Wonder

I wonder at what point in time does the heart, mind, body, and soul fully align...
Is it when we are conceived and born?
Is it when we take our final breath and give up the ghost?
Is it when we stand in judgement in front of the Creator?
Is it when we are are welcomed into the Kingdom?
Or is it experienced everyday we are alive and we possibly miss it?
I wonder...

Create

Even though I am unable to artistically create everyday, I get to experience creating beautiful moments with those I love and cherish, with those I am a steward of. I think there is awesome simplicity in this!

Shake, Rattle, and Roll

Stabbing

Spasms

Swelling

Day Two

So today is my second day as a blogger.

Funny how today I don't have much to say.

Yet I feel the weight of stillness and silence take hold of me,

And I just want to submerge myself deep into its solitude.

Taking the Plunge

In 2010, I created this blog. With one post, and time gone by, I was inspired to try again. I still do not know what will come of this but with tiny steps and a desire to see dreams fulfilled, I will visit daily. I am a rookie, a newbie, a neophyte. I am a quasi artist (card making, scrapbooking, drawing, and painting...would love to try sculpting). I love music, the sound and feel of it all. I am a self taught pianist and clarinet player...both still amateur. I am a poet and philosopher. I love to read about religion, language, and history as it relates to the emotional and spiritual development of humanity.

I have no idea what kind of attention I will attract, if any. I do know that I have ventured into this unknown territory by reading about women who also share my life's passion and pain. Artful Blogging by Somerset Studio, has triggered something deep within me that has remained resolute and reserved for far too long. I desire to be free with what I share with the world, even if it is only a small piece (of self and the world).

So with this introduction into a revolutionary revitalization of seeking me, I pray that I find peace, poise, and patience with my own internal struggles. I hope for a window of opportunity, which will allow me to discover more of myself and forgiveness of self along the way. I wish for wonder to fill my mind as I emerge from the cathartic state of "reality" that has seized my thoughts and gripped my emotions. Reality in the sense of what others say is normal and how I should fit into it...not the reality of truly living as the soul is intended to do.

This is my message...

This is a little piece of me~
