A New Year

Source: WeHeartIt

I can no longer maintain my

Silence

This year things are different

There have been extreme changes

What (and who) was once important

no longer matter

Letting go is freedom and something

I enjoy more and more every day

I never forgot

And …

You never remembered —

Me, but everyone else

Now…

You no longer matter

You are someone I hardly remember

Someone who certainly was not

worth all the time I wasted giving

support …

loyalty …

and …

caring …

So …

This is a New Year …

And I will no longer remember you …

Morning Gift…

Sunlight on a dirt road

Led me into the forest

A place of peace and

tranquility drawing

me ever deeper into

the trees.

 

A forest primeval

Untouched by humanity

A sacred place…

A private place…

A place to restore

and rejuvenate

 

How had I missed this

special area having walked

this road many times?

Did it appear when I needed

it most …

or …

Was I that oblivious

to my surroundings?

 

Finding a clearing

shimmering in early

morning light, I

settled down and

listened…

felt…

observed…

absorbed…

the gifts of the day…

New Beginnings

Source: Unknown

Starting over

Never looking back

The past is the past

and nothing more

People…

Places…

Things…

All forgotten

All unnecessary

 

The only thing

that matters now

is New Beginnings

and looking forward

to what life has

to offer …

Turning…

Source: We Heart It

Lately…

My emotions are 

flaring at the edges

curling like Autumn

leaves at the turn

 

A slow burn…

Simmering…

Smoking slightly…

Silently…

With a hint of 

warm Sandalwood

surrounding me

 

Release is my plan

Surrender…

Peace…

Calm…

That leads to

Transformation…

of my heart…

of my mind…

of my soul…

 

That leads to

a new day…

a new life…

a new me…

Moving Forward

Source: We Heart It

Riding on a 

river of tears

I am taken to 

new places…

new worlds…

new experiences…

 

Washing away the

past and the pain

Freedom….

Moving forward

Never looking back

Life goes on…

Change…

Source: Unknown

Just as the seasons

change so do our hearts

They can close down

to everything…

to everyone…

hardened like steel

refusing to break

 

But…

 

Just when it seems

all hope is gone

 

And…

 

The heart will

never find peace again…

never feel love again…

never give love again…

 

The sun breaks through

leading the way to

 

A…

      New Beginning

New Day…

Source: We Heart It

Early…

Just after dawn

A soft summer morning

 

Crickets quietly chirping

their good morning

Birds singing their

response…

 

Others…

Practicing their early

morning aerial ballet

 

The sun painting

the sky with

blush and lipstick

 

A new day

Begins…

Looking forward

My eyes on

the Future

 

Leaving the

Past Behind

 

Clean mind…

Open Heart…

 

Settled Soul

A New

Beginning…

A New Day…

Spring Cleaning

Source: Google Images

Time to make some

life changes

Things are way too

strange for me

right now and 

a new direction

is needed … soon

 

Old feelings keep

creeping in…

Something is not

quite right

But…

I don’t know what

 

Things MUST change

I must re-evaluate

my life and do

some much needed

Spring Cleaning
