You've managed to be a truth teller and a soft place for me to fall.
You love me all the time.
My messy heart is safe with you.
You are a gift I don't take for granted.
Ever.

The Road Ahead
It's been awhile since I've last blogged.
I've come here several times.
So much to write about.
Too much to say.
So I didn't.
Why?
Because sometimes life is more than words. Sometimes an emotion, or an event is just too big to be penned.
Things happen, life changes. Sometimes abruptly, sometimes with a slow maddening pace.
But it happens.
The Road Ahead for me has many bends and breaks.
Sometimes I've traveled down it several times, sometimes it dead ends, but it's my journey and I'm learning to just go with every twist and turn life has to offer.

Contemplating
It's funny.
When I googled the word "contemplate" then looked at the images google produced, they are all of various types of people gazing out over vast stretches of beautiful scenery.
All of them wearing this look of deep concentration across their brows while managing to keep this serene "I'm at complete peace with my life" etching displayed along the fine lines of their lips.
My first thought. What a complete crock!
It's funny the images the world will use to portray a simple word.
Contemplation for me..in my reality is a whole lot uglier. You won't get any breathtaking sceneries. Most likely being a chubby girl curled up on her side staring across her messy bed at all of the imperfections her bedroom contains. Yeah I know (glass half empy blah blah blah).
It's just that I think we (as in the world) have a very sordid viewpoint of what life is or what it should be.
We walk around with rose-colored glasses on. Making life oh-so-rosy and ripe. When in reality sometimes it's colored black and white. Sometimes it's watery like a spilled drink on a watercolor painting.Sometimes it's just various hues and shades that make no sense at all.
What is the point you say of this meaningless rant?
I. Don't. Know.
I'm contemplating that.
