My Sunday

If I could capture my emotions in a word right now, it would be "uggghhh!" What a roller coaster of highs and lows this weekend. Well, if nothing else, I know I am human...

So, as always, I will "throw up" on paper as I try to find peace when and where I can right now.

My Santuary

I exist.

My soul yearns to be gently kissed.

In my silence; in my pondering; while the chaos spins outside of my being, I am reminded my sanctuary is not found in someone else.

A holistic view of my physical and emotional health,

I dream of my mind, heart, and soul being protected; yet that is a fairy tale.

To have not taken the risk, would have been to fail.

While there is an open invitation to my altar, I stand alone; while the chaos spins outside of my being.

From the distance, there are new things I am seeing.

I exist. I exist alone.

Intended to be respectful, genuine, transparent, unconditional, and open in my tone.

In my silence, I find refuge in music and poetry; while the chaos spins outside of my being.

My sanctuary offers no words for the hearing; only actions for the seeing.

Not my darkest hour... I still find bliss.

I exist.
