Good Morning Everyone,

There are times when I sit down to write, as I sip my coffee, and let the music, whether it be something from the French Impressionists, or 1950's jazz, and the rest of it just happens. It takes me to a place, that unless it is something that you are families with, it is hard to explain, other then to say, when it is all going right, the real world. 

The world of work, and all of the things that go along with that, seem to be a million miles away, and that the only thing that really seems to matter is how much of all of this that I can get done. 

Well it is all good, and the only thing that I know right now is, that there are times, when all is going well with this, or seems to be going well, and the spell gets broken, it would seem that the world, at least at that moment, has ended, and there is nothing that is going to be able to get that back.

In the meantime, the only thing left to say is that I just hope at those times when I do have it, it lasts just a little longer each time. What else is there left to say, except that after all is said and done, this is one of the few things that I have in my life that I hve to look forward to and one of the few things in my life that I have been told that I was ever any good at, at all. 

Well this is about all for right now. As always, I pray that all of you are doing well and that I will be hearing from you soon. It’s all good.

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 it happens, and there are times when it doesn’t happen. At the moment it seems that I have fallen some into one of the cracks.

That would be my luck though, there would be one crack, I would be th one to find it and fall right into it. So iot goes. Press on regardless.

the only thing left to say 
is that I really need to keep doing what it is that I am doing
because I need to keep on doing it
if for no other reason
then to make myself happy

Hello all you caffeine junkies,

With the right amount of coffee, just about anything can get accomplished.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Yours In The Spirit Of The Bean,

Good Morning Everyone,

There are still things, even at this point in my life, that are still out of my control, one of them still being that I have to work for a living. It does not mean that I have to like it, but it is the way that it is.

It’s all good. So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

​It’s Just A Thought.

It’s just a thought, but I think that I just might not have all that much to say right now, because it has been a long day, and it is going to be a long week at work. I will still be here, doing what I am doing, simply because it gives me something to look forward to every night. What else is there? So it goes. Press on regardless.

sometimes,
even when all seems to be the best that it is going to be
there is always something
or someone
that comes along
and makes it all 
either better or worse
I am not sure where I am at today

Hello all you caffeine junkies,

Wether it is jazz, classical, or classical jazz, there were times, when it all sounded, just a little bit better, with a pot of coffee, a nice dessert, good friends, and good conversation. Sometimes it just doesn’t get any better then that.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Yours In The Spirit Of The Bean,

​One Thought, To Get All Of This Started.

It’s just a thought to get all of this started, that there will be days that are good, there will be days that are bad, and there will be days that just are. In the end, how we handle them, or do not handle them. Is simply a matter of where we are at, at any given moment.

Even with that, there are times when we need to live our own lives, within the realm of good taste, and good reason, regardless of what it is that some people want to think, or to believe that we should be doing, or not doing with our lives. That the truth, at least about oursleves, can be the most liberating thing that we can do, and it can almost be the most damning. So we must be careful of the which roads that we choose to travel, because there may not always be a way back. It’s just one thought. So it goes. Press on regardless.

Good Morning Everyone,

Well the first day back at anything, may or may not be the best of anything, but the only thing that I can say is getting there was the worst. It’s over now, so the only thing left to do is to just count the days until my next vacation week. It’s all good.

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 it just seems that the older that I get, the more that I take pleasure in the little things. And that the older that I get, the smaller the pleasures become. Well it is just a thought. So it goes. Press on regardless.

when one thing ends
there should always be something that should take its place
or you think that would be the case, 
but there are times when I feel that it really doesn’t matter
whether there is or there isn’t
sometimes I think that this is just about as good as it gets

​Trying to believe that the best is yet to come

trying to believe that the best is yet to come
and that all of this is little more then just a test
to let mow know whether or not I will be worthy of it
when the best finally gets here
in the end
the only thing that I seem to be doing
is waiting for something that may not happen
that may not arrive
or has already passed me by
and it was something that I simply missed totally 

​I am never really sure what to write 

I am never really sure as what I should be writing about
or whether or nit
if I do know what it is that I am trying to say
that it will all come out right
or that it will be something totally different in what it was that 
I thought that I was going to say
knowing
that the future that I seek
is always just out of reach
and that the world as I am seeing it
is not always what it was that I am thinking that it should be
or that it was
or that the whole idea of personal responsibility
integrity 
wishful thinking of just doing what needs to be done
I find myself going far and wide 
away from the whole thing that we thought that we were going to accomplish
in the end
does it really matter what happens
as long as we end up in a better place then the place that we are 
calling home

​Some things never change

knowing that there will be times in our lives
when we need to make some sort of a change
whether it be for the good or for the bad
there are going to be some things that never change
that people are still people
and that they are going to believe what it is that they want to believe
that they are going to be doing what it is that they want to do
regardless of how you may try to get them to see things your way
not that what you are saying
doing
or believing 
is necessarily the best way either
but when you feel that you are out in the world
all alone
knowing that it is solely up to you to get it all right
the best way that you know how
but there is still another way of knowing
believing
seeing
understanding
what other way is there left to understand
other then for the truth be given away
in the best way that you can know the truth 
it never gets any better
it never gets any worse
it is all the same
because there are some things that just never change

Sunday Morning Greetings,

Good Sunday morning. I pray that you all had a blessed Easter Sunday last week, and that you are all planning to spend the Lord’s Day, or at least part of the Lord’s day in His house, worshiping with His people. 

All is good in this my part of the world, because God is still in control. It’s all good.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

Good Morning Everyone,

Thank God!! I am now officially on vacation, and do not have to think about the Circus for a whole week. Though before I left work, I did do some shopping, in the hope that I will have enough supplies to where I do not have to venture out unnecessarily, or to at least do any shopping. So the only thing that I do know is, thank God for convenience stores.

The one thing that I am going to try and do si to just enjoy my time off as much as possible, because a week can go very quickly. Also, if I get accomplished half of the things that I want to get done, then it will be time well spent. In the end, it is all good.

I hope that all of you are well and that I will be hearing from all of 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 there are times when I wish that I could give all of this writing nonsense, and just except what the fates have to offer me, but just the idea of it is enough to make me sad, almost to the point of tears. Simply because this is one of the few things that I have in my life that I have been told that I am any good at, at all. 

So for better or worse, here I am, with coffee in my cup, and jazz on my radio, it doesn’t get much better then this, especially since there is no drama to be found.

​sometimes at night 

sometimes at night
when I cannot sleep
and that little bitch
known as the muse
is not cooperating 
and my bed is empty
I sip my coffee
I smoke another cigarette
and listen to the most glorious silence
that any man has ever heard
it’s enough to make me weep
but I do not
do you

sometimes
we take to long to act
and when we decide to act
it just might be to late
and the moment is years gone
as well as the passion that we thought that we had
and the only thing left to do
is to simply go through the motions
which can sometimes be enough

Good Morning Everyone,

There will come a time, I pray that it will be soon, that I will be able to look back on this part of my life and know that it was a test, only some sort of a test, and that I have made it through with some sort of a passing grade. Until then, all of this is simply going to have to do.

In actuality though, there are still some things, if not most things that are out of our hands, and that the only thing that any of us can do is to just go along with it all, and hope that when we have to, that we make the right decision at the right time. That we say the right thing at the right time, and do the right thing at the right time. What else is there?

In the meantime, the only thing that I am going to be able to do is to just keep on living my life as best as I know how to live my life, given that this is the only one that I have and that there is going to be no one who is going to be able to live it for me, or to be able to do all of the things that I need to be doing, the way that they need to be done. At least the way that they need to be done on my world.

There are times though, when the only thing that I know for sure is that there will come a time in my life when the only thing that I am going to be able to do is what I must do, and that talking about it all is no longer an option. It is going to be a case of put up or shut up. It’s all good, or at least that is what I am letting myself believe.

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

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 to write, even when I do not feel like writing, simply because, I know that if I do not, then tomorrow, if I choose to write, will never come, and the only thing that I can do is to force myself to get down a few words, in the hope that they will lead to something big, something important. 

Until then, this is going to have to do. It’s just a thought. So it goes. Press on regardless.

​Sunday, April 1, 2018 Easter Sunday

the only thing that I can do right now is to just keep on writing,
writing as fast as I can,
but the only thing that I know is that,
sometimes writing as fast as I can
is simply not fast enough
and that there is always going to be something that gets lost
