Did You Fear It?

Did you see it?

Did you fear it?

Surely not the lady

She was 80!

It must have been

In her eyes

The fear replaced by 

forgiveness or peace.

It was

Our Lord's Arms holding 

The Lady in his arms

The comfort she found

Did you see it?

Did you fear?

It could be yours

If you had only known

She could have led you to it.

I pray you find it.

The Voices

This isn't an I hear voices post, but a voices post.  I can't explain what it is, but some peoples voices have the ability to bring me up or slam me down.  Anyone know what I mean?  Weird, I know.  Paisley, at three has a feel good voice.  She can brighten my day by talking even if she isn't talking to me.  Her voice makes me smile.  Jasmine's voice is a voice that hesitates, is thoughtful, and is keeping something back, more often than not a laugh.  Know what I mean.  They are genuine. They haven't learned to beguile or exploit, or manipulate.

This and That

This is a busy month, getting ready for Larkin's birthday; by that I mean, what to get her, she is turning into a beautiful young lady.  Fifth grade, but so grown up.  Getting ready for Thanksgiving, looking and waiting to see if we will get the apartment in NB, making our list and checking it twice for Christmas.  One other thing I did was start my Thankful posts on facebook.  What I realized doing that was that I am a think and physically write kind of person.  Not that I can't type and think, like now, but I think better if I write it down.

I am not going to have a computer or a TV in the apartment.  I am going to have paper and pens and lots and lots of books, and hold in your hands newspapers.  But only local newspapers.  The national news in print or on air have lost their honestness and creditability this year.  Maybe it has been happening for awhile and they just this year slipped past my level, but trust is no longer there.  News shouldn't be worried about ratings, but about the truth.
