Journey to a New World

The world can look so different just by opening yourself to new perspectives. Can you stray from your comfort zone and look at things from all sides just to get another point of view?

Inside Joke

This is for a friend who is "a zillion" miles away and in the cold weather. Thought this might help bring a smile to you on a Monday morning! Remember next time you are in charge of the keys... :)

Hold Back

A home where all were welcome by open doors. Presented like an outstretched hand; warm, compassionate, giving of everything without looking ahead to the possible consequences.
Nothing held back….

Too many have come just to take and never fully giving anything of themselves in return. Now worn and run down. Whole sections of the home completely crumbled only rubble remains. Other areas have had pieces stolen from its walls and floors leaving it’s last remaining support and foundation weak.
Hold back….

Consequences have taken their toll, the home is now closely guarded by blockades to act as it’s own protection so no intruder can harm the last of it’s supporting walls. Left forgotten the wind is the only penetrable visitor. Unaware what is carried on the wind is the soft whispers of a voice. Words, barely audible creep in through the cracks of the blockades becoming more clear the closer they get to their destination. The battered door hung on rusty hinges and is tightly held shut by several locks. The home draws in a depth breath summoning up the last of its remaining strength. Can these words act as keys to open a door considered to be forever closed?
Just hold back….

In my thoughts

We live most of our lives in our thoughts. Memories act as direct journeys back to points of time. Whether they are good, bad or indifferent you travel to these places the same way. You may hear a song, smell a fragrance, see an object or person that instantly trigger your thoughts to take you away from the present and into your own world. Frozen by your thoughts, your body is still, your face is expressionless, but your eyes tell your story.

Views

Some radiate with their beauty displaying it for the entire world to see.

Others hide it like a carefully guarded secret, so not to draw any attention at all, only showing what they would rather the world to see. Not ever really realizing or admitting how exquisite they truly are.

There are the outsiders passing by, few rarely taking time for a closer look. Then there are those that have the ability to recognize when they catch even just a glimpse of hidden beauty. Having that talent is a gift almost like being given a all access pass to enter a world that a select few are fortunate enough to see.
