of change of been moving in and out
in rhythms i think at one moment
 
...sigh...

this is good

then
without any further notice than a quick blink of my eye
it is a
 
...sigh...

of

what is happening
what are you whispering
what am i suppose to be hearing
what lesson is trying to be taught
what path are you wanting me to walk
what is the meaning of such change

once more such time has passed
and life has pulled me in
every possible direction
i think could be
