it seems that with nothing ever changing in my life I have few words to write, so thus this is it for today.
2005
ONE. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.
TWO. Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their
conversational skills will be as important as any other.
THREE. Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep
all you want.
FOUR. When you say, "I love you," mean it.
FIVE. When you say, "I'm sorry," look the person in
the eye.
SIX. Be engaged at least six months before you get married.
SEVEN. Believe in love at first sight.
EIGHT. Never laugh at anyone's dream. People who don't have
dreams don't have much.
NINE. Love ! deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but
it's the only way to live life completely.
TEN.. In disagreements, fight fairly. No name calling.
ELEVEN. Don't judge people by their relatives.
TWELVE. Talk slowly but think quickly.
THIRTEEN. When someone asks you a question you don't want to
answer, smile and ask, "Why do you want to know?"
FOURTEEN. Remember that great love and great achievements involve
great risk.
FIFTEEN. Say "bless you" when you hear someone
sneeze.
SIXTEEN. When you lose, don't lose the lesson
SEVENTEEN. Remember the three R's: Respect for self; Respect for
others; and responsibility for all your actions.
EIGHTEEN. Don't let a little dispute injure a great
friendship.
NINETEEN. When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate
steps to correct it.
TWENTY. Smile when picking up the phone. The caller will hear it in
your voice.
TWENTY-ONE. Spend some time alone.

I have a headache today, I wonder if they will ever leave me
2003
it is beginning to feel more like home at least the one room I am allowing myself to make mine..it is strange it is all mine but yet I'm not willing to expand beyond the same small space I occupied in the little house. I wonder if I will ever move outward and utilize all that I have
2002
the maze went on forever, in circles we walked, and weaving to and fro the exit finally appeared. and then on the drive home, the debate on rather chocolate cows really exist and if not how and where does chocolate milk come from. the innocents and the belief in things that only children can, brings back the reality that sometimes we look at life to seriously.
2001
We cannot become what we need to be by remaining what we are.
- Max Depree -
2000
upon the sky of black I gaze, I see, I sing, I cry
upon the hidden stars a twinkle, a glitter a wink
upon my heart lays the future, the past and the burden
upon my soul comes the cry for more and fear of the unknown
1999
As the mountains reach for the clouds kiss, and the sky's tears. I find I too reach for you, the unknown and the unforeseen. As the rain falls upon the beaten earth, cleansing, washing away the soil, giving life and rebirth. I find I too have began a cleansing, a rebirth of thy inner self.
As each breath taken, sustains this life. I find each moment holds the same life preserving substance, each moment spent drives the desire to continue on to the tomorrow and the unforeseen promises it holds.
1998
I want to tell you a secret
a burning desire tells me no
I want to share with you
a part know one else knows
But fear holds my words
for I know once spoke
it would change things
and I may lose
If I whispered in the dark
how much you really mean
would it scare you
would you run from me
I wished I could reveal this secret of my heart
and I wished I would know your reaction
how you really feel
deep inside
Do you think you could Love me
with all of your being
as I do you?
Giving me that feeling of endlessness?
Would you treat me tenderly
sparing nothing for life in theory
but in the mind where souls connect?
1997
Because things are the way they are, things will not stay the way
they are.
- Bertolt Brecht -
