I miss my friend.  I'm sad for the loss of that life. With the gift of my children and the passing of others, I didn't have the time or the energy to see him through his grief. I knew that was suppose to be his road and I stepped away from it all. I wasn't the only one who did and for whatever reason I could not bring myself to slap him back into reality.
Like a lot of other people I watched from a distance as his life went it's way and mine went the other. There were struggles and times when I knew my life would be different if we didn't change so much. The person I knew and the kid I remember wasn't the shell of a man I passed on the road.
Loving life is being able to take the good with the bad, he was given more bad then good and I hate to know that he walked that alone most of the time. My instict to draw him in and give him, or any other person time to heal and know that if nobody else cares, I do. I live this way, I give that energy because there will be a time when I will need that back.
I know I'm not here for myself, I know this world and my place in it will never be easily understood, but I do what I can to show the world compassion and show my children that being humble and sharing simple acts of kindness isn't above anyone.

Hierarchy of Needs

Here we go again, spring time is in the air and so is the excitement of trying to figure out how the summer will proceed. For the field of work that I now find myself it is a number of questions with the most pressing being: how to develop safe environments. There are so many factors but Maslow had some divine intervention to develop such a clear and concise theory. The coming week will be transforming and revealing for what we can accomplish or the coming quarter and year.

My 2020 Aspiration: Garth Brooks and Kelly Clarkson

One of the best days of my life in being able to support someone who has the capacity to help so many others. I had some amazing life lines I utilized and had the opportunity to support women showing up for other women in a way that we never have the time or opportunity to do as much as I would like to see...but for one day some beautiful and important relationships were made to help see someone through a transitional time in life that I still struggle with.  I am so grateful for the ability to find support and direction in what it is that I'm doing and what it is that I can do better not only for myself but for my family.

Spring is Here

It's spring, it' nice out, but not sure if I'm ready for the whole renovation of our cut little home to begin. The family needs a yard. I need a flower bed and a place to put the hammock, well it's imaginary right now, but I've wanted one and the Dad (my son's dad) mentioned it while plotting the trees that will be removed. I think I'll draft a layout and let you see the confusion that is our overgrown yard. Bonus: we have two amazing apple trees to fertilize this year, three amazing plum threes, two current bushes, and three locations of choke cherries. Yay for the overgrown yard!
