So much

going on that not even a second can be wasted before the big  day comes along.

Your ready to go and you hope things will go well this time.

And for the first time in a long time you just want to not stress out and do what needs be done on your time.

This chance won’t come along again and now is the time to react and get it all done before it truly is too late.

You stand alone but you know you are never truly alone and as so much more is thrown onto your lap, you must realize that things will get better once it all settles down again.

Have I

 Let so much time past me by that

Even I don’t know what my dream truly is anymore.

Or have I let others control what I should be doing overcome what I need to be doing for the lord.

And not for my own greed or attention.

Am I saying what should be said or am I dealing with more than I should at this point.

Life seems to becoming more of a story I wish I could jump out and not join again in hope to find a story that I truly fit into.

Am I

 To pause because of you

Or am I to move forward because of me.

So much is going to change and I’m looking forward to new beginnings.

I know that as the year ends the lord has guided me away from things I thought I needed and towards things that will teach me something new.

It’s time for me to not settle for the path that feels safe because I know what I am doing and everyone appreciates what I have done so far.

It’s time for my light to shine somewhere else because it’s ready to shine for more than me.

Only a few

more days until the peace

and quiet and hope come back into my life.

It is the season of giving and relaxing and taking the time

to finally think about  what you want to change in your life next year.

Your ready to do so much and be so much more than you knew you could be and receive more than you think you are worth.

Week 203 of Three Line Tales

another week of getting attacked by the people you thought would understand this difficult situation but no they are quickly taking bites at you as they come and go. 

Leaving you more frustrated as it is and you have had just about enough of this crap at this point that you are just a second away of going off.

You just smile for your next opponent and hope that you come out on top from this battle your about to face because you know it is all about to go down and you are not going down with this ship.

At the

top looking down

and for the first time

I don’t want to go back.

I don’t want to deal with the problems I didn’t cause and the mess that isn’t being  solved now or ever.

The attitude that thinks it is always right

but it’s way out of line most of the time.

The coldness that only begins to come in as the doors reopened

and the realization that nothing is the same and no one has the patients to stand by and just support.

The stress is too much and better days will come they say but at this point it all feels like lies to me.

I know

I have decisions to make but the time its taking to make them is not an easy one.

I feel tired and just not in the mood.

I feel under the weather but somehow still making it through with barely an complaint.

I want to see an clearer picture  because I know at the end of the day it will all go down and the picture we are painting may not look the way we wanted it too.

Time can and will only tell what is going on if we make a change the facts are even in the changes the flow of things are off and when you try to control them you end up with the same results.

Almost everyone has given up but yet still coming around to collect and yet says they are doing so much more but they are not.

It’s like watching an old episode of one of your favorite shows and yelling for the character to not make that mistake but you already know they will and at this point why are you fighting what is and will happen.

You know the situation and you wish they would just get in down but only if you stick to what you know and embrace the change with hope things will work out.

And to ask questions along the way because, if you leave it up to others to run the show it will always run into the ground.

This is

our little holiday on wheels we do this almost every Saturday night with a cup of tea or hot chocolate and we look up into the sky.

With no worry insight for this our time to get away from the stress and just be in the lights and sitting on top of the throw that will keep us warm later on into the night.

But, sometimes I do this alone for my light needs time to restore and come out only to be seen by myself.

For being around others sometimes could be overwhelming  and so in the trunk I sit imaging what things could be like if I had done things differently.

I know that we will always come back to this spot but for now let’s just live one day at a time.

To feel

the sun on my face after such a cold morning.

I just want to forget about today and hope for a better tomorrow

for I know things will be tough and the week will be long and at the end I will want to not come back again.

Things are going so well for me and right now I just hope and wish it will all work out in the end for I am tired of losing sleep over something that is not going to define me at the  end of my day or week.

Something   that has already changed me but not in the way I wanted it too.

At this point only the truth will set me free and today just doesn’t seem like the day where everything will be clear for me .
