Quote of the day
Surrounded
By energy, that is so great that only when I put on my headphone do I get some peace.
The voices of anger and frustration are gone
And all I hear is the smooth beats of music flowing through my ears, and all is good again.
But I can’t permanently block them out because I have no control over other people and what comes out of their mouths.

Quote of the day
I crawl
Into myself, as you pick everything around us apart.
I am waiting for you to come for me, and then I will stand my ground.
Nothing is ever good enough for you, and I try to keep things positive, but you won’t stand for it.
Your words are like acid burning up anything good until we’re all tired and annoyed to fight back.
So sometimes, we walk away and shake our heads, for you will never see the rainbow at the storm’s end because you will always be focused on the negativity.
While little blessings are happening around you every second of that day or in the days to come, you don’t realize that you are shutting out the light that represents who you are.

Quote of the day
How Did I allow
This darkness crept into my life and stayed for so long.
That the light is only casing shadows through my days as I struggle to see more of myself.
More of what I want and what I am working towards.
It’s like moving on from the past but being stuck by the unknown.
And the present moments are just out of reach.
And the battle to fight to get out of this space is so draining that the thought of fighting back is less and less each day.
But still, that little bit of hope and faith carry me on, and soon, I know the darkness will be too little even to make me look twice.

Quote of the day
WDYS # 137
When all You know it is gone, and you are sent away to a place you have never been before, and the only cousin you ever met says.
You will know the gate to Aunt Leah’s house when you see a gate with “The Way.”
And of course, you don’t believe him because it took ten gates later to find. And it’s getting dark, and you are a little creeped out, so you lie to Laura, your twin sister, that it’s an excellent gate. You both look on as if the gate will open if we keep staring at it.
Then out of nowhere, you hear a voice say welcome to Lady Leah’s house, and the gate opens, and your driver moves the car forward, and down the long straight road; you go.
And you don’t dare look back, for you know there is no going back, for what is to come will change these twins from who they thought they were meant to be to who they always were.

Quote of the day
I sit
in the park and I try to calm my mind, but all I think about are your last words to me and I think.
As I pull one petal from each rose, I say, does he love me, he loves me not and then I realize this game never works as you hope the outcome will go in your way, but it won’t matter.
Because it’s up to me and you to figure this out and we will, or we won’t, and then one day we will walk past each other like complete strangers.
And my days of sitting at my favorite bench in the park will have nothing to do with my thoughts of you but my thoughts of someone else.

Quote of the day
To feel
Defeated
Disappointed
Let down
When you don’t show up for yourself in, life can feel exhausting.
You find yourself giving up more than taking a rest and getting back at it.
It will take some time, but you will realize that you have what it takes because you were always enough.
So push away those lies and live your life for yourself one step at a time.

Quote of the day
The clues
They have always been there when you look around.
Maybe you didn’t want to see the truth.
Maybe you didn’t want to feel the pain
Or face the answers you need to know , but in life, we all know we have to face the truth or lies.
One day soon.
