Monday

Today has been one of those days where everything needs done, but I have zero energy to do it.

I'm going to sit back and enjoy the rest of my Monday.

Balancing Act

-
I'm a writer.  I need time to write.  It's what  I love to do and what I need to do.  Writing gives me a balanced life and shows me who I truly am.  But writing doesn't always get to happen when there are a hundred other things that I am supposed to be doing.  I'm sure you know what I am talking about.  There are dishes to be done, a job to tend to, a room to clean, tea to make, and a boyfriend, friends and family to spend time with.  Where do you work one more thing into that schedule? Being a writer I want my days to consist of nothing more than a red lip print on a decaf cup of coffee or tea, reading aloud from the book in my hand, and scribbling notes that inspire me to write on later.  Does that sound perfect to anyone else?  In real life this usually only happens maybe once a month for ten minutes. I read a blog post recently written by  Cayt O'Neal  that got me thinking about a few things.  The post was tit...

Unexpected

Today was spent with family to celebrate a birthday.  The weather was perfect, not too cool, not too hot.  Just right.  There was good food, good conversation, and love shared.  Days like today make me feel on top of the world since I don't see my family on a regular basis.  As the leaves fell outside I started to contemplate the heavens, as I so often do.  But, as of lately my contemplations have been against anything ethereal and more for the opposite, which hasn't happened since I started believing in a greater presence, a God, if you will.  I have sadly stopped reading my Bible, stopped listening when people begin to talk about a religion, and stopped praying that something would change, to make me more open to the idea.  But today, whether it was the company of my family, the weather outside, or the mood of my soul, got me thinking about the world as if someone was controlling it.  That feeling was short, but beautiful, and has op...

Let's Unplug

-
It's been nine days since I decided to take a small hiatus from Facebook, and it's been the most relaxing nine days I've had since I had become a Facebook member. My reasoning behind unplugging from the cyber world wasn't technical, it was spiritual. Last Sunday, I spent in my Bible, which is rare, I hate to admit. That day was filled with reading, organizing, writing, and listening(or trying to). And for that day, I can honestly say my mind wasn't consumed with daydreaming about whether my Facebook posts got likes, or if a friend emailed me back, or if someone accepted my friend request. Which is a great if not refreshing feeling to have. I made a vow that Sunday to take 21 days away from Facebook. Of course, I have still been streaming through Twitter feeds and Instagram, and keeping plugged into my favorite blogs, but just emptying my life of one thing that had consumed my thought process daily has been quite the experience. When I started this 21 days of being F...
