Projecting Reality

I project that one year from now I will be sitting in a chair, in my office, looking out the window and just staring off into the majestic view that surrounds me. If I squint I swear I can see the beads of water as they drip from the orangish-yellow leaves as they float glowingly in the mornings slight breeze. A mix of seasons I would guess if pressed. I can tell you that the way that the sun reflects off of the water is mirror like. As I sit there, I know that if I were to open a window, close my eyes, and use my ears to paint a picture based off of the sounds as subtle as they may be from near or afar, I could paint a picture of a world at peace. 

I project that multiple goals that I have for this year will have been achieved or nearly achieved. I project that there will be trying days and nights that will lead to triumphant nights and days. No road easy, no path ahead clear. Prepared to recognize and operate accordingly in the realm of opportunity, relying at times if I must on nothing more than instinct and ingenuity. Within my vision my focus a banner permanently affixed. 

I project that in the coming days, weeks, and months I will arrive at destinations both mapped and unmapped. I project that along the way I will find guidance. I will find that though the directions charted may at times lead me astray, there will be no cause for panic as by doing nothing more than stilling myself and relying on the hidden compass that lays deep within my heart, wherever my presence shall be is destined for as upon arrival my soul as welcome without reservation.  

Thinking of nothing now, just frozen in the moment as I read this back to myself aloud. I project a slight sense of nervousness and slight twinge of panic. I suppose that's what it's like when against all angst and trepidation the action of letting go of all reservation pays actual dividend. The stickiness of my palms now, the goosebumps that have overtaken my skin and raised up even the tiniest of hairs on my arms, not a quick thick quip from my lips but merely the passing along of ones pursuit of a glimpse.  

A finished work. A crafting complete. Another chapter in the book.

I admit. I never forgot my dream.
I admit. I never gave up.

National Police Week – Who Cares?

I just found out that it’s: National Police Week, and now I’m hoping that one of you .’ s out there joins me and  doesn’t do anything to mess it up. Don’t be the one who kills a cop this week, don’t be the one that does it by accident or intentionally , and seriously to the following OFFENDERS : - middle aged guy , DO NOT go out and get drunk this week and  then crash into a cop on your way to another bar, and a – FELON ,Can you wait until NEXT WEEK to  “pull your strap”  and “ BAD COP ”, that cop who treats what he does as “just another job” and not as a commitment to protect & serve the community. As a matter of fact I’m “CALLING ALL COPS” ,Can ALL COPS EVERYWHERE just take a break on respond to any & all calls for a week & let a real POLICE Officer take the next one ...I mean can the Police just get the chance to stop holding his breath this week? Just for this one week, I’m sure it can’t be that hard..I mean if you have to do something, keep ...

End of the Line

Where are you? Where have you gone? Why have you left me here all alone? Will you ever come back? Those are just a few of the questions that I ask myself each day that I open my eyes. WHY CAN’T I THINK ANYMORE? WHY CAN’T I UNDERSTAND ANYTHING? WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME? WHEN WILL IT ALL CLICK AND MAKE SENSE AGAIN? WHEN WILL MY STRUGGLING END? WHY CAN’T I JUST BE NORMAL LIKE EVERYONE ELSE? WHY AM I SO AFRAID? WHY AMI SO ASHAMED? WHY DOES IT FEEL LIKE I AM CONSTANTLY ALONE? WHY DOESN’T ANYONE CARE? WHEN WILL SOMEONE LISTEN? WILL ANYONE EVER UNDERSTAND? My head is so full of questions, that the answers themselves are invisible… I can no longer continue to live my life the way that it is, and so I choose today, this moment, this time to put an end to way that it is. I’m tired of having to explain what I mean in order for other people to understand, I’m tired of trying to be what people expect while at same time failing to meet overall expectations. Tired o...
