Quit Wasting Time

Finish this sentence. "Life is short..."

 "...quit wasting time on things that don't fill your soul."

Waitin' On Someday

If you wrote a love song about your love life, what would the title be?  Write the first verse.  Waitin' On Someday When I was just a little girl, Sitting on his knee, My daddy told me of a prince who'd come, Who's smile would set me free. "Someday" he said, you'll be his, When the time is right, And I'll have to let go of my girl, Though my heart, it holds on tight. I grew up knowing the story well, And "Someday" came and went. Boys and men, loved and lost, All but had me spent. I've been Waitin' On Someday, Just tryin to find my way. Through all the grips of hell I know heartbreak all to well. I'm waitin' on Someday. I swore the day would never come where I'd find man like him, Kind and strong, Who's heart would long for a small town girl like me. And then he smiled, and strummed a song Singing "Someday she'll set me free". He was Waitin' On Someday, Just tryin to find

Remotely Controlled

Name something you wish you a remote control that currently does not.  To pause time, to hold onto moments just a little longer, freeze a smile just so you could look at it for as long as you wanted.  To replay joyous moments, to fast forward through the hard and ugly things that crush our souls.  To mute the words we don't want to hear, to adjust the volume according to our mood.  To switch channels with ease, and record our favorite things.  To turn it on when we want, and shut it off when we just can't take anymore...

I wonder though, how much we'd miss while we're busy looking back, or rewinding.  I wonder what would pass by while we are looking at what we might miss while it's on pause.  I wonder what we'd learn if we just could fast forward through everything that shapes who we are.  How much time would we spend trying to catch up to our own realities?  And how do we know when it's time to turn it off?  What if we

Indulge Me

It's my blog, and can if I want.  Two questions in a row - because they are related, and I said so. If you could indulge in anything without consequence, what would it be?  Food. All of it.  Any of it. Anytime.  Food without consquence of gaining of weight.  Yes. I don't feel the need to elaborate.  It's pretty clear.  I love food.  Someone once told me your weight is on a scale of 85% of what you eat.  Dammit.  I can't unhear it, but most days, I just don't care.  I don't want to get to my last days and wish I had eaten the cupcake.  I always eat the cupcake. You have to design a cocktail or drink after yourself.  What ingredients are in it and what will you name it?  I've already done this many years ago, and it made it to the menu at a local restaurant in my hometown.  It's pink, it's pretty, it's sweet and fruity and gentle to throw back.   Dirty Shirley, with a sugared rim.     It's a well made Shirley Temple (yes the beautiful
