​Good Morning,
sometimes taking a break from all of this for whatever reason, it still seems to me on some level that it seems to be a waste of time, time that I cannot afford to be wasting. not that I am planning on going anywhere anytime soon, but my time becomes more and more of a precious commodity that I can not afford to be wasting. like I have said before, I can always make more money, but I cannot make more time. So it goes. Press on regardless.
Faithfully Yours,
Lee

day follows night
night follows day
in endless procession
good and bad
one follows the other
and at times
it is hard to know what to do.

​good morning,
I should have known better than to take a nap when I got home from work. well, the only thing that I can do right at the moment is to try and be a little productive, but it is not really there. yet. In the meantime, I pray that you are well and that I will be hearing from you soon. so it goes. press on regardless.
faithfully yours
Lee

lurching through our days
only to find out
that there are somethings 
not worth knowing
or trying to forget.

​Good morning,
I am not sure of the reasons why, but since the beginning of the year, I have not been able to get into any sort of a routine, and I am not liking it at all. I am not sure what to do about it either, other than to take it just one day at a time, just like everyone else, as if there were a second choice.
so it goes. Press on regardless.
Faithfully Yours,
Lee

​below is a copy of a prayer that I wrote and sent to my prayer chain. feel free to do the same or gift it.

Dear Church Family,
the events of the past few days down in Washington have left me with a heavy heart about the future of our country. yet this, not the time to be feeling sad, but to remember that this is still a Christian nation, regardless of what some people might be trying to tell us. we need to be praying for revival now more than ever.

Dear Heavenly Father,
we come before you in Christ's name. we pray that the transition of power will be as smooth and uneventful as these things can be, we pray for the current leadership. grant them wisdom and understanding. we pray for the new administration as they get ready to assume power. grant them your wisdom and understanding,  most of all, may all of this be used by you to bring about a revival the likes of which the world has never seen before and my that very same spirit go forth into all of the earth making disciples of all that will hear it. I pray all of this in Christ's name. Amen.

if so moved, you may forward who will pray this as well. so it goes. press on regardless.
Yours in Christ,
Lee

not the best thing that I have ever written but it will do. I hope that you are well and that I will be hearing from you soon. so, it goes. press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,
Lee

the days come
as they always do
the days go
as they always will
leaving us wondering
where it all went to

​Good morning,
The days come and go as they always do. Sometimes fast, sometimes slow, but always the same, one after the other, until we are left wondering where all the time has gone. not knowing what else to do, but to try and keep track of them as they go by., but even that doesn't always seem to be enough. Attempting to mark my days with words and music. Quiet, uneventful, willing to believe in just about anything, but the facts of my life. we all have facts of our lives that we may not always want to look at, but they are there, whether we choose to see them or not. 
Am I being cryptic, I don't think so because we all have that place on the inside of our lives, where the rule us lives. When we have those quiet moments when we are alone or at night when we cannot sleep. when life gets too close or seems to be a million miles away. when the only thing that we can do is to just keep on moving and hope that we can outrun it all. That works only for so long and we still end up facing ourselves.
Do it goes. Press on regardless.
Faithfully Yours,
Lee

​good morning,
I do what I do simply because I can. I do what I do simply because someone has to. in the end, we all need to be doing something. So it goes. press on regardless.
faithfully yours,

​Good Morning,
if given the chance, how many of us would actually live our lives over again, even with the things that we know now about life. Who is to say that we would not make the same mistakes, or worse. Your thoughts and opinions are always welcome. So it goes. Press on regardless.
Faithfully yours,
Lee

I like to believe
that I will get more out of life
then just a headache.

​good morning,
sometimes, even under the best of circumstances, it is often difficult to find something worthwhile to write about, but the best that I can do right now is to just soldier on as best as I can in the hope that one of these days there will be something good that will come from all of this. if for no other reason I will be able to say that I set some sort of a record for spending the most personal emails. I wonder what the record is. I think that I might be able to beat that record, with your help. It is all good. So it goes. Press on regardless.
Faithfully Yours,
Lee

The search for meaning
the search for truth
the search for facts
it all never seems to end,
it just takes a form 
that we are more familiar with
even though we may not always understand it.

​Good Morning,
Is all of this good, meaning the election, well I guess that it is, but it just seems to me that the only thing that I can hope for is that we will become better people and a better nation for all of this, but there is part of me that is thinking that we may be entering an area that the founding fathers could not have foreseen, even though there is no clear cut winner, and even that seems to be a case of who you are willing to and what you are willing to believe. I can only encourage you all to pray for each other and pray for our nation, we need it now more than ever. So it goes. Press on regardless.
Faithfully Yours.

If we live long enough
we will have found 
that there were too many tears
that we laughed at all of the wrong jokes
spoke 
when being silent would have been the best thing to do
remained silent
when we should have shouted from the rooftops
and one hundred and one other things
that we should have done
or not done
we can either live with regret
or get on with the rest of our lives.
it is still good
no matter what else happens.

​Good Morning,
Sometimes, all it takes is a good cup of coffee and a strong prayer to go off and face the day. Walk with God, He walks with you.
So it goes. Press on regardless.
Faithfully Yours,
Lee

when I was young,
I believed everything,
loved everyone,
and life was good

Now that I am older
I am not so sure anymore.
but those that love,
will still love
but sometimes
it is not always good.

​Good Morning,
Now that the debates are over, or as these will become known as the shouting matches, the only thing left is the election. No matter how it all plays out, it seems that there will be no one that will end up liking the way that it all turned out. What else is there left to do but deal with the beast? So it goes. Press on regardless.
 Faithfully Yours,
Lee

​INSTINCT.
Looking for something better,
something higher then what I am doing,
along with all of the things that I am feeling.
That all of this is little more than just a bad dream.
That I really do not exist.
I am finding very little in this life that is worth the effort.
Growing older by the minute.
Feeling the hunger of passion.
It all becomes much too real.
Money,
love,
possessions and all of the rest
it all becomes much too real
until we realize that there are times,
when we simply have to let it all go
we can own it all
until it gets ready to consume us
the last full measure of time
keeping myself moving
in order to forget the meaning of this thing called life
but do we know the power of the passing of time.

​Good Morning,
I have found myself feeling, amongst other things, very nostalgic, which can be a good thing and it can also be a bad thing, it is all a question of what you are remembering, or what it is that you are trying to forget. So it goes. Press on regardless.
Faithfully Yours,
Lee

Hope.
Love.
Eternity. 
Wishing that life would play by my rules,
    but I don't think that it works that way.

I really should be getting out more,
    but there is always one more thing to try and say.

Even then,
    I still manage to screw it up.

Love.
Hope.
Eternity.

​Good Morning,
Just one of those days when I just don't feel like writing, but I have to get something done, or it just won't feel right if I don't, so here I am again, doing what it is that I am doing in the hope that it will all be good. I hope that you are well. So it goes. Press on regardless.
Faithfully Yours,
Lee
