We often become aware,
When we least expect
Some new insight
That in all of this
The only thing that
really seems to matter
is the way that we get
through it all
but who is there to notice?
If you are doing it right
No one knows your
Doing it

​Good morning,
It is all good, or as good as it is going to get. I am hoping that one of these days I will be able to get through my days and my nights doing all of the things that a working writer does, and still being able to earn money doing it all.
I hope that one day it will all come true and that in the end, it will all be just the way that I had it all planned. Of course, that may not in actuality be the case, but I really would like to be able to find out. There are times when all of this is the only thing that really matters to me.
Trying to string words together in the hope that something good will come from it all. I can already string words together, but I do not know how well I am doing it so the one thing that I can do is just make the best of the situation that I am in right now.

it all just 
comes

the good

anything

until
the only thing 
left
is wishful

The mask of time
Simple pleasures
A life well lived
The world knows
Something called
The truth
And something
Else that we are
All looking for

Good morning,
Well here I am again, still trying to do all the things that I'm trying to do with all this time that I have on this vacation week of mine. All I can say right now is that the more that things change the more that they stay the same, and that one day this week I'm going to have to try and get out and do something. Even if it means paying a visit to one of the local coffee shops flirting with the baristas. Of course, that's always easier said than done, at least as for is getting out. I mean. One of the things that I wanted to get accomplished this week was to try and be a little more robust with my writing this week, and so far, it seems I'm doing okay with it, but it's early yet. A lot can happen between now and Saturday are actually Sunday when I go back to work.
I am using some dictation software, which is definitely helping my cause, as some of you already know, and it's great when it does what it's designed to do, but there are times when I think that it has a mind of its own and is putting in what it wants to put in and not necessarily what you're saying. But it's one of those programs that the more you use it the more you get comfortable using it and the more accurate it becomes, and more accustomed it gets to your voice and your speech patterns. So is getting more and more accurate the more that I use it. So the circumstances that I find myself in at the moment, this will probably be the most. I will use this in any given time since I've had it, so hopefully, the accuracy will improve to the point, well I will have to do less and less, proofreading. So, with that in mind, I just keep on talking and watch through the miracle of modern technology my words appearing on the screen of my laptop.
I do hope that in the end, this will help with my writing, in that it will give me a more distinct voice, pardon the pun. So it's just a question of being able to do all of this full time, which is something else altogether. I do so look forward to the day when I will be able to do this full-time and I will be enjoying every minute of it. But the one minor detail that I need to take into consideration and there is the issue of money. That stuff we work so hard to obtain, yet so quickly slip through our fingers. I know that it does with me. So I do the best that I can do with the time and the tools that I have in order to get myself heard. Even now there are still so much that I have left to say but time now, is also a friend and enemy. It's a friend in that I have it, but enemy, and that it will run out much too quickly, not that I'm planning on going anywhere anytime soon but there are things that are simply out of our control.
So I know they will come a time, I don't know how, but I'm convinced that one day soon I will be able to devote myself full time to call my real work, and now what I do, simply for money. Understanding that we all need to work, because we don't work, you don't eat. The old Protestant work ethic. Of course, there are those who through no fault of their own are unable to work or hold what is given to mean gainful employment. And those people. Those individuals should be helped along. The problem that I have is with people who through long term drug or alcohol abuse, and suddenly attempt to get into the system and be supported by the government. Now the best of my knowledge no one held a gun to these people's heads and told him to abuse drugs or alcohol. So where do you draw the line? Maybe I'm being too hard or critical, but there are people that I know who are perfectly able to work, but somehow have managed to get into the system, and our branding whatever they can get both hands, and the government is gladly giving it.
Then you have those who have legitimate disabilities who have to wait sometimes years to get what they're entitled to because it's a legitimate disability. Whether of being too critical to cynical are simply being a realist, that's the way I'm seeing it right. At the moment and to you to figure out for yourself.
Sorry didn't mean to preach or to go down that road, but there are just times when you just have to spout and this was the point in time. Right chose to start spouting. It's all good

So it goes. Press on regardless.


Faithfully Yours,

Lee

there are times
when I find myself 
wishing that there
would be something
good that will come
out of all of this
babbling that I am
doing
that the world will
stand up and take
notice of all of the
things that I have
to say
and that it will all
be good 
in the meantime
this is going to 
have to do

good morning,

just a few words to keep the streak going. all that I am hoping for right now will be that I can get through the next three days without any drama. of course with the way that my life is, that is asking an awful lot. there always seems to be unwanted drama. as a matter of fact, I can live without the dram and just be content with leading a very quiet life.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

in the end
it would be fair to say
that it is not how we start
but how we finish.

the way that we look at life
is often determined
by what it is that we have been 
through
up to any given point in time
wishing that things would turn out
just the way that I had them planned
but they seldom ever do

good morning everyone,

the days keep going by much more quickly than I would like, but at the moment there is nothing that I can do about it all other than try and keep track of what is going on in my little corner of the world, but there are times when I wonder whether or not it is all worth the effort that I am putting into trying to keep track of it all. well, there are worse things that I could be doing so I might as well keep up with what it is that I am doing.
of course, keeping up with all of this and whether or not it is being read is something altogether different. I do hope that is the case.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee
