keep it simple stupid
it's getting to be the 
only way
to go

Good Morning Everyone,

Well, if the weatherman is right, I will not be straying too far from home. So it will give me a chance to rest a little bit and maybe get some writing in. It all depends on the legs and how much sleep I can get. It is all good and is getting better all of the time. 

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

the best of times
the worst of times
all of the time
but there always seems to be something
that is left unsaid
unannounced
or simply forgotten

Good morning everyone,

Not knowing what to write about is not always the problem. The problem can lay in how it is that I want to say what it is that I want to say. Sometimes it is good and sometimes it is bad. Sometimes you simply manage to fall through the cracks.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

In this world
where nothing seems right anymore
that there are no absolutes
and if it feels good, 
do it
what becomes of personal responsinility\
integrity
doing what is right
no matter what the cost
it all sounds nice
but how many of us
if called upon to do it 
will be able to do it

good morning everyone,

In the whole political scheme of things, does it really matter who is right and who is wrong, because, in the end, it is the people that end up getting screwed, and the politicians end up making money. What is wrong with this picture.

In the end,
does it really matter 
where we finish
because we are all going to finish
and in the end
it really isn't going to matter

we can let ourselves rise to great
or we can be great at being mundane
we each find our own level
it is just a matter of how much we 
are willing to work at

sometimes
a quiet moment
a cigarette
a cup of coffee
is all that I need
to get back into 
the game

Good Morning everyone,

It's all good, because Christmas is almost here, which means that it will finally be over and we all can get on with our lives. I hope that you are all well and that I will be hearing from you soon.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

we can be at a loss for words
but words,
as they will,
will always come back
but time,
once lost
will never come back
so be careful what you do with it

Good Morning Everyone,

Well, there is nothing that we can do about it, but Christmas will be here whether we are ready for it or not. I still need to pick up a couple of small things, but if I get to it I get to it, but there is always next year.

sometimes,
if I had to wait to speak until spoken to
then I would be a long time since you would be hearing from me
so, 
the only thing that I can do is to make my own noise
and pray that there will be someone who will be listening 
to what it is that I have to say

Good Morning everyone,

The way that I have been feeling over the past few nights, I am feeling that I may never sleep through the nights again. I have never been that good of a sleeper, to begin with, but over the past two or three years it just seems to be getting worse, and that is not a good thing, not a good thing at all. I am trying to make this an early night because the next couple of days are going to be long days, and I have miles to go before I sleep. It's all good. This too shall pass.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

I know
that whenever I am feeling up against it all
and there seems that there is nothing more I can do
except to just be true to me 
and to the people that mean the most to me
the rest of it will happen on its own 

Good Morning Everyone,


Ever get the feeling that there are just certain parts of your life that you wish that you had more control over, but you don't, simply because you hate your job, and took quit would not be the most responsible thing that you have ever done, and there is not even a promise of what might be a good paying job. So you swallow your pride one more time, to do not what you want to do but what you have to do. The rest of it is in God's hands.

days
months 
years
filled with love,
filled with dread 
filled with whatever
each new day will bring me 

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Good Morning Everyone,

This will be short because the real world had more of my attention then what I would have liked, but what else can I do, I need to make a living. now if I were getting paid by the word for doing all of this, then life would be a whole lot easier, but I do not think that it works that way, at least not right now. 

I hope that you are all well. So it goes. Press on regardless.

Looking for words amongst what I am calling my life,
beginning to believe that there will be something other than just marking time,
laughing at myself for taking it all so seriously,
but what else can I do,
other then to try and follow the path that I have been put upon.
Going in to the mystic,
following the sun,
the rain,
the beginning of time.
Living on coffee,
cigarettes and a dream.
What else is there,
When the world gives you nothing else,
other and what you want and what you need are two different things.
The last time that I felt this way was yesterday, and tomorrow is not looking very good either.

Good Morning Everyone,
 
I am still find myself believing that one of these days I will find myself in a position that one of these days I will be in a position where I will be able to write full-time and that I will be able to go to a whole other level as far as how much and what I am writing about, but until that time, the only thing that I am going to be able to do right now is to just keep on doing what I am doing as best as I can do it, in the hope that one of these days it will be just as I had hoped that it would be.
 
I like to believe that will finally happen and that I will be able to make something of this thing that I am calling my life. In the meantime, I still have to go off every day and work at a job that I am not very happy with other than for the fact that I have a job. I fully understand that if you do not work you do not eat and that is the way that it all goes, whether I like it or not.
 
I am still thinking that at one time in my life I had always believed that I would be further along the path the what I am right now and that I would already be doing all of the things that I need to be doing. There are times when I just find myself getting so frustrated with the way that my life is going because I am not able to do all of the things that I am wanting to do, that I could just scream. What else is there left for me to do except to just do what I need to be doing and just pray that all of this will finally come true? The best is yet to come I am sure.
 
So, it goes. Press on regardless.

We dream
we hope
we pray
we do all of the things
that is expected of us
and we still manage to get it wrong
but the best that we can do
is to get back up and try it again

Good Morning Everyone,


This whole election thing is simply getting to be too much. I think that my head is about ready to explode all of this is simply way too much information. No matter how all of this will finally shake out, we are still going to be the ones that are going to end up getting the short end of the stick. So what else is new?

So it goes. Press on regardless.

what do you do
when you are in a situation
or at least observing a situation
that is making less and less sense to you
and that the only thing that you can do is just pray over it
the best thing that you can do
is just pray for the whole country
and that we can find more to bring us together
then is driving us apart
in the end
where are we going
and what are we going to do 
if we cannot get along
yet there are certain realities that cannot be denied
and that is
that when passions run so high
that all common sense gets lost
then the only hope that we have
is a whole lot of prayer
a country that prays together 
will stay together
it just might be the only hope that we have left 

​Good Morning Everyone,

The midterm elections will be in a few days and I will be so glad when the whole thing will finally be over with. Right now I do not care what side of the political aisle that you are on or who is sitting in the chair, it just seems to me that there is so much finger pointing on both sides that there is nothing getting done, and the people are the ones getting hurt. Instead of finding what unites us as Americans, we are too busy creating more problems than we are solving. I am finding myself getting so frustrated with both sides that I can just scream. I am beginning to think that once a person gets to Washington as a politician, that they suddenly lose the common sense that they were born with, and are to busy trying to hold onto their own jobs and save their political necks. Am I being too cynical or am I being a realist? Feel free to tell me what you think.

at night,
when I cannot sleep,
the muse is not cooperating,
and my bed is empty
I sip my coffee and work on a cigarette,
I find myself listening to the most haunting silence,
that anyone has ever heard,
and it is enough to make me weep,
but I do not,
do you?
