Food for Thought

Always follow your heart. It was meant to be a guide. There is a basic instinct in all of us that can feel what is right. Your heart knows what your mind can’t decide. Your heart feels what the darkness can hide. You may not always be where you want to be, but if you follow your heart, you will always end up where you are supposed to be. No Regrets, Just Love.

 


The view from here…

Is breathtaking. If I could take this moment in time, savor it, and revisit it 5 years from now, 10 years from now, 20 years from now, I would. Every moment is worth a picture, and every mountain is worth the climb. Even the imperfections personify the perfection I see, from here. Passion, heart, hope, faith, love, freedom, vision, and the ability to move forward. Move, forward… The view from here is great, but I know the view from the next place I step will be even greater…

Nothing Beautiful

There is nothing beautiful to write

Not right now…

I’ve sat here

Pen to paper

For so long, wanting to write something positive

Something about love

Something breath-taking

Thought-provoking

Awe-inspiring

But there was nothing beautiful to write

All that came to mind

Was my breaking heart

The lies

The truth

My fear of reality

My desperation for imagination

And something beautiful

Something beautiful to write 

I could only concieve the flaws,

The fault,

And the fragmented

The choices

The changes

And the cracks in the paths that I have chosen

I could only fathom 

What was wrong

It never crossed my mind to think about

What was right, what is right.

To count my blessings

And let my life find its purpose

Because doing that is so much harder

Than wallowing in self-pity could ever be

“If you don’t like it, Change it.”

That phrase reverberates in my mind

Like the echo of my screams in the void of my heart

There was nothing beautiful to write

But then…

I wrote this

And decided

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder…
