All The Things You Are Not and What You Are

You are not your age,
Nor the size of clothes you wear.
You are not a weight,
Nor the colour of your hair.
You are not your name,
Nor the dimples in your cheeks.
You are the books you read,
And the words that you speak.
You are the sweetness in your laughter,
And every tear you have cried.
You are the songs you sing so loudly,
When you think you are alone.
You are the places you have been ,
And the ones that you call home.
You are the things that you believe in,
And the people that you love.
You are the photos in your bedroom,
And the future that you dream of.
You are the person you see in the mirror,
and the one who smiles back at you.
You’re made of so much beauty,
But it seems that you forgot,
When you decided that you were defined,
By all the things you’re not.

A Trail of Chaos, Victims and Anquish

Like other Canadians across the country, I cannot fathom the tragedy of Canada’s worst mass shooting that struck the beautiful province of Nova Scotia last weekend.
Words do not seem sufficient. My heart and condolences go out to all those directly affected. Life will never be the same.

Coronavirus Letter To Humanity

Posted:Apr 13, 2020 9:23 pm
Last Updated:May 12, 2020 11:31 am 74476 Views

The earth whispered but you did not hear.
The earth spoke but you did not listen
The earth screamed but you turned her off.
And so I was born...
I was not born to punish you..
I was born to awaken you..
The earth cried out for help...
Massive flooding. But you didn't listen.
Burning fires. But you didn't listen.
Strong hurricanes. But you didn't listen.
Terrifying Tornadoes. But you didn't listen.
You still don't listen to the earth when
Ocean animals are dying due to pollutants in the waters.
Glaciers melting at an alarming rate.
Severe drought.
You didn't listen to how much negativity the earth is receiving.
Non-stop wars.
Non-stop greed.
You just kept going on with your life..
No matter how much hate there was..
No matter how many killings daily..
It was more important to get that latest iPhone than worry about what the earth was trying to tell you..
But now I am here.
And I've made the world stop on its tracks.
I've made YOU finally listen.
I've made you take refuge.
I've made you stop thinking about materialistic things..
Now you are like the earth...
You are only worried about YOUR survival.
How does that feel?
I give you fever.. As the fires burn on earth.
I give you respiratory issues.. As pollution fills the earth air.
I give you weakness as the earth weakens every day.
I took away your comforts..
Your outings.
The things you would use to forget about the planet and its pain.
And I made the world stop...
Start believing in a Creator.
Because next time I may come back even stronger....
Signed, And now...
China has better air quality. Skies are clear blue because factories are not spewing pollution into the earth's air.
The water in Venice is clean and dolphins are being seen. Because the gondola boats that pollute the water are not being used.
YOU are having to take time to reflect on what is important in your life.
Again I am not here to punish you.. I am here to Awaken you...
When all this is over and I am gone... Please remember these moments..
Listen to the earth.
Listen to your soul.
Stop Polluting the earth.
Stop Fighting among each other.
Stop caring about materialistic things.
And start loving your neighbours.
Start caring about the earth and all its creatures
Coronavirus

Tribute to International Women's Day
|

International Women's Day grew out of the labour movement and has become an United Nations recognized annual event.
The origins began in 1908, when fifteen thousand women marched through New York City demanding shorter working hours, better wages and voting rights.
I found these words a few ‘yrs’ ago. I felt strongly enough that I posted them then and feel the same today:
The world is filled with people who, no matter what you do, no matter what you try, will simply not like you. But the world is also filled with those who will love you fiercely. The ones who love you; they are your people.
Don't waste your finite time and heart trying to convince people who aren't your people that you have value. They will miss it completely. They won't buy what you are selling.
Don't try to convince them to walk your path with you because you will only waste your time and your emotional good health.
You are not for them and they are not for you. You are not their cup of tea and they are NOT yours.
Politely wave them along and you move away as well.
Seek to share your path with those who recognize and appreciate your gifts, who YOU are.
Be who YOU are! You are not everyone’s cup of tea and that is OK

One of the most popular male bloggers has gone ‘poof’.
Has he packed up his pen and paper and left ply his writing skills elsewhere?
Has he decided step back, take a break, re-energize and will be back? Guess we will just have wait and see.
Whatever the reason, his presence is missed.

A Day of Reflection.....Grateful To Be Alive!

When you are faced with a life-threatening condition, you have 2 options: You can give up and surrender or you can fight with every fibre of your being. One year ago, for the second time in just over a decade, I chose the latter.
When laying in Emergency, I came ‘this close’ towards crossing over but knew I wasn’t ready. Later, when I was having tests and scans done, a technician said, ‘You must have a guardian angel looking out for you. Not many people survive what you have. But I know you will be OK’. I knew exactly what he meant and those words will resonate forever.
Every day was and is a journey. There was a battery of tests and consultations until a comprehensive diagnosis was made and treatment plan outlined.
After 6 days, I was sent home, knowing more challenges were ahead and new milestones to reach. I was afraid to go to sleep at night, in case I didn’t wake up. I would say out loud, ‘Please let me wake up tomorrow. I am not ready to leave.’
Now, I am less patient. I don’t ‘sweat the small stuff’. I cringe when I hear or read people whining about what I perceive be trivial stuff. Most of the time, I shake ‘my’ head incredulously, bite ‘my’ tongue and hold back from commenting.
I have battled back. I am a long way from where I was a year ago. Not yet a hundred percent but so much closer. Recently the Doctor remarked once again, I am here today because I am a strong, determined and resilient woman.
I don’t usually share such personal information about myself. I decided to do so to remind everyone, not to take anything for granted. Live and appreciate each day of your life, the best you can, as you don’t know, if there will be a tomorrow.

The Long Awaited Kiss

If words are missing, blame Citymixx
He moved towards her, closing his hand around her shoulder. Deliberately, he turned her around to face him.
“Whatever, you do, do not say you are sorry,” he said, “I am doing this for 'my' reasons.”
She managed a smile. “I know. You are doing it because you can’t stop yourself. You are a guardian angel by nature.”
“No, I am doing it at least in part, because I have a few questions. But I have must make something very clear.”
“And what would that be? ” she asked a little puzzled.
“Mostly, I am doing this because of you.”
She was not sure how she should respond but it didn’t matter because he kissed her then and she was stunned into speechlessness.
The kiss was not a teenage ’s fantasy come true. It was much more, because she was a woman now and she knew enough about kissing be able judge his kiss. It was not the kiss of her girlish dreams. There was nothing sweet or romantic or gently, seductive about it. This was all about primal, masculine desire and fiercely controlled passion. This was the kind of a kiss a man gave a woman when he sets out make it clear, he wants her.
She knew intuitively there were different possible responses to such a kiss. She could return it with fervent interest or she could break free and walk back towards her car. There was no middle ground. There never would be with him.
For the first time in her life, she realized there was no middle ground for her either. She went all in, wrapping her arms around him and kissing him back with a sensual hunger she had never before experienced. Excitement sent adrenaline racing throughout her body.
He freed her lips and moved his mouth toward her ear, she was hot and cold, breathless and a little shaky. She clutched him, savouring his musky scent and the hard feel of his unyielding body. When she kissed the skin of his throat he exhaled deeply. She wasn’t sure if it was a sign of pleasure or surprise.
He used one finger to raise her chin. His mouth came back down on hers in another intense kiss. She could feel the heat of the fire smouldering just beneath the surface.
He shuddered, took a deep breath and held her slightly away from him. In the moonlight his eyes were darkly brilliant.
Fascinated, she touched the side of this jaw. He turned his mouth into her hand and kissed her palm.
“Don’t tell me, you didn’t see this coming,” he said, his voice rough and edgy. “Because I sure didn’t.”
“I saw it coming,” she admitted. “But, it still caught me by surprise.”
“I didn’t think I could still get surprised like this.”
She smiled. “Years ago, I had a huge crush on you. But you barely knew I existed.”
He pushed her hair back from her face with his fingers. “You were just very young then.”
”Yes, I know, but I’m definitely not anymore.”
“So I noticed.” He brushed his mouth lightly across hers. “ I would give a lot to take you to bed tonight but it’s probably too soon and there’s no bed.” It wasn’t a statement, she realized. It was a question.
“I’m sure the problem of a bed could be easily fixed,” she said. “But you are right, it’s too soon.” She slipped out of his embrace and headed back toward her car.
“Hey! You could have at least argued with me about the timing.”
She laughed and he did too. He caught up with her and kissed the tip of her nose and opened her car door.
She smiled confidently. “How will you know when the time is right?” she asked.
“Don’t worry, I will tell you,”
“Promise me you won’t forget.”
“Trust me, I won’t forget.”

Realizing She's Not His One Night Stand

She looked around the dimly lit bar. The music was dying down and most of the tables had cleared . He was right, they both should get going.
Almost reluctantly, she slowly stood up and after a moment, he followed her. She felt his gentle touch as he placed his hand on the small of her back and guided her towards the door.
Outside, the night was cool and the stars twinkled as they lit her path.
She could smell his subtle, expensive cologne. He was strong, intelligent and confident. Previously, she hadn't tried finding someone who challenged her in the ways he did. She’d always just gone with the unquestioning, less challenging ones, those who didn't dare ask too many questions. It seemed safer way.
She looked up at him and his questioning, blue eyes which seemed to see too much. She took an instinctive step back, confused and suddenly spooked. His head had already dropped forward and his lips brushed against her cheek.
“I don’t know what I am doing here. I have policies about these things,” he said as his lips fell to the hollow of her neck. She knew better, but she didn’t want it to stop. The kiss was light and teased her.
He raised his head. “I am not into one night stands. I’m too old for that sort of crap. I have all the things I’m proud of in my life. I don’t believe in one night escapism anymore. I don’t see the point.”
She tried to open her mouth to argue but he cut her off brushing his lips over hers. She was startled and surprised. He stopped and lingered for a moment. He held her lightly, giving her plenty of room; it made her both grateful and disappointed.
She had just started to lean forward when he broke off the kiss.
“I’m interested in you,” he murmured against her ear. “You are not what I expected. You are smart. You are complicated. And I already know you won’t go home with me tonight.”
“You are right. I won’t,” she whispered.
His hands fell from her back as he stepped away. Her arms grew cold as she shivered and watched him walk over to his car. She didn’t call him back. She had her own vehicle so she could drive herself home. It was another of her self-imposed rules, designed to keep herself safe.
She watched as he drove away. And, after another moment, she went home. Alone.

You have never left my thoughts, since the day you passed away.
The beautiful memories of the times we spent together, make me smile.
There are days, I wish I could have you back, for just a little while.
Then we could sit and talk again, just like we used to do.
You always meant so much to me, and forever, will too.
I find myself doing a double-take, when I see your image in the mirror....until I realize, it's me....not you.
