today

Today I have the entire day off from work
yea!

I slept late and wish that I had been off yesterday to sleep

the phone wakes me

R needs to come over and use the shower
I watched a show on immigration workers in Florida while I waited for her

then after getting coffee I watched a show about mercy ships while she showered and tab drifted to sleep on the sofa

some strange thing happened while I watched
I was not repulsed (by the lives portrayed there in the workers- because i have been so jaded by all things yw)
I was interested
I was even moved a little by the difference that the few were making in this big and crazy world

I sat outside to finish my coffee and listened to the wind gentle in the branches
watched the leaves move from side to side
soaked in the blue veil that covers us
heard the birds sing softly
smiled at the calm way that the neighbors argued about hamburgers on the grill
and felt Father’s hand come and do a little moving around inside this heart

I want to be, in this world, what I am meant to be

more on this later
time to go get our hair cut

colours

Brown
My favorite colour now aside from a variety of shades of greens that I wear on my days off
I’ve been feeling very natural as of late

Black
A colour that has made me feel tough and hard and not so needy as I really am inside

Red
The colour of my eyes as of late

White
The colour of a dress I may be wearing, quite possibly, on the first weekend in November
Nothing is set in stone, I suppose this can be a sort of “heads up” for those who would need to travel

Feel like a drive into the deserts that plague me?
The dry places that made me?
Just when the leaves have begun to turn and the air is not too cool to sit in and sip tea and watch mountains beneath the deep blue skies that remind me that all is not lost and I am so small and He is quite Big and Strong and Capable of handling even my most calloused moments, pity parties and emotional let downs…
This has become a strange posting hmmm?
I am really ok…very ok :)

I am very happy to be talking “w” plans with Luke, the love of my life, my friend and confidant.

Hope to see you (quite possibly) in November hee hee

Special thanks to William K., for the great talk this morning…your a good man.

I thought about starting

I thought about starting a new page called ” articles of candor”
a place where I would spill all those strange and direct thoughts that flood my mind as I hungrily make the drive up or down the mountain.

all I really have are a few choice quote’s though, not enough words for entire articles.
so, they will fill the notebooks that I slip into my purse or in between the seats in my car or…
