"You stand up for what you believe in, even if it gets you in the way of what others think..."

My photo
if i could use one word to describe my life SERENDIPITY seems to fit the space... i stumbled upon my husband during a time i shouldn't have and my story goes on from there... constantly falling or stumbling upon remarkable gifts and people who bring fortune to our lives... when we fall we learn and strive toward the next step.

a moment~




sometimes all it takes
is a piece of
dark chocolate
to put life into perspective


sometimes life has a strange way of showing
with its moments that arise

how one minute
all is exactly as you wished it to be

and in a split second
the walls are crumbling
falling down

you find yourself staring out a window
looking at a scene
 that just doesn't fit your picture painted

its uncomfortable
and awkward

heartache
and pain

its not where you want to be
where you want to wait the minutes out

scheming and plotting your next move
knowing if it is the wrong one

your life will forever change
possibly in the wrong direction

taking you so far away
from where your heart is longing to remain

feeling like a pawn in a chess game
strategizing which way to slide
finding a move that will lead you home

ah...its been a long week
{and yes i know its only a few days into it}
if you could believe that

thankful i found my moment

I am so glad you found your moment. Gosh sometimes it seems as though the "whew" moments are so far apart. Smooches, Oma Linda

Do you read each of the wrappers like I do?

Rue said...

I love those little sayings inside the wrappers! They've also started putting them on Halls cough drop wrappers too, which I just discovered last week while fighting a cough. It's amazing how a few encouraging words can make a difference.

Wishing you peace and happiness!

Mother Moon said...

know so what you are talking about.... at least we do have those little moments that can take us away for just a bit..... whether it be chocolate, a smile from a child, or the birth of spring. blessings

those moments, in such turmoiled times, are life rafts.

Barry said...

B-I just had to laugh out loud when I read the line and saw the photo - puts it all into perspective. There are days and moments that are challenging but as you say there are just blissful or important moments and these can make the others fade a little or a lot. Thinking of you.Go well. B
