Consistency Of Expectation

I wanted to take the dogs with me today, but then this would open chaos when I need to stay focused and make it on time to appointments.

Plus, I would need to seek parking in the shade and having “the children” with me is like managing a parade while keeping them fed and watered.

I must remind myself that they are fine, though, with the stay-at-home routines, and not bringing them lightens my load for everything.

I am still realizing how grueling it had been for me that for the last year and a half I had to always control their behaviors to keep housing.

Familiarization

It is like training one’s psychology to accept something new and learning to flex so one can overcome past associative hurdles, as well as be able to expand into new frontiers.

But, how does one receive reassurance that new trust is reliable before and while time’s experience proves it is viable?

There needs to be inclusive communication.

Tragedy

I tried, Lord.

You saw me reach.

I ripped open the veil and awoke.

But, he kept going…

And others interfered with the deer.

Then, they blamed him for being the one who slew.

He was Good – had done no wrong.

And all I could do was “see” when it was happening.

I was prevented from saving him.

I could only preserve and nourish the remnants.

Sad Reprieve

When I went back to retrieve my dragon from its hibernation on the mountainside, I checked inside the trailer home as my father requested to ensure it was ready for the new tenant.

To my sadness, I found one baby mouse, dead and dessicating, curled up alone in the emptied living room.

We had managed to save our family, but I had not been there to ensure its freedom from the bathroom sink pipeway’s ensured indoor captivity.

Relegated

The coin of positivity allows the situation of “relegated” to be flipped to the perception of “I get to,” thereby giving any thwarted desire or venture a new slant for accessing what is still given as “opportunity.”

However, the other side of the optimism coin is pessimism, and if it gets more and more difficult to have the kind of influence one needs to overturn that coin back to positive in their life, a third side of the coin appears, called bitterness.

This further complicates.

Just Let A Girl Be!

No amount of therapy has dissipated the dark energy plaguing me. It has only dusted off the skeletons in the closet still laughing grimly.

I think I will name them Joe and Ned – there are more, of course, but less is better said.

Perhaps I will invite them to tea and ask them what they must say to me because they keep just hanging around with no ground to stand upon.

Meanwhile, I am stuck in partial sleep walking.

Simple Truths

I cannot compete with the world.

There is so much untapped talent brimming, surging against wave gates once strong and oppressive – but now bending.

How is anyone to hear me in the storm now pressing, soon coming?

I will stay small in my might, encapsulated as a pearl, ever shining – yet hiding within it a star which, when the time is right, will burst alight – having been carried to its rightful destination by the high tide.
