We do not have a lot of nice things like special furniture or expensive whatevers.
Pretty much, we have been aiming for functionality and decluttering.
Of course, when we get our own place, a fun part is finding some items for it.
I already picked up an antique wooden chair and two thin, subtly-patterned, Eastern-silken woven rugs.
It’s pretty neat what you can find in second-hand stores.
For little expense, you can improve atmosphere.
The risk may be worth extending where time has proven consistency.
Stating what I want and how I want it puts me in a position where people can see me more clearly.
Proper alliances make the difference.
My goals are to have a harmonious and balanced love and family life with room to expand my creativity, supported by my talents in healing.
It is what we do with the information we are given that determines how we succeed or fail.
Like in the original movie, Sabrina, starring the olden greats by black and white, she would perch at height, looking down upon the elegant masses.
And like Sabrina, she wanted to mingle with them and make new acquaintances.
But, unlike the young woman, at the end of the day, she preferred to return to the trees.
I’m not sure that I will ever get on a stage and sing “Rock Star” or “I Am” to a crowd of thousands, but thinking of wearing those star-shaped meteorite earrings and knowing my interpretation of their symbolism makes me happy.
If I had my guy, I would want to be home, snuggled by the fire with him – instead of preparing to venture out into the world.
Fortitude bleeds away ineptitude
For endurance’s lasting impression –
Yet in process, encases life’s essence.
Worrying politics would destroy the world while its life springs just began to flow.
I always thought that I had to “become.”
Could it be enough to just step up to play?
He needed status.
She needed structure.
We recognized there were some differences, but that we could selectively collaborate together in the future. A better solution than clashing wills!
A form of expansion for my therapeutic services will be including flexibility in scheduling to be able to do clinics.
I do not seek it unless it is accompanied by wisdom, appreciation, authenticity, and trust.
I learned much from him.
I learned how to accept being on the outside – how to find my own path.
But, once I had established my base out there, I felt the best course was to try to find my way back.
Yet, reentering the mainstream is best done in short stints, with much tact.
Spreading comfort’s salvation.
Something in them fits me:
Cherished company I keep.
They say that its “everything” – but there’s some that it’s not.
Party of one.
I love this building. It is my beacon.
It means nothing without the grist.
It turns out that my noise waa the smaller.
Rubber chicken lips and squeaky sound of distress.
You know, that laid out chicken toy dogs love to fling about?
Young adults cussing constantly in their speech patterns is an assertion of their independence from conformist society.
The same cussing by people living on the edge may have begun this way – but then became a continuum of their survivalist culture.
I have a high tolerance and flex level – until it comes to willful ineptness by others, or severe inflammation pain in my system.
The first will tangle around my legs, tripping my functionality; the second seizes my muscles, trying to stop me from moving and achieving.
At some point, either becomes that which I must move around or push against drastically.
And then, I dig in my heels and start asserting.
In the case of the new venue where I had been working, I had been asked and then I had gently but assuredly stated what I needed.
This was not headed and, instead, unnecessary complications were placed in my way, causing my effectiveness to teeter on degrading.
So, I will just leave, peacefully with many thanks for the opportunity – but my mind is set.
As far as the pain, extreme inflammation from some allergen has burned away the thin veneer of flex that I had remaining.
I am no longer tolerating accepting less from my circumstances than what I need, deserve, and require for solace.
I do not require where I work to be elaborate – but I need it to be functional.
Sometimes my will is grieving,
Needing to express its feeling
While struggling to overcome
Where trapped and unheaded.
“Driven Over-Achiever.”
If unmatched in flight’s strength, grounded by drakes.
Thus, such a relationship is “Dead On Arrival.”
I managed to get the donations of my services out in time for a local community raffle and auction, but could not expend more energy to show up in person. Self care is necessary. It is hard for me to identify when I have already overextended.
