Bright Contrast

Vibrant sky, wind blew by 

brings back memories of years gone by

seasons change flowers bloom

all while they're away

protection is their goal 

following orders is they're way

Many people disagree about politics but on one thing we all can agree: thanks for those who sacrifice their lives for our safety. 

For those in the area: If you haven't gone to downtown Wake Forest recently you should.  There is art after hours, wine tastings, great little shops and one of my wacky favorites a tea room equipped with a bin of hats, gloves and pearls for you to get decked out for the occasion.

I love our house.  It's is great.  It is our first home.  But often I look at it as all the things that need to be done and don't appreciate the beauty of how we have made it our own.  

Overcast and windy

I just got a upgraded camera and despite the unfortunate weather I ventured out... 

It was ironically beautiful... it reminded me of the scenes from Wuthering Heights...

Lost in thoughts

Do you ever find yourself just devoid of emotions having crawled back up into your head sitting amongst all the other you's that want to voice their thoughts... 

Finally Spring has sprung

North Carolina is beautiful for so many reasons.  There is only one reason that makes me hate it every year... the weather.  Specifically it is the high then low then low then baking then ... just crazy drive you to be sick.  I saw today that despite the weather spring is actually here... the flowering trees are budding and it is a beautiful thing.

Wind blown and at peace

Child's Play

Do you ever feel unable?

I make lists in my head of all the things I want to do... all the places I want to live... want to see.  I get overwhelmed at my own ambition and inability all at the same time.

I want to be an artist... but not in one way but in so many ways.  I want to paint, draw, sing, act, dance write... and of course take pictures.  I want to play instruments.

I want to travel... everywhere
I want to live... anywhere and everywhere

I want to blog my thoughts and I want them to be deep (though coming from me... it's not going to happen).
I want to cook from scratch everyday.  I want to be healthy...eat healthy.  I want to have a six pack and no muffin top.

I want to help people.  I want to make a difference.  I want to be playful and serious.

Is it so much to ask to do and be everything?    Is it so much to ask that I can be all... alas yes.

But I have yet to figure out what to give up... Then again I am not really trying.  I am now just trying to be passable at a few anyway...
