Purpose of the Day

Dawn breaks and holds the moment sacred. New beginnings of the ordinary fall before me and I inhale my surroundings knowing, and at the same time not knowing….
The pattern of what will be starts to unfold, moods shifting to accommodate whatever takes place peppered by thoughts from last night, yesterday, and whatever takes prevalence of mind….
My soul shouts “yes” to the Glory of the morning before the minor frustrations start their integration into the bigger picture of circumstances. My promise is to refrain from labeling “good day” or “bad day”, the day just IS. Thankfulness takes hold of my heart for new beginnings and I rise to seek the purpose…..

Daffodils

It’s raining… wet, cold rain on my garden. But that won’t stop my Daffodils from blooming, no way! Sunny yellow peeks up from the soggy ground and I know in time there will be longer days full of fresh air. I can feel the warm sunshine and cool breezes already. The raindrops will be remembered and their work appreciated in the long hot months ahead.

RIDE THE BIGGEST WAVE

It’s only one life. When it's over, it’s over my friend…
So whatcha gonna do??
Watch it all pass by?
Wonder where it went??

Time passes, friendships dwindle, parents get old….
Whatcha gonna do??

There’s another wave! Catch it! Here comes another… and another….
And as you ride along {{{you realize}}} there are so many waves that you can’t possibly ride them all -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.

* THE VOID*

Most days, life goes along with a certain amount of predictability. You take the occasional interruptions in stride. Obstacles present themselves but you face whatever occurs, working situations to fit your routine.

Then, along comes the biggie… the event that rocks your whole world and changes how you look at everything. Each moment seems different; your outlook is now colored with a completely different view. Experiencing profound loss is usually at the root of this life altering state. You just aren’t sure of anything anymore…..

You find yourself in that empty place, frozen in the moment, no way out. The course you were on just dissolved before your eyes, the ship you were sailing was blown to smithereens. No time to adjust--- you are forced to just hang out in what I call *the Void*.

This *Void* is not infinite, though you are powerless to control when it shall pass. It is meant to be filled as it sits empty, so empty. At some point *the Void* gives way to another place…

A fork in the road now lies before you. This intersection is a direct result of finally getting through to the other side of *the Void*. You must now make a choice on which road you will take. This decision will affect everything in your future. You may find that you want to go back, retracing steps toward the past, the familiar. This idea is no longer an option. You can never go there again. It would never be the same.

Looking for tomorrow is the next step as you leave this darkened state. It is finally time to fill the emptiness with something different than what was before. Depending on which path you choose you’ll find sunshine and birds singing and smiles inside of you. And you forge ahead, changed forever…
