​It’s just a thought.

There are times, when the only thing left to do, is to throw all caution to the wind, and just let yourself be yourself. In the end, the only person that you can be is you, anything else would be a lie, and there is nothing worse, then finding out, that you have been living a lie, except when it violating some higher moral law. 

The best thing to do is to just live a life, not only a life well lived, or a life that is honest, but a life that others may not fully understand, because it will all be good. It’s just a thought.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

sometimes we have to look to our own past
to try and reconcile some sort of future
to be
not the person that we think that others think that we should be
but to be ourselves
and finding out who that person is
and letting that person live
can take a very long time
it may mean losing a lot of people along the way,
but if they cannot except you as you
then they are not worth having around

Good Morning Everyone,

Sometimes, looking back on where my life has taken me up to this point, it seems that I would have planned the whole thing differently, as if we could plan the whole thing, and still be able to make the whole thing work. I the end, the only thing that I, or that any of the rest of us can do, is simply take what it is that we have been given, and pray for the rest.

At other times, the only thing that I, or that any of us can really do, is close our eyes, say our prayers, and jump into the future, hoping that we will be able to land on our feet. The rest of it is out of our control.

There are times when we all think that we ar in control of the way that things are going in our lives, and oat other times, it all just seems so out of control. Well the only thing left to do right now, is just take it all a moment at a time, believing that there will be a better time, a better day, a better way of doing all that we need to be doing. 

Is it true? Well it all depends upon where you are sitting.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

Good Morning All Of You Hipsters,

Long nights, filled with the sounds of soft tenor sax, and a memory of a girl that I once knew. Sometimes, life can be good.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Yours In The Spirit Of The Music,

Sunday Morning Greetings,

Here we are again, at the beginning of another week, knowing it all to be true, that God is still in control, and that there is nothing that there is nothing that is going to change that. I pray that you all had a blessed week that just passed, and that the Lord will fill your week with nothing but good things. It’s all good.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

So this is what a writer does. Sits at a desk in an otherwise darkened room and swear at his computer all day, and if he is luck, he gets paid very well to do it to.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

So here I am, trying to write, it is just a question of what I am going to say next.

So it goes. Press on regardless. 

Good Morning All Of You Caffeine Junkies,

There has been more then one time in my life, when it seemed that the only friend that I had, was my coffee, my cigarettes and the night. Other times, some of the best times that I had, were sharing my time over coffee that would not have been as good, if it had not been for the person that I was with. Sometimes, life is good.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Yours In The Spirit Of The Bean,

​It’s Just A Thought.

It’s just a thought. It just a thought that in this world we simply need to be kinder to each other. That we need to hold onto each other. To hold into all of those that are really important to us. That in the end, this is the only thing that any of us can do. In the end, it really doesn’t matter. It’s all good.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

​friends

we may go through our lives knowing a lot of people
but the number of people that we can count on
no matter what happens
or where our lives take us
that we can always count on them
no matter what
so keep them
hold onto them
cultivate that
whatever it takes
because there may come a time
when it just might be to late
and being to late
can be one of the worst things that can happen to us.

​some people just don’t get it

some people just don’t get it
that there are things that I do
that I need to be doing
that some people simply do not understand
and that where I am 
or where I think that I am as a person,
may not be where they think that I should be
or that they are at a place in there lives
where they are not where it is that they think that they should be
and are angry jealous because of it
either way
I cannot let myself get caught up in what most people think
that in the end
there are very few people that I know
that I care enough about
to lose sleep over what it is that they think
or do not think about me
or of me
but it is all good
and the world is filled with background music

​Saturday January 28 2018

well here I am again
trying to figure out where the muse is going to take me,
and at the moment,
it hasn’t been very far
but I find myself ready for the journey

​Life begins.

Life begins when we are willing to forgive the past
live in the present
and hope for the future
and the rest of it will become background music
if we are only willing to let it be so
until then
we deal with what we have 
and what we are willing to remember

​Well into my years.

I am well into my years
and thinking that I should know better
but knowing better is not knowing what to do
what to say
or what to feel
when life bring people in
or back into out lives
that brings up thoughts
feelings
ideas
that have long been buried
hidden
or otherwise forgotten
but now
are as powerful as they were
when they were first felt
believing that I should know better
wanting to know better
thinking that I should know better
but there is nothing that I can do
except to feel what it is that I need to feel
think what it is that I need to think
and believe what is that I need to believe
in a world that I think that I should be knowing better
in a place that I thought that I would be far from all of that
but it is much closer then any of us are willing to belive
or even understand
but try as I might right now
I still cannot help but feeling sixteen years old ago
an wanting it all to go away
but knowing that it will not
until I release it
but even then
there is no forgetting

well into my years
I keep on knowing all of the things that have happened between now
and what I am calling my youth
and if I could go back there
and tell my younger self
not to take it all so seriously
that life does
and will go on
though there are times when we wished that it wouldn’t
but what else is there left to say
except time and experience
are some of the best and most patient of healers
we just have to know when
and that could take a lifetime.

​Coffee and Cigarettes.

There has been times in my life
when I have known a lot of people
but have felt alone
with no where to go
nothing to do
to the point of dispar
but not beaten
so I finish my coffee
put out my cigarette
and get back in the game.

Good Morning Everyone,

There are times, even when the best of us, need to try and get some slpeep, but at this point, it doesn’t look like it is going to be any time soon, at least for me. So the only thing that I am going to be able to do right now is to just wait and see what will happen, but it is all good and is getting better all of the time. What else is there left to believe in?

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

​It’s Just A Thought.

It’s just a thought, but it is becoming something that I have been thinking more and more about as of late, and that is the fact that I need to start managing my time better. I think that if I had actually started managing my time better, as much as I have been thinking about the idea that I need to be managing my time better, then I think that I just might be managing my time better. 

At the same time though, if I didn’t have to sleep, then I think that it would help to save a lot of time, time that I could otherwise be putting to better use. I don’t think that it works that way though. It’s just a thought.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

​sleep

there has been times when sleep would not come
and other times,
when the only thing that I have been able to do is sleep
so in the end
it all balances out,
and no one even misses me
or even cares
but sometimes 
that can be a good thing

​Wednesday January 24 2018

thinking of all of those that I can remember
that have passed through my life
all of those,
both great and small
and those that I wish that I can forget,
but in the end,
we all have that part of our lives,
that we only let ourselves see
and occasionally admit to ourselves, 
that is actually what happened
and nothing more

Good Morning Everyone,

In the time that it takes me to write this email, there are times when the only thing that I know right now is that in Washington with all of this spending bill nonsense that is going on, it just seems to me, and this is just a thought, that it is little more then just business as usual, but there are those in all of this, that is still committed to whatever it is that they are committed to, whether it be a good thing or a bad thing.

It is my way of thinking that they are little more then just a bunch of clowns, regardless of what side of the aisle that you are on. Still, the only thing that I am going to be able to do is just sit here and do a little bit of spouting, or maybe a lot of spouting, but what else can I do? What else can any of us can do except to just keep on doing what we are doing. 

In the meantime, the only thing that I know is that what is or isn’t going oin in my life at this point, pales to what may or may not happen in Washington. There are times when I wonder why it is that I bother, simply because it is just a question of the people just sitting by, for the most part, and doing nothing. In the end, we are  the ones who are going to be the ones who end up getting screwed. 

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

​It’s just a thought.

It’s just a thought, but when I look back on my life and wonder where it is that I will be going, but it is all good, because there is always hope. It is all good.

​There are times when it just doesn’t seem to be working.

There are times when it all just doesn’t seem to be working
no matter where it is that I want to be
or where it is that I want to be going
all that I am sure of right now
is that there is always tomorrow
even though there are times when tomorrow never seems to be getting here.

Friday January 19 2018

knowing that there are times and places that are out of our control
and wishful thinking will not make it better
is this as good as it gets?

​Something To Say.

Some times we need something to say
just to keep from getting stale,
but even then,
the only thing that I can find myself doing
is just to keep on searching for just the right combination of words
silly I know
because there may not ever be such a thing,
but the only thing that I can do right now,
is to just keep on trying
what else is there?

Good Morning Everyone,

The one thing for sure at this point is that I am still looking for a  better way to try and mange my time better. I am sure that if I looked hard enough, that I would be able to find something on line that would help with the cause. Of course it is just a question of making the time to be able to do all of that, and then trying to apply what it is that I am learning, if indeed I am learning anything at all.

I think that at this point in my life, part of the problem is that my schedule for my real job out in the real world is leaving more then just a little bit to be desired, bit what else can I do at this point, except to take what it is that I am given and pray for the rest. It’s all good, and is getting better all of the time.

In the meantime, I pray that all of you are well and that I will be hearing from you soon. It’s all good.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee
