BRING ME HOME

I love this song by Sade, “Bring me home”. It really speaks to me. I feel like she is singing to me. Basically she is saying that she has come to a place in her life where she has no other place to go and needs to return to a place, some place that is like home. She’s traveled and lived and done and is far removed from where she started. She’s suffered lost and now has to find a way to get back to a place that she used to be. What that looks like in her life is well beyond my knowledge, but I can solely speak for myself I’m lost in the big bowl of sauce. I particularly like the line in the song where she says that “the small step I need to take is like a mountain, stretched out like a lazy dog”. I really am a stone’s throw away from a great change in my life and its seems like such a small task but yet its momentous and overwhelming to make. I guess the question of the day is, how do you make that small step that’s going to send your life hurling in a new direction? I’m not quite sure but I guess I’ll be exploring the possibilities with Sade singing in the back ground cheering me on!

DISCOVERING THE WORLD AT HAND

Sometimes I just want to write to get things off of my mind. Sometimes I just want to write to express my thoughts and feelings on a particular matter. Sometimes I just want to write because if I don’t I know that there will be no other way to let the world know exactly what I feel. I sometimes want to say the things that I can’t say out loud to anyone else. This is my outlet my way to relieve years of pent up frustrations. My voice without penalty or judgment. So often we walk through life afraid to be who we really are because we know that ultimately people are judging our every word and movement. Sadly we cannot change this only build a thick enough skin to bare it or a strong enough constitution to not even care altogether. I’m hoping that at the end of this journey I will find a way to overcome some of the paralyzing issues that have come to play in my life and really discover myself.
