#ThoughtfulThursday: New Year’s Eve

As long as I am breathing, in my eyes, I am just beginning.

The clock will strike midnight and a new calendar will unfold.

Optimism will be high

Pessimism will still hang around

We will reflect over the last calendar

The good, the bad and the in between

Then at the stroke of midnight we’ll pull up anchor

Ready to sail into a new year

That horizon looks so beautiful

The light inside is still alive

My breathing is intact

So my dreams are well and alive too

Happy New Year and remember, there are enough stars in the sky for us all.

#RomanticTuesday: Christmas Dreams, Christmas Love

I imagine how lovely you will look on Christmas Day

With the most wonderful smile to match your heart’s ways

I imagine your light illuminating brighter than ever

Your surroundings shining because of the joy and love you share

I imagine your inner being all aglow

Basking in the peace and contentment you will know

My heart rejoices

When you are with peace

When you are filled with joy

When your love flows freely

I imagine standing next to you

Our gifts sitting under the tree, waiting to be opened

Our arms around each other as we stare at the Christmas star

Aware that the most beautiful gift we have been blessed with is Love

It seals us as one and continuously fills our hearts

Landscape Of A Dream

Dream state

Dreamscape

Early Saturday

Wide awake

Break from

The rat race

My day

My pace

Mental paintbrush

Painting a dreamscape

Shaping the landscape

To a reality

All real

No fake

The dream is

very much alive

and it is moments

like these

that remind me

of why I am striving

forward

towards it

#RomanticTuesday: Anywhere

“Anywhere with you is home.”

Home is in the heart

Time and time again

Your heart has defined this

Wherever your heart may be

I see the light shining

The light that reminds me where my home is

Wherever you are

I want to experience this new world with you

Wherever love leads us

It will all be beautiful

Absorbing the sights and sounds

Breaking new ground

Gratitude for every treasure found

Aisle or window seat

I want to experience this beautiful and round world of love

With you

#ThoughtfulThusday: Wings

If you were born without wings, do nothing to prevent them from growing.

If Only

I’ve heard the heart never stops dreaming

Even when the mind is still

The setting sun looms large on a cool spring evening

A cup of coffee warms the quietness that surrounds the soul

#MondayThoughts: One Up

“Even if no one believes in you, as long as you believe in you, you will always be one up.”

The dream, the goal, the vision is set in your heart and mind. It something that you want, that you desire to achieve. You and you alone know the depth of the sincerity in your heart about reaching your goal. Sometimes your efforts cannot be physically seen and it may cause others to see you as lackadaisical, lethargic or not really wanting it as much as you say…to them I say “fuck you,” you don’t know my heart.

When you believe in something so much that at times your soul hurts because you can envision it as clear as day, you know it’s bound to come life. You will hear from the naysayers, the doubt spreaders, those that think you’re in over your head. Don’t let them get you down or pull your dreams out from under you.

If you know your heart, you know what you want and if you believe, then you know that you will get there.

Stay inspired and keep rising.
