If I Were...
I found this on emmatree.blogspot.com
It looked like fun
I answered what came to my mind first
Come on give it a try
if i were a month i’d be October,I love the colors and crisp air,
if i were a day i’d be Friday, it's my free day,
if i were a time of day i’d be evening,
if i were a font i’d be papyrus,
if i were a sea animal i’d be a dolphin,
if i were a direction i’d be west,
if i were a piece of furniture i’d be a comphy bed,
if i were a liquid i’d be the water in a bubbling fountain,
if i were a gemstone i’d be a ruby,
if i were a tree i’d be a strong oak or a pretty river birch,
if i were a tool i’d be a screwdriver,
if i were a flower i’d be a hydrangea,
if i were an element of weather i’d be a gentle breeze,
if i were a musical instrument i’d be a guitar,
if i were a color i’d be dirty white,
if i were an emotion i’d be laughter,
if i were a fruit i’d be a grape,
if i were a sound i’d be a windchime,
if i were an element i’d be mercury,
if i were a car i’d be a LandRover ready for off roading,
if i were a food i’d be italian,
if i were a place i’d be a flower filled meadow at the base of a mountain,
if i were material i’d be cottage rose,
if i were a taste i’d be chocolate,
if i were a scent i’d be peony,
if i were a body part i’d be an eye,
if i were a song i’d be soothing,
if i were a bird i’d be a hawk,
if i were a gift i’d be something timeless,
if i were a city i’d be Charleston S.C.,
if i were a door i’d be a shabby white old door,
if i were a pair of shoes i’d be broken in birkenstocks,
if i were a poem i would be about nature.
c'mon, play along.
see what you find when you ask what you'd be.
and ignore any comments
saying you are so self-absorbed.
or say yes, i am,
welcome.
come on in.

Lost Soul
I have been here before, I know He always comes through. Actually I have always been blessed beyond what I have hoped for. But for now my human brain just can't take this waiting.
The fear (that I thought I had dealt with) won't let me go right now. I am afraid my husband will not get a job. That we are going to loose our house (this, we are pretty sure of) so I will loose my studio. Will I find a job? How do I look for one? What can I do? I have never filled out a resume. 27 years working for myself. How will this affect my daughter who is a junior in high school? On one hand I want to start a new life, in a different place. An adventure! I want to be used by God, to do what ever He wants us to do. I get my hopes up, get used to the idea if moving, but then my husband finds out he didn't get the job. A job I thought would be a dream job for him. Finally, his turn to have his dream. God wants us to have our hearts desires, right?
I know all the answers to these questions. I know God is faithful. I know things will turn out for the best.
But right now,
In this time
I'm afraid to hope.
I feel like this old shoe I found in my woods. A Lost Soul.
I know things will happen in His time and I should be expectantly waiting but for now I just need to be quiet and listen. Please pray my for peace of mind.
Thank you!
