Remotely Controlled

Image
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... Life.   Wouldn't it be grand? 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...

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.

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 ...

Involved In Our Device

Name one thing you wish your current cell phone did for you that it currently does not.  The cell phone - leader of our lives.  We are naked without it.  It holds our contacts, our tools, our calendars, our media, our pictures, our memories,  It holds our connections.  We text, we comment, we like.  We snap pictures, we schedule our appointments, we pay our bills.  We multi task, we play games, we record, we watch, we scroll. We have become involved in our device. We have become involved in our device.  What a statement.  Go ahead, toss that one around for a minute.  We become involved - we depend on, we need, we crave, we desire, we are fulfilled by... Our device. Our fix, our enabler, our mechanisms, our words, our tools, our vices.   We are dependent on this vice. I remember a time when I was young, and the summer was here.  The sun was shining and grass was beneath my running feat.  I was outside, my hands were f...
