Going against the waves as

They are crashing against my body

My mind is so hungry for the normalness of time

I move forward, and yet

The waves continue to push me back

And then to and fro, to and fro

Sometimes against my will and other times I

Just let it flow

Flow around me

Forgetting that I do have control

But alas I falter and I slide back into the

Strength of the waves and the crashing into the shore

I become more resilient as I grow and learn and

 Become strong against the waves that take over my body and

My mind

I become strong flowing with the waves to take me

Where I need to be and yet

I become wise as to which wave is taking from me and which way is giving to me

Pouring into my mind is the truth and ability to get through life

Good or bad

Simple or complicated

Joy or sadness

Flowing, flowing and flowing not fighting the waves.

Summertime is here and I have been to a local flea market....I had a garage sales the Saturday before Memorial Day to get rid of the old and bring in the new.....or "new to me"..... I found burlap, a picture frame, window sheers, home decor, three accent pillows to go with the new bedspread in the master bedroom....and much, much more.....I even found a free-standing garden trellis for $15.00, original price was $112.00.....looks great in the garden....I have not decide what viney flower I will grow, yet....All in all I spent $30.00 including the trellis... I am still looking for more window treatments for the master bedroom, but there are more garage sales and flea markets out there waiting for me.....Happy Hunting everyone...

Use what talents you possess: the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best.

We all have talents. Some are veiled and some are in the open. I have several friends that helped me get through the first few days after Jonny's accident. Lynne helped with the logistics of getting the memorial organized, and driving me to see my son Brandon to tell him the tragic news. Crystal gathered the pictures and the stories of Jonny with me, his brother, his family, and his friends to decorate the display board. Peggy and Ruth were able to comfort me, with their empathetic abilities, having similar losses. My sister and Mom, comforting me and only wishing the plane from Florida brought them sooner. My friend Debbie, whose comforting words, caring and the ability to know what else I needed, such as bringing a wonderful stew, to nourish us and keep my strength up. The list goes on and on. The talents and kindness continues....all of these people were put into my life at different times and different areas. I know that God put them into my life for a reason...I am forever gra

I always knew how much they meant to me, though I had not realized this til six months ago, how much I meant to them. 3. I a
