Time Walker I measure you in moments, an interval of time, recording those instances that let me experience you. I adjust you to my liking, setting the tempo to repeat only that which brings me pleasure. I've come a long way, battling the unseen, relying on the softness of a heart that needed mending... with needle and thread quilting the past, present and soon to be future, into a patchwork of healing. You are but a juncture in time, while I gauge the memories trying to balance these feelings, holding onto love, as the night moves me into the day beneath another full moon. And I soften the hard that penetrated and endured, blow by blow producing a sounder me, a stronger me free from control, loyal to no one but myself. I walk with time in silent echo, fear being my justification, acceptance being my condition and patience, my silhouette. My thirst for, no longer a need. My hunger for, no longer craved. "Contentment", the special of the day, as I learn to surrender and walk in no ones shoes but my own... M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

One of life's greatest lessons is when to offer vulnerablity And when not to. I don't know as I've figured it out yet. This is a nicely phrased work of an eternal truth. KJ Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |

 (sigh) Yes, and you embrace the world with a heart of gold, sweet friend, keep knitting those threads and push that needle thread and no gale can push you back! (kiss on cheek) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Maureen, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

"I've come a long way, battling the unseen, relying on the softness of a heart that needed mending... with needle and thread quilting the past, present and soon to be future, into a patchwork of healing." Ah....I absolutely love this one. I think it's my favorite of yours to date. We've all done our share of mending  |

This is only one example of why I read everything you post. Outstanding, emotional imagery that rings so true to the ebb and flow of the heart. |

I thank you all...I would love to individually but I am worn out adult sitting a friend who last week had brain surgery and then helping a neighbor by watching her small children so she could get their presents without them. I am so disorganized at the moment and barely have time to read let alone reply. But I do stop to read when I am giving myself a rest  Thank you for reading me... Have a Merry Christmas and take time to care for yourselves. hugss M |
