When Is It Fair...


When is it fair

For us to bear the burdens

Cry the tears

And weather the storms

When is it fair

For the weight on our shoulders to grow stronger

While the strength of our backs grow weaker

When is it fair

That we heal pain

But fall upon salt with our opened wounds

When is it fair

For the late nights to be our contemplative unrest

And the day dedicated to pushing through

We are the weaker sex…

Yet no earthly man seems strong enough to carry our loads

So we’ll just keep bearing the burdens

Crying the tears and

Weathering the storms

Until…

We Do Know...

So many times when someone dies (particularly expectantly) you here someone say, "You never know" or "You just never know"... but the truth is we do! We do know that tomorrow is not promised, that life can change in a blink of an eye. We know that the last time you see someone may be the last time. We know life is short. We know people can leave us at any moment. We do know...we just forget...

Hi Honey...

I’m so glad you’re home! So glad to see your face! Can’t wait for your hugs I've been waiting to greet you all day To salute you with my kiss! Hmmm… Everything seems all right with the world now. 2015 ®

For Once...

For once, I would like to look temptation in her eyes and say "I've defeated you".   For once, just once, at the end of the day, I would like to exhale and know I stayed strong . For once, I would like to stand on the edge of the cliff, look over, and not leap. For once, I would like to embrace my inner win . For once, I don't want to end my day with regret. For once, I want to reach the finish line. For once, I want to see to the end of the test. For once, I want to succeed. For once, I want to think it, see it, then accomplish it. For once, I want to say 'I use to'. For once, I want to 'remember when'. For once, I'd like to reflect back on who I was...and see the difference in who I am   For once, I don't want to wish or hope or wonder , For once, I just want to be .
