Poems from the Vault – Exploration.
Take a read if you wish. The world is mapped and explored, but so much is waiting to be discovered within each and every one of us. Self discovery is an adventure just as entertaining as anything we’d see in an Indiana Jones movie. It’s a whole other world entirely, and it’s worthy of our attention. Stay creative.
Poems from the Vault – The Power of the Storm.
Here’s a random oldie plucked from the Vault; check it out if you wish. Thanks for reading, be well, and stay creative.
Quotes – Shine.
Stars shine on a regular basis…without fail. Why can’t we? What’s stopping us from being our best? Find your joy in the little parts of every day. We can do it when we try…and when we make a point to be awake.
Quotes – The Goals.
Just a little silly wordplay here, but the message is solid. Dreams and goals are great foundations to build upon; the pursuit of them adds to and benefits our lives in a great many ways. Find and follow yours.
SnowPorn.
Everything about this little space gives me the snowy smiles (whatever the snowy smiles are, this photo conjures them up). It’s a quiet corner tucked away gently…we don’t even need to envision the home itself to appreciate the calming peace that this corner exudes. It’s just enough of the rustic to give it an edge, and just enough comfort to give it warmth. And you can’t beat the view. I’d cozy up here with my coffee and drift away easily. Let the daydreams commence.
Light your fire, grab your coffee (or wine), snag your book…and cozy up to the warmth of this week’s great wintry space.
1000 Posts.
One. Thousand. Posts. A thousand posts. That’s quite a lot of random musings amassed over the course of eight years, and I have to say, it’s been a long, challenging, exciting, tiring, but ultimately satisfying ride. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve thought about (and damn near highly considered) quitting this blog. On many a day, it has seemed like a complete waste of time…but in the end, the passion to communicate and the deep drive to create and express wins out.
I consider myself a writer, and Writers Write. I don’t believe that a writer should write for likes and follows. I believe that a writer should write what’s written on the inside. Sounds cheesy and cliche, but it’s true. We all have a message or messages within us, just waiting to see the light of day; we all have a voice waiting to be spoken in whatever medium gives it life. Convey it, whatever it may be.
No preachy preaching from me, though…just write. You can’t reach everyone….so just be true to yourself and create. Cast your net out there…it doesn’t matter how big it is. If you can snag a few fish, then smile. If you don’t, keep going and smile anyway. Do your thing, stick with it, be consistent, and give your voice a stage. And most importantly, many, many thanks to those that have taken part in the journey! Your support is priceless, and I thank you.
