Landslide...

Yesterday was a busy day for me, it felt like a Landslide hit me, all things crashing down, and loads of realizations hit me at once as well...

I am beginning to love my ritual of sitting here every morning, in the midst of the calmness in my home, fingers gracing this keyboard as all my thought unload upon this screen....it is my therapeutic way of releasing all anguishes, and just unloading in order to carry on for the rest of the day....

'on a pillow of blue bonnets, and a blanket made of stars...'
'i want to look at the horizon and not see a building standing tall...'

I love those verses from the song 'Cowboy Take Me Away' by the Dixie Chicks....

I think growing up in the country did me some good, it helped me respect God's beauty, his amazing nature, a roughing it girl I am not quite sure I voluntarily would ever be, but I would never hold my kids back from embracing the wonders the country can bring, I will go on camping trips with them, and I have and can enjoy the wilderness, but I like the city far better, but a canoe ride down a beautiful lake, or watching the sunset on am island cliff while Loons call I would love and those would be moments I would forever engrave in my mind, moments that took my breathe away.....

If you ask Jayson if I am a roughing it outdoors girl I am pretty sure he would tell you the same thing about me...

The City has alot to offer, so many awesome cultures joined together, different things to see, different events going on, the square downtown and the different street performers who visit, sometimes you can see a bit of God's naturalness (wilderness) in different nooks in the city....That is the awesome combination's I love and enjoy...

'i wanna touch the earth,
i wanna break it in my hands,
i wanna grow something wild and unruly...'

But in saying all this the above verse does describe me in alot of ways...

The Landslide that hit me yesterday was good for me....I am so thankful...
