Adulting

Another quiet morning listening to the clock on the wall ticking away comfortably. I’ve poured my coffee and put my butt into the depression on the couch that everyone fights over, which makes me smile. It’s just a depression, but it’s the place I fed all my babies in the quiet nights while the clock…

Little miracles

Climbing like a monkey, Glee in his eyes. He reaches for the item he wants, Fearless in his desire to attain his goal. I watch as he learns new things, as he grows and changes Full of bittersweet emotion. Joy that my little one is so happy, so curious and fun, and sorrow because this…

Easter egg hunt

They lined up against the fence, Gazes fixed, glares intense Battle fever glowed in their stance, Even though a few tripped on their pants Ready, set, GO!!! A wild cry erupted Screams all around, kids interrupted Cranky and tearful without the prize Tears flowed like a river from her eyes Yes, this is how I…

The Measure of A Human

Today is Good Friday. What does that mean to you? I’m not really sure what it means to me now that I’m an adult. I grew up Christian and went to church almost every week until I left home at eighteen. Then my visits to church became more sporadic, and recently only for the christenings…

Fate

Tick tock, tick tock How many minutes does a heart hold? Each cell born with a predestined number, the end at the beginning already decided Do we influence fate? Or bow to its will? How much of what I do matters? Would the path be the same without my involvement? I like to think I…

Becoming me

Once again it’s five am. A bunch of songs run through my head about early mornings but I can’t catch most of them. Thankfully today isn’t starting out as an ear worm day. Instead, I’m soaking in the feeling of coziness with my coffee and my TENS machine on my bad foot. It’s my bad…

Hollywood Philosopher

I’ve been watching a lot of X-Files lately. Its been helping me get through my morning treadmill sessions, which in turn help me get through my days. Its funny how I don’t want to wake up, but if I do and force myself to start my run, after about 10 minutes it gets relatively…

Unravel

The world continues to spin wildly, slightly tilted and off centre. Is that the reason why things make so little sense sometimes? I open up my world, read the news, things that happen around the world and wonder I wonder why people are so cruel, wonder how they can justify this behaviour to others. Didn’t…

The disappearance of weekend

It’s a sad thing really, how fast two free days get filled up and disappear in a puff of smoke, like someone in a souped up hot rod laying rubber through an intersection. Don’t get me wrong- I had a great weekend, it just never seems quite long enough. I get all these great plans,…
