She
Drives to work and
Does the laundry and
Balances the checkbook and
Walks the dog and
Raises the kids.
All that, all day, week, month.

In her day to day there is satisfaction and
Love and
Peace.
But
In her dreams she shreds guitar and
Paints masterpieces and
Writes best sellers.
Someday is passing her and
She wonders when and how to make it all happen and
In the meantime she yearns.

Write now, right now!

It's time to blog again. I've been blowing up my Facebook and still holding back because it's hard to remember which group to publish which posts to. So here I am, back again, after another long break. I've been writing my dreams down pretty regularly which is a start, but those are definitely not for a wide audience. But as I've said before, I need to write, to express my creativity, my thoughts and ideas. They overflow when I keep them bottled up. So, even if it's a line, a paragraph or a while story...here I go again :)
I've been going through a "phase." Mid life? Not quite yet. Needing some change? Absolutely. I cut my hair super short and have been hankering for another tattoo. I'm very, very happy with my marriage, home and work. Being on the road a lot this last 6 months reminded me how lonely I can be if I don't make an effort to reach out. And though I still have urges to paint writing is my outlet of choice. So here goes.
