Just Fine

"music is the healing source of the world" -a song on the radio, (can't remember? sorry.)
A sampling of Verses I relate to from Alanis Morissette's very real lyrics: "Hand in my Pocket"

I'm broke but I'm happy,

I'm poor but I'm kind.

I'm sane but I'm overwhelmed.

I'm lost but I'm hopeful.

I've got one hand in my pocket and the other one is giving a high five.

I'm young and I'm underpaid.

I'm tired but I'm working.

I'm high but I'm grounded.

I care but I'm restless.

I'm here but I'm really gone.
I'm wrong and I'm sorry.
I'm sad but I'm laughing.
I'm sick but I'm pretty.
I'm free but I'm focused.

What it all comes down to is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet.

And What it all boils down to is that no one's really got it figured out yet.

And what it all comes down to, my friends, is that every thing's gonna be fine, fine, fine.

My words: "Music is the voice of God, the voice of wisdom, age-less, time-less, speechless it is."

"Nothing is ours. All belongs to God and we are temporary tenants to the master, if you will. So, having like-minded attitude that all we possess is for the purpose of sharing then we're on a ready course to give and not hoard away selfishly."

I'm still trying to figure out how I want to write on this blog. I may try out some new things soon. Feedback is welcome, thanks!

Daily Life

"Every day takes figuring out again how to fucking live." -one character's quote from the HBO series, Deadwood.
I am feeling this today. I think sometimes one just needs to get dirty to appreciate cleanliness. Here's a Poem to describe this thought.

messy to clean the house, wash dishes, take out the trash
smelly to flower fragrance air freshners
be a slob to be made up and put together
eat junk to eat healthy and delicious
laziness to be diligent and productive
self-gratification to self-discipline's gift later
skip, play hooky to be present and early
be naked to being dressed
take a break to push forward

Perhaps this is my attempt at reconciling my ups and downs? Actually that is exactly what it is.

For One Great Peace

words by Shirley Erena Murray, from the hymn For One Great Peace


this thread I weave this step I dance
this stone I carve
this ball I bounce
this nail I drive
this pot I shape
this fire I light
this fence I leap
this bane I knit
this seed I nurse
this rift I mend
this child I raise
this earth I tend
this truth I sign
this is a small part in one small place
of one hearts beat for one great Peace.

Four Peaks Hiking Adventure!

This is the highest peak of the four peaks with the only "name" Browns Peak-- all are in the 7,000 ft high peak range.

I ALMOST made it to the summit. This was sometime back, a few months ago...
