Endless

Your choices are many

Your decisions should be sound

Your abilities in place

Your determination in the lead

Stay focused on the present

Do not flash back to long ago

The present is what you have

The next step is yours

When you are alive and well

Your choices are endless

Put thought and consideration of others

Into the mix of your journey

May all of the endless possibilities

bring you growth in your persona.

Zombie Dream all gone

I am back in power

My helpless thoughts all gone

My stress level is one I can handle

My dreams are back to the living world

The zombies will have to lurk in the distance

Waiting for future destiny to surface

Down to the wire…..

No, I am not stressed out. I am calm. I just have a lot of little errands to run before my friend gets married on June 8th. I am really excited for her. She is also getting little things done each day. All of this running around has made me realize a few things. Life is what you make it. You can make your daily chores seem terrible, or you can dance when you are doing them! I am sure the people around you do not care. You might even get them to smile! I have a tendency to dance in public. I seem to do a lot better when I hear the music instead of the ugliness that is going on around me. Call it denial if you want. I call it mental health management. Do you have a way to make yourself get calm about your daily chores? I would be real interested in hearing about them. Until the wedding, I will be blogging off and on. I hope you are all well and happy. I hope you are enjoying your free time and getting to do some of those things you have always wanted to do, but do not seem to have the time to do them. (I wanted to see how long I could make that last sentence! LOL)

Listen to your body….it speaks

I am always amazed at what I find when I am listening to what my body is trying to tell me.

Sometimes I really do not want to hear it, but I end up regretting that decision!

I am sure there have been times where you KNOW you should not pick up that HEAVY box, but you do it anyways.  The pride factor kicks in.

That evening you are just sitting around in disgust because you did not listen to your body speak!

Does any of this make sense to you?

I can list hundreds of times I should have listened!

Now, what I do is meditate and do some yoga.

It really helps me stay focused on ME and what I am feeling and thinking.

When I do this, my body is happier.

I walk different.

I move different.

I kind of DANCE around!

Try it out.

Hope it works.

Get Happy Happy………

Get happy happy
Things in this life are not worth the stress
Get happy happy
Answers to your problem will appear
Get happy happy
You want to maintain that dignity and self respect
You work hard in life to survive
Do not get discouraged
Believe
Take it slow
Get help if you need it
That is what it is there for
Family, friends, clergy,professionals…
They all wait for your call
Get happy happy
You are not alone
Keep your faith
If you do not have one,
what are you waiting for
Seek and you shall find.

Take time to smell the roses…..

Have a week of love
Have a week of thankfulness
Have a week of superior health and fitness

Keep your brain straight
Keep your eyes focused
Keep your faith number one
Keep on living with a smile.. no matter what

Oh, how did those roses work for you?

The other half of my life…a poem*

Just thinking about the years when I begin to grow older and wiser,

I am a bit happy and a bit sad.

Will I be one that does not remember my family?

Will I be one who has trouble with every day tasks?

Or, perhaos I will be one

who runs miles till the end

with a smile of happiness and joy

For the world is a place that does offer those options

We have only to seek them and succeed

with our thoughts.

So, I decided I will continue to conquer

on with this life and

take what is thrown my way.

What other choice do I really have?

Zombie Land…a poem

The events of the day tired her to the point of feeling like she was in zombie land

A land that offered peace and a land that required no thinking on her part

That was a good thing

She just wanted to be

She just wanted to stare

She just wanted to breathe the air around her and smile

She was alive

She was content

She was ME! lol

Family and Friends and Me…poem

As she sat and looked at the people

surrounding her world this eventful day

She realized that her life would be nothing

without her friends and family present

They could get annoying

They could get loud and crazy

They could say and do things that would make you scream

But silence in their presence would be devastating to ones heart

A tunnel of nightmares would begin

So, just be who you are

Say what you like

Be happy to be alive!

I do not get along with SNOW!

I have just spent a few hours outside in the cold. What was I doing? Well, how does shovelling snow sound to you all? I have a lot of respect for all of you out there who do this all the time because of where you live. I just have to deal with it whenever we decide to hit the snow1 I have to admit it is great exercise, but it is hard on the back. I will be heading home soon. Right now….gotta go. The snow is calling me.
