THE STRUGGLE WITHIN – PART THREE

It was late… I was home, had my game face on and was trying my best to be a wife and mom.  I had gone to a festival with my family, met some friends there, and had a good time.  On the sidelines though taking up space in my head were some insecurities brewing.  In…

THE BEGINNING OF THE STORY-PART ONE

There are some things I wonder if this blog can handle.  I mean I committed to honesty and writing out my feelings no matter where they lead.  There are some things though, considering the real world (my friends, my family…they do occasionally read what I write) I am not sure I am ready to handle:…

HOLDING ONTO LIGHT

COMBUSTIBLE LAUGHTER

Have you ever been in the middle of an extremely stressful situation and just started laughing?  It has happened several times for me this week.  It is funny to me how a person can go from one extreme emotion to the next and when it ends in laughter can feel so peacefully calm after.  What…

DRESSED IN RAMMSTEIN

Sitting in the American Airlines Center waiting for Rammstein to perform. It isn’t really my type of music but I bought my husband tickets for his birthday. Getting dressed I had no idea what to wear. Do the fans wear Gothic Corsets? Do they wear tshirts with holey jeans? Are they all going to be…

COPA LOVE

  Tonight the world is dancing, Random glances are mesmerizing All around us faces glancing Sex in the music so hypnotizing Sweat, sweat, sweat as the body rocks Hips clasped together as the body rocks Hands roaming to the music as the body rocks Techno rage emerging as the body rocks Tonight the world is…
