Lost Paradise

On a serious note my mom fell and broke her back yesterday. It is pretty bad. 25% of her spine is crushed. The doctor said its like taking a jelly donut and smashing it on the side of the pavement. They are going to put her on complete and utter bed rest for 3 months straight. Any of you who really know my mother knows this will make her go nuts from lack of being able to talk to her friends, post and stuff like that. I have complete and utter faith in her that she will recover from this. She is taking all of it in stride. Any and all thoughts and prayers are greatly appreciated.

This is one of them things you don’t even see coming. I just wish that I could take her place so she doesn’t have to suffer like this. I don’t even know what else to say. Thanks for taking the time to read this and please keep her in your prayers.

God Bless You All.

My six word memoir: I am not dead only sleeping SHHHH…

This is a poem my friend Christine wrote. It’s a rough draft and she says it needs edited but I wanted to share it with everyone.

Inside one world I am logic reborn.
I do only that which is reasonable,
logical.
My heart’s desire knows no place
It is dead like a corpse,
rotting ‘neath the ground.
I play by the rules,
do as I’m told,
never live only for me.

I am lost in a maze that is
this world of logic,
where dangers lurk ’round corners
and hands of reason reach out for me.
Running! Running! As fast as I can.
Breathing heavily, searching, searching
for the exit; it eludes me
Right or left, back the way I came?
Turning in circles, crying out for a way home.

There it is! An exit to the other world,
I crave, for to be free and let live
my hearts desire at long last.
There are no rules that love cannot conquer.
I know the way is to follow my heart’s
every desire.
In my past, a distant memory,
I leave and lose myself in a
world oh so divine!
