New Year Dreams…

As many of you know I am always searching for the perfect conversation… it is the inspiration behind one of my dream books… I have been working on  4 different books… I dream of being published and have been working on becoming a published author (not very hard, but I am writing… I suppose that is the important part). It has always been a dream of mine… but alas, reality dictates I must work and earn a living for myself. How I would love to be at home and be able to write and read and learn my life away…

 

This year  I am trying to make one of my dreams a reality… I have journals and manuscripts and am self editing daily… keeping up with this world and my imaginary one is taxing, but I can not complain… I love to be here and in my mind… I prefer to be in my dreams, but we all know how real reality is… 

 

So back to my perfect conversations… I have had many… many have been written here on these journal pages… all of my friends from this medium have enriched my life beyond words… the insights shared here have outshone my work in many ways…and at many times. Thank you. 

 

This all came from my sisters recent visit… she was visiting from Florida. Her and I have perfect conversations at ease… we discuss life and purpose… happiness and meaning… we reach deep into sense and try to answer our minds… always when she leaves I feel disheartened. It is difficult to have a conversation with someone… let alone what I search for… the perfect conversation has to have that spark… that deep desire for knowledge… it should leave you with butterflies in your mind, like you have touched upon some wisdom, some deep knowledge… 

So I came up with an idea… it happened today at work… I was pondering a recent addition to my works and asked a friend for her thoughts… I began on my conversation hoping for some input , some spark… and it came… why not create the perfect conversation… make it a reality… create the setting, ambiance, and have a discussion… choose a topic and let it flow… it is research and it begins on Thursday!!! I invited some friends over and hope the magic will follow… I know it will… They have been informed that this is research… they have been informed that I need input … they have been willingly dragged into my scheme…  🙂

 

So now I drag you 🙂 I have made a list of topics to tackle… truth be told all I want is for them to think… to dive into their minds… let them give some input on their beliefs… on their thoughts… what makes them happy, sad… what would they ask if they had just one question… those kind of things. Should make for some fun… how often are we asked? So for anyone who is interested… what would you like to talk about… The Perfect Conversation Club

Discussions will follow…


I am excited… thank you for bearing with me over the past few weeks… it has been dark, but now I see the lights… it has come from all over… it has come from your hearts… I love all of you… Peace!

My Time

An angel came softly,
“Your time is coming”

Scared she knew,
“I am not ready!”

Angel questioned quietly,
“What were you waiting for?”

She thought loudly,
“I didn’t think it would be this soon.”

Interested Angel asked,
“What do you think Life is? What of destiny?”

Confused she pleaded,
“Please, I need more time”

In silence and serenity Angle spoke,
“Why shall I grant it to you? Deep inside you knew the rules. No one controls fate.”

She knew, she finally understood,
“What have I done?”

Angel sat serene, pondering her troubles,
“I mean you no sadness, only peace. Most do as you have done, they wait. For what, I know not.”
“Your time is close at hand. I grant you this one moment. For it is sad, you all hold so much”

Her relief passed through into worry and grief.
“One moment? I need more time, what is a moment?”

Bewildered Angel spoke,
“You have had this gift, and yet, still you ask more. You have had this Life, and still you need more. Always more, that is why you choose to remain? Yearn for more time? What more could you want?”

Unable to respond, she sat. Then sadly she answered.
“I just want more time. Just more time.”

Angel replied,
“Time? That my friend is subjective. Now take this moment and face this moment as if you are free. Live this moment for you. For this moment will pass. It will leave you, as will I. Only when I leave, I take with me your desire for time. I will show you your desire is nothing greater than a veil, a mirage. I will not fill the void, I will let it be. So focus on Life and leave times distraction behind.”

 

 

The Human Factor

Can we make a difference?
Surpass the past
Evolve?
Can we grow?

Have we the key?
Can we see the door?
Should we unlock it?
Who would it be for?

We have the key
We see the door
We have to unlock it
It has been done before

We can make a difference
Surpass the past
Evolve
And grow

We have the human factor
We are all connected
As a whole we can make a change
As a whole we can make a difference
We must live ourselves
We must look within
It is simple for us to wait for others
It is simple for us to blame the rest
It is simply blaming ourselves
We don’t see it
Or do we?

Where are you

 

Are you here?

I see you not

I waited for this time

A time I never forgot

I have always lived in the past

Learned to give in to moments that shall not last

 

I have learned

I have been told not to question

But I yearn

Be it truth or be it lesson

 

A truth unspoken

A knowledge misunderstood

A burning question

I need to be heard

 

Where are you?

Why am I in this time?

Why am I in this Life?

 

Where are you?

Why have you left me here?

away from my time of old

 

If I don’t see you

How can one be certain?

How can I put all of my faith in my beliefs?

How can one trust in fantasy?

In a reality not my own

 

So I ask this one question

A question known

I have the answer

Yet I ask this one question

In hope of a sign

Where are you?

Can I pick your brain?

Rainer from Esoteric Journey tagged me and was tagged before by Luiza

An interesting meme delving into the lives of other bloggers… so technically it is a YouYou and a way to “pick your brain”

 

 

The rules are: 

  • Choose whose brain you want to pick.
  • Ask a question about what you always wanted to know from that person, never mind whether it may be indiscreet – so be cautious 😉
  • Tag (with a TrackBack) the person
  • Oh, yes, and of course answer the question that you were asked, more or less detailed
  •  

    The answer to my question is no… I never wore braces when I was young. I did however wear really funny looking glasses. 🙂

     

     

    Now my questions…

     

    1. Ray… have you ever wondered what it would be like to live in a different century? Which would it be?

    2. Gypsy Heart… what led you to painting…( thank God for your gift)… if you could imagine doing anything else as good… what would it be?

    3. Zenuria… I know of your travels and adventures… if you could have an ideal set of circumstances where you could travel and see the world… where would you go first?

    4. Sorrow… what’s the first thing you would do if you became president?

    5. Glaize  … If you witness one natural phenomenon what would it be?

    6. Cordie… If you won the lottery what is the first thing you would do?

    7. Sanity… this is gonna have to be a good one… if you could spend one hour in someone elses shoes… who would it be and what would you do? 

    8. Spaz… Imagine living in the future… what would you look forward to?

    9. Surface Earth… With all the awareness you bring to us readers… all the empathy you show… all the beautiful words you share with us… what is the one message you would leave us with?

     

    Now to all those whom I tagged… I have come to know you well through your words and time has definitely weaved us together… through the last couple of weeks I have met new friends and read beautiful essays and works of art… I am blessed… I wish to ask all of you… What does the world look like from your view??

    My Angel

    My Angel
    Are you there when I sigh?

    Do you feel it when I cry?

    Do you feel it when I die?

    My Angel

    Are you lonely for me?
    Do I harken a cry too painful for thee

    Am I selfish

    For questioning and neglecting you

    Are you happy?

    Am I?

     

    My Angel

    Do I make you smile?

    Do I make you laugh?

    Do you feel my heart?

    Are you near my path?

    I wish to be…

    I wish to do…

    I wish you near

    For eternity…

     

    My Angel
    Can you feel it?

    The life which you guide.

    Can you hear it?

    My soul filled with pride.

     

    My Angel
    Is He great? 

    As great as you?
    Can you relate?

    Perhaps a fate for you…

     

    My Angel
    I wish to see 

    As the blind enlightened

    I wish to hear

    As the deaf awakened

    I wish to speak

    With the voice forever silent

    I wish to touch

    With the purity of the mind

     

    My Angel
    Call me home
    Together, never alone

    I pray to Him
    Do you hear me?
    My Angel

    I feel for Him
    Do you feel me?
    My Angel

    I cry for Him
    Are you there?
    My Angel

     

    I speak to him

    Perhaps you, my angel

    Wisdom of the Earth

    My dear friend Surface Earth has shared amazing wisdom with me…  I find I question everything these days… I was sent answers…brilliant and helpful answers… Thank you Surface Earth… 

     

    Sometimes I wonder what would we do, if we did it for ourselves? In other words, well, no, I mean what I said, what would we do? Most of us, I think, do for others. I am not sure it is altruistic as opposed to learned.

    Yes, we work our bones off for others and they turn and say: what have you done for me lately?

    I have no magic answers. I have learned only simple ones. Seriously:

    1. Breath, and do it deeply and slow because that is your time for you. Breath a mantra if you want, the word God works fine for me.
    2. Walk slowly. Yes, that’s it. Walk slowly darn it, I don’t care who is rushing you.
    3. Imagine a golden shield of many layers around you, make it look like the Matrix and DO NOT ENGAGE, do not let others suck your energy. And if they succeed in doing so, big deal, they won’t the next time or the time after that. There is no final defeat, remember that.

    Peace, energy and light to you.

     These words were in response to a moment I had… it was dark and she shined so brightly leading the way with hope and inspiration

     I thank all who listened to my questions and shown so brightly when my days were dark…
