I can’t give up on writing.

It’s what keeps me alive.

No wonder I’ve been feeling out of sorts.

I haven’t written in a long time!

I got stuck.

I fell into a pit and got stuck.

I kept climbing back up but kept falling back in.

I think I’ve finally made it out of the dungeon.

Once more with feeling I am going to write.

I feel a little bit rusty but I can’t give up.

Not this time around.

I’m not getting any younger.

Not that it’s about age.

But who knows, one day my forgetfulness with reign.

And then I’ll totally forget about writing.

I’m back.

Once more with feeling.

It’s not so bad after all.

Coming home to an empty home.

Music indeed is therapeutic.

Makes good company.

I can’t help but think about the recent suicides.

Such famous people.

Who am I to think less of myself.

I cannot imagine the internal suffering that results in suicide.

I thought I’d sleep longer being alone for a few days.

M1 asked, “why are you awake you don’t have to make my breakfast.”

Yes, at 26, I still make her breakfast and pack her lunch.

I make sure to pack in a whole lot of love since they’re gone most of the day.

It’s my way of remaining connected to my young adult girls.

I’ll eventually be left on my own someday.

In the company of my music and house chores.

Oh, I mustn’t forget my knitting needles!

Something is off balance.

Despite the routine in place, there’s a gap somewhere in between.

Can’t quite put my finger on it.

I just know and I can sense that something is not where it should be.

I keep looking around, sniffing and observing.

I haven’t asked around because I don’t quite know what to ask.

People tell me they’ve been feeling off tangent lately.

Call it whatever you wish.

Simply put, I’m lost.

Don’t be afraid.  Take that leap of faith.

Only when you let go will you realize what you’re truly capable of accomplishing.

Find strength in uncertainty.  Persevere.

Truth and realizations emerge amidst not knowing what the outcome will be.

Pick your battles. Not everything is worth fighting for.

Eventually, things get straightened out.  Whether you meet again, does not matter.

Be willing to learn something new.

Growth never stops.  Embrace with openness what life has to offer.

Don’t just count your earnings.

Count your blessings!  They are worth more than money can buy.
