life

Okay, so I decided to just write a little something about life.
It boggles me.
It is crazy, fun, perplexed, and sound.
It is what it is.
But here's the thing:  I consider myself a highly perceptive person.
So I always give everyone I meet the benefit of the doubt.
Being older and wiser, however, limits me.
I can only take so much ignorance and disrespect.
I always tell my children to be kind to others and to respect all they believe in.
We each have our own idealism of life, and I truly respect that of others.
But I will always step back if I need to.
It's o.k. because I understand how life works.
I am mainly writing this today to say, if you don't get me then don't patronize me.
Just accept me for whom I am.
And do not ever - get in the way of my happiness.
This is something, no matter who you are, everyone is entitled to.
It is life, a gift.
You make it your own.
How you make it - is your choice.

listening

I decided to listen intently to every word they say
I do already, but I am always multitasking
something I really do not care to do,
but as a mother of two
it unfortunately happened beyond my control
it is not a bad thing
I am just a big fan of focusing on one thing at a time
as I always tell my children
as I started to say in the beginning...
listen intently to every word
this is how you can keep a good friend
and two of the best friends I will ever have
are the two that will be a part of my life as long as I live
so I never want to miss a word they are saying

crazy

it is through my dreams I feel alive
hoping that one day
I can accomplish something
I have always wanted
to conquer
to own the facts of my passion
a complex, living and natural gift
how does one's world escape
the necessity of this storytelling nourishment
all that is found
all that is complete
what is wine?
something that I am crazy about
