Quote of the day
Month: December 2018
Christmas Eve
And the day started off feeling like there was no time left to play around.
The day started with a lot of work to be done and ended with lots of laughter.
What is happening is just something you have to jump into and let it go through it’s cycle.
And when it’s done just let it go and just go back to your every day cycle of life.
Maybe something will change along the way but right now this is just how it’s meant to be.

Two
Days left
then what will I do.
Will I find something else to keep my mind off the things that still haunt me through the joy I have in my life.
Only time will tell I guess.

The Joy

in me sometimes is hard to see.
But, when it comes out my laughter and smile is contagious and it’s just hard to not join along.
The joy that feels me up like a child on Christmas morning so excited to open up their gifts as if those gifts will be played with more than once before the next Christmas comes again.
The emotions of how good they have been and so Santa is just around the corner to unload the presents they so much deserve.
The moment of money and time it takes for a parent to buy the gift and at the time they are working hard to hope this memory of this Christmas will be something you store in your favorite memories for life.
Nothing to hold back the joy as the laughter and smile come out for the holiday and not letting anyone rain on your Joyful season.

I can’t

see you anymore as the snow starts to come down faster as the minutes pass.
It’s hard to keep following you as the whiteness of your coat fades and blends into the surroundings.
I try to look down and follow your footsteps in hope that I am not moving to slow and soon your path may be covered up again.
I try to stay calm as the coldness and wetness of the snow is soaking into my coat and warmth I once felt in my gloves and boots no longer exist.
I hope that I can get back to the cabin before I freeze to death, I know that you are angry with me but I hope I make it through this storm to see your smile again.

Quote of the day
Three
things left to buy
then things will be done.
And the stress would be over for a little while.
I don’t know if three more days are enough for me to forget the things that stress me out.
The number three sometimes doesn’t have the best of luck and so when things go bad and something else happens you just know the third problem is coming next.
Even though you know the days of relaxing and the days of focusing on things that need to be left in the past.
It’s time to say yes I can and actually do something about it.
The three seconds it takes for you to realize, you need to just slow down and everything will work it’s self out one day at a time.

Sometimes

it’s the past that brings a smile on your face once again letting you know that even though adulthood isn’t what you thought it was.
It’s not time to give up but, the time to look back and think about what you thought would be your dream today if you had just took the risk and did what you loved to begin with.
Don’t let the present hold you back at what your future could possibly be if you just take the time to do what you love.

Riding

my bicycle through the streets with all ages of children and adults as we show off our Christmas spirits.
We are brave and we are happy to give up and commit to something that is more about someone else and for the first time not about us.
We are united as one as we ride and ride until the end of the ride comes and everyone gets a drinks and snacks until we are ready to go home and take a rest for we worked so hard today.

Quote of the day
Four
hours of peace before everything falls apart and my day of relaxing is turned upside down.
Four little words I want to say to the one who choose to prolong her time off and to shorten my time of enjoy the time given to me.
There is so many things I can not control but, doing what I made a commitment to is one I honor and try my hardest to come through.
Some choose to play around and then when they really need the help it is not found for the help gave up waiting for them to com around.

Quote of the day
So much
for thinking the things I did wrong in this world wouldn’t catch up with me.
I didn’t think the time would come where I would have to look back and wish I had been smarter with my life choices.
I didn’t have to walk down that path and turn the little bit of light I had inside of me off for good.
I could have worked hard and struggled a little to get by in this world.
But, no I had to make the wrong moves and end up looking down at the mess I made and having no way out of it.
It was time to face my outcome and knowing my future was no longer in my hands and the things to come would be so not pleasant.
Or easy for me but, I just have to accept the things I did and hope that there is a way for me to overcome this in the end.

Quote of the day
Six
Men all focus on the same task ahead.
As the call to move forward came through the silence was heard all around.
As time seemed to move in slow motion
as what would happen next was not something that would surprise them.
When it all came down to it they would look out for each other as the battle they fought together was make the world safer.
They couldn’t think twice about the pain that would come and hurt those around. They just knew the pain of the loss would heal and the world would become less harmful .
For the six men felt they were making a difference and so they stood strong and united as a team.
But to them they stood strong together as a family that would always have each other’s back.
