Stagnant Period

Writing is not as easy as we all think. Or rather the inspiration we need to write doesn't come by easily.

Before I started blogging I was always telling my friends they need to blog more. Today, I understand exactly why their blogs have stagnant periods.

With a demanding job, a drama filled life and a thousand other things to do, where do we find the time? Oh sure I find the time every now and again but it's then that I have no inspiration.

Sleep. The one thing I don't seem to get enough of no matter what I try.

The point of this? There's none. I'm just rambling, pretending that I have something to say.

I missed you too

My Dearest Raine,

How your letter warms my heart. And sweetheart I know you have a big loving heart that beats a thousand beats. It is merely bleeding a little but that will soon heal. I will not let you bleed out!

Thank you for your sympathy too. Rest assured that I have thought about you every minute of the two days that we were apart. I guess I need to go away more to know how appreciated I am.

And darling speak not of death for it is not your time. You are young, you will get through this heartache. Even if you don't you've got me always.

As for the sterling idea, it is capital! (LOL, I feel a little old english).Well my darling now that I am back I want no talk of death and dying. What will be will be but for now you are writing a masterpiece and I want first read.

Yours always,

Rose V

For Rose V

Rose V:

You are as close to my heart (if I've still got one) as any of the people I'd shed tears for.

This comforting hell hole that I spend most of my days in is transforming itself. I'm not sure what it's becoming but I know it's time for me to go. Move on. It scares me when I think of how much time I've let go by.

I share your pain on the passing of your grandpa; reminds me of when I lost mine.

Death. I've been thinking about it a lot lately.

Why can't I still be 3? Back then I believed we lived forever and that dead people are just away on an extended vacation in heaven.

So I'm working on this great project of mine. I have to tell you all about it soon. I'll tell you one thing though, research is a pain in the ass.

The Narrow Way

Carry on I heard you say.
Carry on your rugged and rough way.
Carry on and try never to go astray
For the reward of him who stays is great.
Carry on my child,
Carry on the narrow way!

It is not the time to break down,
I heard you say.
Fight the demons always
They will eventually go away.
Break down now?
No never!
The hills are visible in the distance far away
Keep on striving and you will get there.
It is not the time to break down
Not when you are so near.

Do not forget I heard you say.
That a reward is at the end
For those who stay on the narrow way.
Do not forget the peace that awaits you there
Nor the joys that you will share.
In the paradise that draws near,
Your blessings will be great.

 Dedicated to the man who let me call him Grandpa for most of my life. He lived an admirable life and now I am sure that he is in paradise. May his soul find eternal peace. Love always, Rose V
