Why I blog...

I use this blog as a kind of therapy. Sometimes I'm happy and want to share it, sometimes it's just a random thought and sometimes it's to deal with things in my past. After all a burden shared is a burden halved

new beginnings

It is arbor week this week and planting new trees always reminds me of new beginnings, so I wrote a poem about divorce and starting over.

Trapped I feel trapped and I just want to break free
Because deep down inside, I know that this is not how my life is supposed to be
But how do I do it? This is a humongous task

Where do I go from here? Who do I ask?

The voices say don't look at the obstacles ahead
Focus only on one small step at a time instead

My mind is racing, I don’t know what to do
I don’t know what I am or who

How did I get so lost inside
Where did I go, where did me hide

Who is this person I have become
I really don't like her not even some

Time to change my life's direction
And start liking my own reflection

Looking back I must admit

My life as it is now is a much better fit
