a little is not always enough, but sometimes it is all we have

Monday, September 10th 2007

a little
goes a long way
but sometimes
it is just not enough

a little energy
gets you
out the door
but then
you need
a great big push
to keep you going
and going
to reach
the pinnacle
wherever
that might be

a little progress
is uplifting
but sometimes
you want more
you want the
giant leap
not just of faith
but of forward motion
so you stop feeling
like you are standing
in one place
digging a hole
instead of
climbing the mountai...

beyond my dreams

Sunday, September 9th 2007

there's a place i go to
when i feel very sad
when my days are harried
and my sleep is bad

a place of comfort
and life long past
where my smile is always
and my memories hold fast

beyond my dreams
and away from the abyss
a place of solitude
a place of bliss

a haunting place
but peaceful just the same
laughter is the thunder
sweetness is the rain

i find myself there
adrift on a cloud
where i face my fears
and shout them out loud

i will not gi...

i am sad to report that the last of the juicy, sweet, mouth-watering watermelons are making their way to the markets in the northeast. in fact, i have already noticed that they are smaller, less succulent and often less ruby red than the wonderful melons of just a month ago. it's a miserable day for us diehard watermelon lovers. i can honestly say that i have eaten watermelon every single day for the past 3 months. it has been my go-to fruit and i will miss it so.

yes, the fall fruit se...

feeling stronger every day!

Thursday, September 6th 2007

got to get up
in the morning
feeling good
feeling positive
thinking great thoughts
about the 24 hours to come
hoping for the best
believing in the self
trusting in the process
feeling stronger
from one day
to the next

got to feel empowered
to take control
of the road i take
of the choices i make
of the spirits i let
guide me
of the influence
i have
over myself
for that's
the power
that will
take me
to the winner's circle
nothing else

g...

the girl with the big muscles

Wednesday, September 5th 2007

i realized that i shared this story with the century club, but not on my blog. i always say, you just have to laugh because otherwise we might cry.

my girlfriend marianne has an adorable nephew trevor. trevor is a big boy who just turned 5 and weighs 80 pounds. He is very tall and active but he is definitely overweight. They work very hard to help him lose weight. thankfully he has a wonderful disposition so he does well around other kids.

i got to know him pretty well at a party a f...
