Out of the Darkness and into The Light
It has been a long time since I felt that a day in my life deserved to be frozen in time and chronicled in my journal of "indelible images that make me, "Me". When a normal day from the calendar becomes a monument...a place to visit and revisit.....learn it's lessons and draw on it's power. Suckling it's strength for life's mundane and ritual routines. Pouring out its sweet aroma each time your mind goes to taste it's delectable fruit.

When you know something is greater than yourself and greater than the sum of the parts of the equation. And, you're only able to stare at the surreal events bearing down on the fleeting moments of reality. To be left with the exhilaration of knowing you have tasted something great, beyond yourself, something that is to come. What you anticipate being transformable to your life path thus far. And all you can do is wrap you heart around your feelings, your wishes, your desires, your dreams of what may come.

What does unfold through ordinary events that make them extraordinary "anthems"? A day's potential to birth itself through ordinary flesh and become monumental is proved out over glancing time of days to come.

Earned potential cries through the fading mind's dim eyes. Broken spirits of beauty and connectedness dance through your mind freeing you of oppression and drawing out the hope which is hidden within you. Potential calling to you like the sweet mistress she is. Wading through the murky remembrances of the past to the present. Daring you to baptize yourself new, fresh, changed, and let the dead bury themselves.

Rebirth your mind, will, and emotions through the canal of new purpose and adventure. Locking away disdain and sneering glances. Exposing your bareness and not looking back. Embracing the challenges which lie ahead. Drawing your sword like a Knight in Mid-evil Earth.....a Battle that is Honorable and Worthy to die for. Fighting and not holding back. Going all out....this is the only path that leads to Victory.

Deviousness plays in the mind of those who host the dangerous "entertainment" of vacillation. The weak minded must have an escape route planned out as THEY prepare for battle.

The conqueror goes into battle ready for the worst and expecting the best.

In my darkest days of recent months, I would love to call myself a champion, a leader, trailblazing for others to follow my lead. To beat the odds that face you every day, afternoon, and evening. But, I can't, I have barely hung on....ranging from rage, grief, and self pity. I have simply held on for another day. And you can too. Your purpose is to create, and create you will. At the pinnacle of your life's greatest works, it will all be weighed out over that glance of the days to come, and will be proved as profit. Living another day to find hope and inspiration. To let the bright light of beauty rise within you to the surface and grab hold of destinies that lie ahead.

Cheers,
