Good Morning Everyone,

Sometimes, the only thing that I can do is to just try and get through all of the things that life will give me, or not give me, and hope that there will be a time when the only thing that I am just going to be able to do what I can do is to just keep on doing all of these things. Well we shall see what will happen next. It is what it ios when you are not feeling 100%. It all gets better. It’s all good. 

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

​It’s just a thought.

It’s just a thought, but there are times, when the only thing that I can do is just keep on typing, through it out there, and simply hope that it has some impact somewhere. In the end, the only thing that I know or care about seems to come to an end all to soon, and I am left wondering what it is that I could have done differently. Isn’t that always the way? Well it is just a thought.

​When all else fails

there are times we go through our lives
without giving any thought to what we do
or why we do it
until something comes along to disrupt that routine
and we find ourselves feeling out of bounds
out of touch
and out of time
and when all else fails
we either pray
or blame the new guy

​Tuesday February 27 2018

the older that I get
the faster the time goes
the hours 
days 
years slip away 
as they always do
knowing that all of this
is nothing new
and the questions still remain
the biggest one always being
where does the time go

​This is what it feels like to be ignored.

So this is what it feels like to be ignored
when you but yourself out there 
in some vain hope
to at least be noticed by someone
anyone
with the idea that you will at least be acknowledged
but what good is it
what good is it when you have at it
day after day
night after night
for what seems to be years
what seems to be forever
knowing in your heart of hearts
that there are very few who hear
and even fewer that care
that there is nothing in all of this
if there is not love
patients
understanding
to help lighten even the darkest of nights
but there is always that overwhelming sense of grief
even in the middle of what should be a good time
knowing 
that at the end of it all
you will still walk away alone

I have shed to many tears
but there is always more
when there is no one else left to see
or to understand
or to help lift the burden
but even with that in mind
what else is there left to do
except to live for one more day
even with the tattered hope
that today will be the day
when everything will get turned around
by divine providence
or the stroke of good fortune
in the end
what else is there

well there is plenty of other things that I can be doing
and it keeps me busy
but in the end
the only thing left to do is to pray that the nights pass quickly
because the nights can be the worst of all
and pray for a better dawn
what else is there
when this is what it feels like to be ignored 

in the end
it’s the only option
because at least I know that I am alive
which mut account for something

Good Morning Everyone,

I have found, that there are times when life does little more then play a dirty trick on us. That just when things start getting just a little to comfortable, things get changed up again. Maybe that is why life changes things, simply because we are getting just a little to comfortable and that we need to get shaken out of our complacency. It is all good though, even though the older that I get, the harder that I find to be dealing with change, whether it be for the good or for the bad. What else can I do? 

In the meantime, I pray that all of you are doing well and that for those of you who know what my email address is, don’t be afraid to reply. It’s all good.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

​It’s Just A Thought.

It’s just a thought, but there are times when I look back on what has been my life so far and wonder, when did I get to be this old? When did I get to feeling so nostalgic, to the point where it borders on the melancholy. Why do I find it so hard to except change, and to be holding into the way that things really should be, or the way that I think that things should be. 

I am finding myself knowing a lot of people, but the number of people that I would call my friends is numbering less then ten. Why is all of this happening to me now? So questions seem to have no answers. In the end it is all good. So it goes. Press on regardless.

sometimes
even when life seems to be going at it’s best
there are still so many other things that need out attention
that life takes control
and the things that are really important
always seem to get left behind
and we should not be leaving behind
those people and things that are important to us
because once they are gone
we may not be able to get them back
and losing those that are important to us
no matter what the circumstances
getting them back 
may be one of the most difficult things that we can do in our lives
if not impossible 

Good Morning Everyone,

There are times when I know that the world is going to go on if I miss one night of writing, regardless of what form that it takes, but the only thing that I kn ow right now is that just the thought of nit writing, even if it were just for one night, seems that it is going to be time that is lost. So the only thing that I am going to be able to do right now is to just try and get in a few minutes anyway, even though I am sure that it will ne more then just a few minutes, but the only thing that I know for sure is that I have not been sure of much of anything over the past week or so, but then again, it seems that there is nothing that is altogether certain in this life, even though we may think that it is.

Now with this school shooting in Florida yesterday, it reenforces my opinion about the need of a private individuals need to own an assault weapon, or an assault style weapon. Well this is just my opinion, and everyone has one. So the only thing that I know right now is that it is all going to get worse before it gets better. How many more people need to be killed before there is something done about all of this. In the end, the best thing that we can do right now, as individuals and as a notion is to pray for wisdom, discernment, and dare I say it, revival. 

I believe that this country needs a good healthy dose of old fashioned religion, Christian faith. This country needs Christ now more then ever. So pray if you know how. Pray as if your life, your soul and that of your country depends upon it, because it does.

Sorry, didn’t mean to preach, but it needs to be said, and I am not sure that I am the first one, but I pray that I am in a very long line of people who are will to say it, mean it, and believe it. It’s all good.  

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

​It’s Just A Thought.

It’s just a thought, but with all of the events in Florida over the past couple of days, with the shooting at the high school, we mourn for the victims, and ask ourselves why, and when will all of this end. As great as this tragedy is, and my heart goes out to the families of those who were lost. The we need to revamp our gun laws, and not just give it all lip service that it will be soon, but to just do it. Then to go the next step, and to pray. Pray that this country will turn from the way that it is going and turn back to the God of the Bible and pray that all of this will happen soon. That we will turn before it is to late. I pray that this will be the case. God helps if we don’t. So it goes. Press on regardless.

​in the end 

in the end,
the only thing left to do right now
is to keep on looking up
and looking forward
as well as looking back
on all that we have accomplished
and all that we need to be doing
that this is not an end
but another beginning,
that we need to put our trust
not in things that we know that cannot
that will not last
I people,
who even with the best of intentions
may often let us down
what else is there to believe in
not in the creation
but in the creator
and that He will begin to heal our land

​Friday February 16 2018

there are times when we all mourn
and I am morning for my country right now
in the way that it has turned 
in so many way, 
and the way that things should be
and the way that they were
knowing all to well
that in the end
there is still hope 
that we turn form ourselves
and turn to God
then there is still time to save ourselves
and save the place that we are calling home

Good morning everyone,


At the moment, I think that a good nights sleep just might be in order, but there has been a lot going on with work, and when I say work, I mean what I do out in the real world, and there is just a lot going on right now, and it just seems to be more then just a little bit stressful. Things happen like that sometimes. I hope 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

​It’s Just A Thought.

It’s just a thought, but every time I think about what it is that I am doing out in the real world, I am wondering why it is that I am bothering. Well we all need to do something.

​Poetry Sunday February 11 2018

so times I find myself wondering
if this is all that there is,
and if this is going to be just about as good as it gets
even with that in mind
the only thing left to do
is to wait for morning
and see what the new day will bring

Good Morning Everyone,

The only thing that I can do right now is just keep on thinking of what might have been, what could have been and the way that things turned out. There are simply some things that are out of our control. Wisdom comes when we realize that there are still things that we can change, and that there is still a chance that we can make things right. In the end, the only thing that any of us can do is just wait for that time. If we are honest with it, or as honest as we know how to be, and are willing to do it, then we can still make it all right, or as right as things can be made, in this life.

Sometimes, it is easier to lose the fight, then admit to the mistakes. The rest of it is out of our control. What else is there left to say about that, at least for now. It’s all good.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

​It’s Just A Thought.

It’s just a thought, but there are times when the only thing that I am going to be able to do, is just to try and live in the moment. To let go of the past, to forgive the present, and pray for the future. Knowing that it will all end much to soon, and that our world will either be taken along with it, or will be slowly left behind, to either decay into something more beautiful, or simply be forgotten. 

It is all to hard to understand, or to believe or to even think of what might happen next. That all of the dreams that I have will either come true or will not come true. There is no middle ground. The rest of it really does not matter. 

It’s just a thought. So it goes. Press on regardless.

​Never Believing

never believing that there will be something that is out of reach
unobtainable
out of the question
or never really impossible
that the only thing that I need to be doing is working harder
believing harder
and not paying attention to what most of the people that I know
are saying to me or about me
the first thing that I need to be doing
is knowing that there are just so many hours in the day, 
and that in that time
there are still to many other things that are requiring my time
but in the end
I still need to believe in myself
and in the gifts
no matter how limited
that I have been given
the rest of it is out of my control
what else is there left to say?
Well there are a lot of things that can be said
but in the end,
this just might be a good place to end it all

​Wednesday February 7 2018

wishing for something that I know will never come true
believing that if I pray hard enough
that things will change
but it is also a case of
be careful of what you pray for
because you just might get it

​Good Morning Everyone,

There are times, when one should stand and speak, other times, when one should sit and be silent. At the moment I am somewhere in the middle, not sure of what it is that I should do. So I think that this just might be enough said for one day. It’s all good.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee
