Power

For a long time I have believed words have power.
Look at all the times hurtful things cut us so deeply.
I am learning and expanding my thoughts and feelings to understand
that it is better to use words wisely and with intent and consequence in mind always.
So I choose to use my words with the responsibility and full weight of consequence in my mind.

I choose to follow the following affirmation:
Positive thinking is even stronger when it is verbalized by our voices. 
There is definitely power in our words.




SO
I choose to try to find the positive in everything and anything.

AND

I choose to try to always:
support,
encourage,
uplift,
understand
and respond
to ALL with as much
patience and love as I can.

Verisimilitude

Verisimilitude

I love this word. This is what author's use in fiction stories to make their fiction feel more real and believable.

I'm writing a blog of practice topics and poems that I call Verisimilitude because it is the feeling of my truth. Well I hope it is anyway. I hope when you read them it will be evident who and how I am. If you would like to read my blog you can find it HERE. Thanks. :)

Desire

Desire: to wish or long for; want

Hmmm.....don't we all want things....don't we all wish to obtain the desires of our hearts.

I wish for things sometimes that I have had but have gone away...
like a first kiss....or the way your lover looks at you when everything is new...when he can't take his eyes off you and everything you do is an opportunity to touch and show affection for each other.

I know that to be together for a long period of time slows this newness or changes it into something different...it isn't firsts anymore but more the comfort you find in knowing he's still here and still the same and still in love...but I desire a newness again.

Boredom

Boredom: a condition wherein one finds their environment dull, tedious, and lacking in stimulation

This is me lately. I am just bored out of my skull!
I am having a hard time finding anything interesting or entertaining. Even movies which I usually enjoy bore me to tears. I don't know what to do about it but, I wish I did.

I should be writing I guess...maybe at the very least doing so would actually entertain me!
I just don't know what to write about as usual.

So...what do you do when you are bored?
I'm going to go try and have an entertaining, intellectual conversation with my hubby who is home sick today. Maybe that will be interesting.

Soul Mate

soul mate (plural soul mates)
noun
Definition:

somebody close to somebody else: somebody with whom somebody else naturally shares deep feelings and attitudes
Encarta definition.

What is a soul mate to you? My husband is my soul mate. He is and I share so many of the same thoughts and feelings we CAN complete each others thoughts and sentences and we can also think exactly the same thing at exactly the same time...still after 11 years together.

I think sometimes though soul mates don't just come as lovers. I think they also come as your friends too. Sometimes you just have a friend or two whom you seem to forge deeper bonds with than others...simply because they are also your soul mates.

I feel no stronger bond than the one with my husband as he is my best friend in all the world. The one I wish to share everything with. But, there are a couple of people in my life who I also have bonded with in strong, deep ways. I think we are meant to have these soul mates to give us a more full life and understanding of life.

Whatever the reason for them, I am grateful and deeply honoured to have them in my life.

WORDS have POWER!

Well I guess I have decided to write about whatever word strikes my fancy at any given moment! LOL

Not just the happy words or the ones I like but, also the words that are a part of my life and what is going on in it!

This week has been especially bad for me and I am just too stressed and numb from it to feel anything; to say anything; to deal with anything.

Sometimes it is just too much and you can't deal. I have had a lot of that in my life and I think truthfully if you let the downward momentum begin things just spiral down and down and down until you really don't know how to climb back up...or even if you want to.

That is me in a nutshell. ONLY I DO want to climb back up. I just freak out and give up too easy. Suggestions would be great if you're reading and understand my plight!
