I was sitting alone in my living room listening to some classical music and winding down from the days events and out of no particular place came upon me these stray thoughts. Anyone who has visited me knows that I do not dabble in politics or religion but I do have thoughts and feelings as a human being as to what goes on around me- around all of us. I thought of all of the desperate people doing desperate things that perhaps they would not normally do. I thought of all this era of youth living confused and lost inside and doing undo-able things. I thought of all the people I pass on the street with no food or place to call home and I can find no understanding in this. I watch the news early each morning and I see pain, anguish, death, natural diasters, famine, and heartache in the eyes of so many. On my good feeling writing days I skip the news.
I thought of the people who have gone so far down that they have given up and let hope slip away from them. Hope is a good thing people, often times the only thing that keeps us going. Hope is a good thing, it will be your air when you think you can not breathe. I thought of all of the sinkholes around the country and wondered if the bottom is simply going to fall out from under us one hole at a time; sure seems that way. So many things seem to be coming apart one hole at a time and we can't keep doing patch work; I wonder sadly if it is all fixable anymore. Will we find our way back home inside? Oh, do not get me wrong for I still have high hopes for the people who will, if they just dig deep, pull through and make a happy ending. And I have high hopes for myself and future as tomorrow may open a new window to a better day. I thought so many things that my hands can hardly keep up with my mind. I suppose the big picture can just be so overwhelming in these times we are living in. I want to please ask all to take a calm moment alone and think of your good fortunes, no matter how small, so that you will be thankful for what you have when YOU ponder these stray thoughts...

The Voices...
written by Pamela(pam) Scholes
I have taken a personal hiatus on my blogs but am now ready to talk. I am a true Gemini and, like most of us, have the voices in our heads. I am not talking about hearing voices other than your own. We each have two sides within us that will often be in conflict with one another and wish to battle our decisions. The voice can some times tear you down and steal your inspiration- this was the cause of my hiatus. I share as much inspiration as I can but there will be times when the inspirer needs some extra inspiration- and I gather that from all of you.
The voice can also be comforting as we have to know how to tend to ourselves and let that voice lead us where we are meant to go. I have fought with my voice, argued with it, reasoned with it, and discussed some important issues with myself. We must always be able to reason with ourselves and spend more time in harmony. I have managed to get both ends to meet in agreement and this can be a difficult task. Look into the reflection in the mirror; look deep down inside and choose carefully but listen to the voices...
