personal message

I am still here
a middle aged soul still on her journey
seeking self knowledge
and seeking God
and wisdoms pearls
I view life through shinning eyes
I dodge stones
hold no grudge
I refuse to frown for long
I am keeping faith
living in the moment
appreciating every good thing
that graces my way
I believe that I am

really nice


I am fifty one and still a work in progress.

Once upon a time I thought I knew all the answers but today the world is new and I am new and on a journey of rediscovery and self realization. Where once I had a rule for everything, today I live in the moment and everything (well, almost ) everything is subjective. I am a very family orientated woman, strong in my sense of right and wrong and my determination to be the an ethical, moral person. I believe in love and tolerance and being true to one's self. I am a woman separated from her spouse for so many years now that I consider the marriage to have happened to someone else.

Indeed I have my life divided into what I refer to as my many lives as I've lived radically different lives years at a time. As I mentioned, I am a work in progress and I believe in growing me. I have a complicated but fulfilling family life. I've given birth to three wonderful individuals and I've fostered and adopted in my heart five more who are just as wonderful. As it stands when asked I say I have five children because it is complicated. I am a grand mother (mamma) to twelve grand children and currently one daughter, her husband and their four children are living with me. Family connections aside I am free in spirit and without obligation to anyone but God and myself.

I am a very spiritual person but not religious (any more) and my spirituality expands me, it is the real air that I breathe. I find my middle years to be exciting and promising. I have this belief that there is much I have sacrificed of myself in the past, almost to the point of nearly losing a real sense of myself. Now that I have no dependent children I have reclaimed 'me.' I love reading and walking and thinking. I am politcally minded and I write. I enjoy reading novels, journalism, history, politics, world religions and more recently science as in evolution. I am now trying to be more responsible and knowlegable about my health and so I am reading about medicine and advances in what scientist now understand about the human mind. I also enjoy plays, adore music, dvd's with someone special, eating out, live concerts. I prefer small groups to large groups. I am very involved with my extended family. And I especially enjoy quality time with that someone special whenvever life graces me with such a person. I am a scorpio, and my personality type is INFP: that is introverted, intuitive, perceptive and feeling ... none judgemnental

A Long, Long way from Where I Used to Be

Posted

Here I am a long, long, way from where I used to be.
Only yesterday, or so it seems to me, I was so busy, raising children and working harder than a body should, now suddenly I have time for me.
Here I am alone with myself, unsure of everything, especially unsure of me.
But where I am is exactly where I want to me.
I am out here cautiously exploring me.
What I will find only God knows. I am wearing my emotions on my sleeve.... (continue reading)

The Two Sons I Never Mention

Posted

So easy for me to say that I have only one son when the truth is that I have three.

Easier not to mention, which I acknowledge as a sin of omission my other two.

I could lie and say by explanation that because

I never see the other two I forget them but the

truth is the other two are never forgotten by me.

I am the mother of three sons.

Expecting Theresa

Posted

You were growing inside of me
without my invitation
Your impending arrival was a surprise
but not a pleasant one
I was certainly not ready for you
I was not yet ready for myself
I had at nineteen (almost twenty)
wonderful things to look forward too
such as continuing my education
and single handedly saving our world
but I was not looking forward to you
And the question was what to do about you?continue reading)
