Week 250 of Three Line Tales

Swan I just want to travel off into the fog with no worry or concern insight.

As I travel through this life the way I want to starting now and I won’t look back for no more putting others before myself.

For I don’t want to fall into the trap of disappointment again and just let the water take me where I’m suppose to go.

memories of when I used to play with toys and no that I have grown up

toys are not something I think about anymore as I spend my time doing more things then playing with toys and letting my imagination take over.

Toys will they come back into my life maybe when I have to buy them for someone else. For toys always come back some how and some way.

path has been an good one as everything seems to be falling into place for me.

But I feel like the other shoe is about to fall and things are not going to be great for me as the stress begins to build up and push back as it wants out.

Will I end up making it to the finish line with this path or will I let the things that scare me the most rule my life and end up with another unfinished path.

fox you sneaked into my life and at first I was a little worried for you barely said a word just watched me with your curious eyes.

As we got closer I realize the hesitant you had made when we first met was because you had seen something in me and it scared you.

For you knew there was more to come from this friendship that would last longer than you thought was possible, I will always be grateful for you sneaking into my life and stealing a piece of my heart.

The past I see staring back at me so much has changed since. That day that those who came before us would be so shocked seeing how things have indeed changed. So many have become so much worst than it was before. Can we ever get to a place that feels like we are on even ground and, will things feel right and peaceful for everyone?

dreaming of this moment since we first started this journey

and now it’s time to shine and not stress about getting it right just going with the flow and hoping it all works out and they love the story we are telling.

So here we go were in this together and will continue to be together as long as we work hard and trust each other for it’s a hard competition out here in the ballerina world.

there in the field so still and patient for the first time in such a long time.

I know lately we have both been moving around a lot and our time together has faded out sometimes.

But in this moment as I snap picture after picture of you in the field that day I can only smile and enjoy this moment together and I just hope your smiling under that helmet too.

Do You

remember when we were young, we would hide in the Dryer as if it wasn’t something dangerous because we wouldn’t think to turn it on?
We would climb right in and hide, we can only fit some way in, and while our legs hang out and surely will give us away.
Now we are taking pictures and putting it up on our Instagram for likes and giggles, hoping to be noticed for something we think is cool and is well stepping it up since childhood fun.

in peace and in sunlight all at the same time has felt so refreshing as things have not always been so great.

The lavender fields are my favorite place to go when the days are nice and I just want to lay around and relax with the hope of things becoming peaceful.

The field goes on and on and it gives me hope that some days may be long but they will end too and the blessing will come again.

Should I

risk it and follow my dreams
Or should I play it safe and not going anywhere to fast.
Did I make the right choice and walked through the door that is and will get me farther in my life.
Or did I choose a path that is going to leave me wanting more and yet still not able to grab it?

Three Line Tales, Week 232

back at the past when playing in the tub with bubbles and rubber ducks were well fun.

The rush of being somewhere was not insight and the fun of just playing until well the water got cold.

Just the little moments to look forward too, when a bath was more about fun than a time of relaxation. Oh how I wish I could go back to those days and truly cherish them.

Time

Three Line Tales, Week 224

something we think we have a lot of until we don’t

But, even though we know there is a end to our exist we sometimes don’t appreciate the time we have now or later because we feel we have all the time in the world to get things done.

To find ourselves and do the things that matter the most and only than do we wake up with the reality that we can’t do everything for time when we were strong enough and had the energy is gone.

Couldn’t sleep

Week 219 of Three Line Tales

So I went for a much needed drive to clear my mind and in hope that would help me go back to sleep.

For it’s been a while since I’ve had a good night sleep and not been interrupted with the need to pee.

Or just waking up for no reason and then it takes hours to really fall back into a quite light sleep that doesn’t help me at all and so I’m up and the day is a drag with no hope insight.

Week 218 of Three Line Tale

moment I want to focus on what is in front of me and I realize that staring at the screen on my computer isn’t going to make things move quicker.

I know that the day is coming to an end and even though I have done so much it feels like I have so much more to do before I can be done for the day.

I know that this day was long and right now I am tired and ready to move on from the stress of not know what to expect next.
