Roots Deep

The support we have blesses us so
We have so much, enough to grow

Our family and loved ones, roots deep like a tree
Fast, graceful and enduring, the weeping willow is

Beautiful like water from a well placed underground
Close to the center of the Earth where all of creation is formed

Like the soil that comes from a volcano
Prolific creation

Blessed Support

Quiet Space

I don't feel like music 
I've been listening to it all day

The way I constantly contradict myself when I talk to my kids
Makes my head spin in circles 

Sometimes I think I'm just talking out loud to myself
Correcting my mistakes and teaching myself how to go about life

Hopeful Comfort

Finding some sort of routine in my life helps me to feel good, like I have something to look forward to. Even if it's just a cup of coffee in the morning or a cup of tea in the afternoon.
Even if it's watching the sunrise or the sunset each day.
Even if it's my baby waking me up way earlier than I'd like.
Even if it's the dogs asking to go outside for their duties.
Looking at the father of my children.
Looking into the eyes of my children.
Spending time with my mom and dad.
A visit with my brother or my sister and their families.
Jotting down thoughts about life.
What goals to set for 2018, 2019, 2020...
