Worn me Down

For a while things seemed cloudy,
everything grey.
Feelings of unending disarray.
People seemed so disappointing and disappointed.
It was hard to look away from the evil and the spiteful.
But the longer you stare into the past the longer you are living it.

Sometimes you live it for what seems to be forever
Slowly... mornings become inspiring,
the steam off tea is pleasing,
a bubble bath is the best thing,
a warm breezy night under the street lights
on the patio with a martini is perfect,
and with all that the world has to offer there is nothing
more that you could ask for.

Because the world keeps spinning,
Different doors keep opening,
with new faces walking in them,
and you can still do the things you love.

On my birthday I made a to do list for this year,
for about four months I continued on my regular routine, but still
dreaming of these goals.
until I read this quote

"First I was dying to finish high school and start college.
And then I was dying to finish college and start working.
And then I was dying to marry and have children.
And then I was dying for my children to grow old enough so I could get back to my career.
And then I was dying to retire.
And now I am dying...
and suddenly realize that I forgot to live" - Author Unknown

Life is what you make it, and the experiences you live turn into memories,
and it's these memories that live on.



----> (Experience # 1) My motorcycle license... Something I have always found myself day dreaming about, I passed my test and I am now legally allowed to ride motorcycles (watch out drivers! ) and am on the search for my very own! I have met some awesome people along the way of that fun journey and expect to meet plenty more!
