EN ROUTE TO DAWN


HAVE YOU SEEN A SUNRISE LATELY

SLOWLY BRIGHTENING A BLACKENED SKY.

AND THE BALL OF FIRE THAT FOLLOWS

HANGING MIRACULOUSLY ON HIGH.?

I WATCHED THIS MAJOR EVENT THIS MORNING,

AWE INSPIRING IN ITS ABORNING

BUT MY HEART IS FILLED WITH SORROW

AT OUR NONCHALANT BEHAVIOR.

RELISH EACH MOMENT - SAVOR THE HOUR -

LIVE ALL YOUR DAYS IN AN IVORY TOWER.

SEEK NOT HAPPINESS IN FAR-AWAY PLACES-

HERE AND NOW, OUR FUTURE DISPLACES.

BEHOLD THE SUN IN ALL ITS GLORY,

EMBRACE THE EARTH APPRECIATE BEAUTY.

LOVE YOUR FELLOW MAN PROFOUNDLY.

THEN GOD WILL FOLLOW YOU DISCREETLY.


Hope you feel better soon.

Hey Purple Electric Pickle,
Nifty blog. I like your creativity (and I'm a writer so creativity is bread and butter). I'm a
newby blogger so, still learning and I'm kind of tech-illiterate so my blog is a little more blah right now.
I'm writing b/c I read about your troubles this past yr. Can totally empathize! In one 10month period my grandmother, my dog, and my dad died and my husband of a decade or so left me And that was BEFORE the really bad crap started (really, no joke).
Life can suck sometimes. Today lightning struck my house and smurfed my satellite TV, my phone and my security system (that last one is really important). Spent a little quality time with my cell phone to my ear on hold at DirecTV, Ma Bell, and security folks. Sure hope that whole notion of brain cancer from cell phones is bull cause I was on there so long my fillings are probably glowing.
At least my computer was off!
OK enough trying to cheer you up. I wanted to say that I was sick for about the last year also. Health IS the greatest gift (sorry for YELLING but there is no way for me to italicize or underline so all I have for emphasis is all caps). Focus on you, you are the backbone of your family. You are the glue that holds it all together. They all need you and you need to be needed (I just have a feeling about you). I'm sending blessings your way and hoping you and your family soon feel better.
Best wishes,
Gemini Jones
