little about a lot

Time flies, tis true! Days mix into nights and before one realizes, months have passed. Such is the case here. Totally unbelievable that so much time has elapsed since last blog. Apologies to all.


Work and school still consume each minute. Attempts of contact with friends made fleetingly. Best that can be done and an overal extended dose of love sent to you all!!!!!!


Peace,


Nita

sun rising through the mists (maybe)

Ok, for those of you who know me personally, the last year healthwise hasn't been the best. Those of you who don't know me personally, I worked for a company for 8 years as a supervisor for mentally challenged individuals. Loved the job and company...they were my extended family. Unfortunately, excessive (over 80 hrs. weekly and being on call) got to me physically. Prior to that job, I took full-time care of a parent until they passed for 7 years while raising my son. (believe it or not, I'm still young (ish), ok, they say 40 is the new 30...)


So when my body decided to give me time off, I wasn't ready for it; yet had no choice (talk about feeling a quick one way trip to hell). Now things, after this long year, have improved and I have started to look at re-entering my chosen field in some aspect. My heart was still with the company that treated me so well, ok the hours were extreme, but the higher ups really did treat me well.


Anyway, I left a message about my improved conditions..and...THEY WANT ME BACK! I have a few hurdles to somehow jump and looks like I'll be back with the WR family again and assisting those who need some help in society.


Most likely I'll be just a worker bee, but that's ok for now....I'll be back in the supervisory saddle in no time. Gives me time just to follow a normal schedule, get some things resorted that I lost and feel human again.


More positive poems will be posted soon.


Peace and love to you all,


Nita

Ok, was going to do the friend blogs and started making a list...too Damn many and I meet more everyday.


So not to leave anyone out or give the impression of sending more love to some than others, I deleted prior posts and decided to do a summerization because I love you all!


You're terrific, fantastic and add a little more to my life everyday!


Have to give a special shout out to ALL those from DTG and to LEE who is the head Gubette and keeps us in line. You ladies are fucking awesome and the banding together today shows it!!!!!!!!


All of you out there give so much, it is amazing the connection that can be formed through cyberspace.


Friends whom I've known since childhood, you helped me be the woman I am today, through things that most only read in books. You've giving me strength so when needed I could lead and provide the caregiving placed in my lap.All I can do tell you all how empty my life would be without you and continue to be there when you need me.


D., intellectual conversations at your house rocked. Loved R's input, we do share a birthday. R...HAPPY BELATED!!!!!!!!!! Let's get together soon, throw in a dvd or two, pop some popcorn.


Anyone that feels missed, sorry, BIG HUGS sent to you.


Kudos to new friends and those yet to meet.


Have a great weekend,


peace and love,

dance of souls


Dance of Souls


The depths of those eyes,


falling into them,


lost abandonment,


I surrender!


Those cursed,


glimmering,


gold, glistened eyes.


Silently you command,


boldy you direct,


subservently I submit.


Are you angel or devil,


my will is not my own,


my body yeilds,


shivering,


trembling,


succumbing to your wills.


Longing to run,


begging for your touch,


feeling the need to strike you,


kiss you....


Look away!


I love you,


I hate you,


I need you,


Damn you,


Take me!

since I cannot sleep, a poem

Under The Looking Glass


Looking about with tears

She sees him frown

Poor porcelain doll, colors faded

Little lines within her skin

 

She always felt special

Under his care

Placement under glass dome

Lights shining on her

 

He sees over time

She is not the work of art

He once believed

Sighing he lifts the glass

 

This was his favorite

Upon inspection

The little lines showed

The colors were uneven

 

Sighing heavily

He lifted her gently

"sorry old girl" he muttered

carefully carried her away

 

Crying inside she felt unworthy

watching as he opened the box

where other broken, useless things lay

inside he put her

 

Wanting to cry out

"she didn't belong here"

examining her faults,

fear built inside

 

Sobbing, realization hit her core

she was unworthy

she wasn't special

she was just like the useless junk

 

Boxtop closed,

darkness surrounded her,

pain felt as never before

terror filled her

 

Wasn't long her prison moved,

jostling tossed her around,

nothing to grab on to for safety

she couldn't see

 

The porcelain figurine stilled,

grinding noise was heard,

light began to emit

momentary hope

 

Then the last thing she saw

was the crusher of the garbage truck

Slowly, unholy manner

bringing her closer

 

She let one last cry escape

felt herself fall

she returned to the dust she came from

Flaws gone
