Alone...

My creativity lives in a place called Alone. It is a quiet place....a secret place that you can not find on a map. Alone is situated someplace between my heart and my mind, but sometimes seems more one place than the other. It is a serene place, light sometimes and dark others. Gentle most of the time, but roaring occasionally, taking me by surprise. I LOVE Alone.....both the serenity and the passion it brings. It is where i retreat to when i need to recharge....like my own ocean and sunshine combined....where i feel at peace usually, but sometimes excited, wild and free.
Everyone has an Alone.....possibly quite different than mine and for different reasons....but it is a wonderful place, don’t you agree?? Have a most wonderful Tuesday, friends!


The flowers in the second post here were such a welcome early spring sight to me after a very long winter....not cold, really, but just depressing and dreary.  The only good thing was it gave me a long time to think about things happening in my life and led me to a decision that i felt i had to make.  It was thought of long and hard....and i felt that i had given it my best shot, but sometimes things are just not meant to continue as they are and changes need to be made.  it was within the past few months that i decided that i am no longer anyones doormat....and i have finally allowed my pain of a life half lived to be changed to a life being lived without fear or hurt.....i have learned i have a voice and feelings and am deserving of respect.  Not everyone is going to like me...and that is ok....as long as i look in the mirror and I LIKE the me looking back.  No one can know all of me....except God...and when the time comes, i think he will be glad he knew me! Just remember:  Doing what is easy is not always right....doing what is right is not always easy.
