Metamorphose

Just wanted to share some quotes that are resonating in my heart today.


"How does one become a butterfly? She asked pensively. You must want to fly so much that you are willing to give up being a caterpillar."
-Trina Paulus


"If you ever get a second chance in life for something, you've got to go all the way."
-Lance Armstrong


"You can have anything in life you desire if you are willing to sacrifice everything else for it."
-Unknown


"Nothing great is ever achieved without much enduring"
-Unknown

The Storm

The storm has passed,
yet I can still feel its presence.
I can see the destruction everywhere.
I feel it with every movement
and can smell it with each breath.

How does one recover from such a disastrous storm?
How does one put back the pieces and continue on with life?

The sun is shining again,
yet it does not look as brilliant as it once had.
The colors in the sky are beautiful,
however they seem dim and faded in my heart
I want to feel the beauty.

A piece of me feels changed forever.
broken
hurt
saddened
by all this destruction.

Will things get better?
Will things continue on like I planned them in my heart?

I want to feel the warmth of the sun on my skin.
I want to bask in the beauty of what is above me.

For now though, this seems impossible.
Will that change?
Will new life grow?
Only time can tell,
as the destruction from the storm forms new opportunity's to grow.

Nothing else to say but...

Feeling so miserable (about everything)!

spring is in the air

I can feel spring in the air. It makes me so happy. I cannot wait for the warm weather. To be able to spend my days with the sun on my face, playing tennis, bicycle riding, walking through the mountains, going to the beach, and swimming in the pool in my apartment complex. !hooray!

I wanted to share this picture with you because it looks like a mountain in the background, however it is really just the clouds. It was taken in Key West Florida. What an amazing place. I hope to go back their soon one day. The most beautiful sunsets and the most wonderful weather. For all of you whom have been their, take the trip. I am sure you will enjoy it.
