I AM GOING TO RANT A LITTLE AGAIN. I HAVE SUCH STRANGE THOUGHTS AND WHEN I TRY TO PUT THEM ON PAPER THEY DON'T REALLY COME OUT RIGHT. YOU KNOW HOW YOU LIVE IN THE WORLD; THE GREAT BIG LARGE WORLD? AND HOW YOU LIVE IN YOUR MORE INTIMATE WORLD OF FAMILY,FRIENDS,AND AQUAINTANCES? WELL WHAT IF THERE IS AN EVEN SMALLER WORLD WHICH YOU EXIST WITHIN; YOUR OWN PRIVATE UNIVERSE THAT WRAPS ITSELF AROUND YOU INVISIBLE TO ALL. A WORLD THAT EXIST AS YOU EXIST; A WORLD WHICH IS ULTIMATELY YOU. WHAT IF YOU CAN COEXIST IN THE WORLDS OF OTHERS WITH OUT YOUR OWN WORLD ALWAYS COMING TO THE FOREFRONT SO FOR A LONG TIME YOU WERE NOT EVEN AWARE OF THIS PRIVATE WORLD THAT IS YOU? WHAT IF YOU SUDDENLY REALIZE THAT THE PRIVATE WORLD OF YOURSELF IS A VERY DARK PLACE ; A PLACE THAT WANTS YOU TO STAY THERE AND THERE ONLY. WHAT IF YOU BECOME AWARE THAT THIS DARKNESS COULD POTENTIALLY BE HARMFUL TO THE ONES YOU LOVE? WHAT DO YOU DO? WHAT DO YOU DO?Written by jmdragonwolf Permalink Blog about this entry Add to del.icio.us digg this

computer addiction
I SIT HERE PLAYING ON THIS THING THOUGH I HAVE GONE LONG PAST BOREDOM. I DON'T LEAVE I THINK BECAUSE THERE IS A FEELING THAT I MIGHT MISS SOMETHING; WHAT I COULDN'T TELL YOU. SOMEWHERE THERE HAS BEEN EMBEDDED IN MY MIND THAT THERE IS AN AMAZING THING ON HERE IF I CAN JUST FIND IT. WHAT THE AMAZING THING IS I DO NOT KNOW BUT THERE IS THAT FEELING THAT ELUSIVE FEELING. SO I SEARCH , I LOOK, I PLAY , I INTERACT IN WAYS THAT I AM NOT FAMILIAR WITH ALWAYS LOOKING FOR THAT SOMETHING; THAT SOMETHING THAT I CANNOT IDENTIFY. I LOSE MYSELF AND BECOME CONFUSED AND AFRAID. SOMETIMES I BECOME AFRAID ENOUGH TO LEAVE AND THAT IS JUST WHAT I AM GOING TO DO NOW. HONESTLY I AM GOING , REALLY, HONESTLY, OH HECK.Written by jmdragonwolf Permalink Blog about this entry Add to del.icio.us digg this

11:35:12 AM EST Edit Entry Delete Entry THE OTHER DAY I CAME UP WITH THIS WEIRD VISUAL OF HOW I FEEL ABOUT MY LIFE .

 I VISUALIZED MYSELF AS A MOUSE IN MAZE TRYING TO GET TO THE CHEESE .

 I JUST KEEPING GOING IN NEW DIRECTIONS ALL OF THE TIME SURE I AM ON THE RIGHT TRACK TO FIND THAT DARN CHEESE.

 BUT ALL I DO IS COME TO DEAD ENDS ALL OF THE TIME.

 WHAT I DON'T REALIZE IS THAT THERE IS NO SOLUTION TO THE MAZE AND I AM ON A COURSE TO NOWHERE.

 THEN I REVISED THE VISUAL TO A CONCEPT WHERE THE CHEESE I WAS AFTER WAS CONSIDERED THE BEST CHEESE OF ALL ,

THE ULTIMATE CHEESE YOU COULD SAY.

 THE ODD THING IS THAT AS I TRAVEL THROUGH THE MAZE THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I COME ACROSS PERFECTLY GOOD CHEESES AND DON'T EVEN GIVE THEM A CHANCE BECAUSE OF THE VISION OF THE ULTIMATE CHEESE FILLS MY MIND LEAVING NO ROOM FOR ANYTHING ELSE.

 I TRAVEL THROUGH THIS MAZE WITH NO SOLUTION LOOKING FOR AN IDEAL THAT IS PROBABLY NO BETTER THAN THE REALITY I AM CAPABLE OF REACHING.

 BUT I CAN'T SEEM TO STOP.

 THUS I SLOWLY WITHER AND DIE RATHER THAN GIVE UP ON THE IDEAL.

 ODD ISN'T IT?

family
FAMILY IS A WONDERFUL THING. YET THEY ARE THE DIRECT REASON FOR MOST OF OUR WORRIES IN LIFE. THE BALANCE BETWEEN THE JOY THAT FAMILY BRINGS AND THE STRESS THEY CAUSE IS VERY DELICATE INDEED. ONE WONDERS IF KNOWLEDGE WAS HAD BEFORE THE BEGETTING OF CHILDREN WOULD SAID CHILDREN THEN EXIST. SUCH KNOWLEDGE IS BETTER UNAVAILABLE OR MAYBE FAMILIES WOULD NOT BE CREATED. I SUPPOSED WE SHOULD CONCENTRATE ON THE JOY OF FAMILY NOT ON THE WORRIES THAT FAMILY BRINGS. STILL WORRIES SEEM TO BE STRONGER THAN JOY SOMETIMES.Written by jmdragonwolf Permalink Blog about this entry Add to del.icio.us digg this

one month since i found out craig was dead
today has been an odd sort of dayi had to go to the house of my dead husband and take care of things it always makes me confusedafter i left there i went shopping and spent too much money i guess i was over compensating for my sense of grief and confusionit helped a little like it always does and then i kinda of regret itdoesnt it always seem like you are on the ride at the playgroundthe little merrygoround thing

what can i say said the monkey to the mouse

 how can so many thoughts still live in this house

the mouse replied with a voice so sad

because the children have lost their dad

he went away on a day of snow

he went away and they didnt know

the house holds his dreams and his life

the house held all but not his wife

his wife she ran far from the house and his thoughts

she ran and ran and that hurt him a lot

the children they tried to fill up the space

but the truth she saw in his eyes and his face

the house someday i'm sure will be still

but her mind i'm sure it never will

the guilt that she feels will color her life

will always give a bit of strife

this tradeoff she is willing to take

if only for the children's sake

God keep the man and give him rest

may God do what he thinks is best

3 weeks since my husband died
can't believe its been 3 weeks since he left. seems like life has gone into fast forward and slow-motion at the same time. my mind spins into overdrive then slows into a thickening fog. i'm sure it will even out eventually. just feels like life will never be the same. which of course is true. how does a life end so abruptly. makes me wonder what sense life is anyway. just one of those things we will never understand i guess. shouldn't even be writing about it. just another way to dwell. seems like i need to pick at it like a scab. wish i could stop. oh well.Written by jmdragonwolf Permalink Blog about this entry Add to del.icio.us digg this

A Blue jay screams as he wings thru the air

Letting us know that springtime is near

He flies the skys with knowledge of old

Never seeming to even mind the cold

He knows that winter will very soon be gone

That spring will quickly and surely come along

woke up this morning with my head upside down

made the world look weird all the way around

i sit here wondering how can this be so

with my head upside down where can i go

        WORDS ON PAPER OR ON A BOARD

        RELEASING THOUGHTS WE'D LIKE TO HOARD

        THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS PUT DOWN IN TEXT

        WHATEVER WILL THEY MAKE US DO NEXT

        THINGS WE'VE MANAGED TO KEEP INSIDE

        THINGS WE'VE ALWAYS BEEN ABLE TO HIDE

        OUT THERE FOR THE WHOLE WORLD TO SEE

         IN A WAY IT WILL SET US FREE

        FOR WHEN FEELINGS AND THOUGHTS ARE KEPT AT BAY

        THEY SEEM TO CONTROL US IN SOME HORRIBLE WAY

        LET THEM LOOSE, LET THEM FLOW 

        NOW THOSE FEELINGS HAVE A PLACE TO GO

        A PLACE THAT WILL USE THEM IN A DIFFERENT WAY

        A PLACE WHERE THEY WILL LIVE ON COME WHAT MAY

SO WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN THE MONSTER CALLED BOREDOM HITS YOU. IT IS SUCH A REAL THING THAT EXISTS EVEN WHEN YOU ARE SURROUNDED BY THINGS TO DO. AND WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOUR BRAIN BLAMES THE FEELINGS THAT THIS MONSTER BRINGS ON THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU. IT ISN'T THEIR FAULT AFTER ALL NO ONE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR HAPPINESS EXCEPT YOURSELF. AT LEAST THAT IS WHAT I HAVE BEEN TOLD AND WHAT I HAVE READ. STILL IF WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR OWN HAPPINESS AND ALSO HAVE A STRANGE FEELING THAT WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE HAPPINESS OF OTHERS EVEN THOUGH THAT FEELING SHOULDN'T EXIST SINCE THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR OWN HAPPINESS ISN'T THERE A HORRIBLE SENSE OF CONFLICT. AND ISN'T THAT SENSE OF CONFLICT A WALL THAT IS VERY HARD TO GET PAST TO FIGHT THE BOREDOM MONSTER AND ALLOW YOURSELF TO MAKE YOURSELF HAPPY. WOW THIS IS REALLY RAMBLING AND NOT MAKING ANY SENSE. IT IS JUST A RESIDUE OF AN ATTACK BY THE BOREDOM MONSTER.

JUST A NOTE TO SHOW I'M STILL HERE

SO I GUESS A LOT OF TIME HAS GONE BY SINCE I LAST ADDED ANYTHING TO THIS BLOG SITE. I WAS INFORMED OF THIS BY A GOOD FRIEND WHO WENT OUT OF HER WAY TO CHECK MY BLOG OUT. ALL I CAN SAY IS THAT LIFE HAS GOTTEN IN THE WAY OF MY THOUGHTS. OR MAYBE MY THOUGHTS ON LIFE ARE NOT NECESSARILY SOMETHING THAT I WANT TO PUT IN PRINT AT THIS MOMENT. HAVE YOU EVER FELT THAT WRITING SOMETHING DOWN MAKES IT MORE REAL OR GIVES IT MORE POWER. I BELIEVE WE ALL FEEL THIS WAY. IT IS WHY WE MAKE LISTS AND WHY WE CREATE BUMPER STICKERS OR GRAPHIC TEES. BECAUSE WORDS HAVE SUCH POWER AND WHEN IN PRINT THEY SEEM TO BE EVEN MORE POWERFUL. AS I WAS STATING MY THOUGHTS ON LIFE RIGHT AT THIS TIME ARE NOT VERY PLEASANT AND I REALLY DON'T WANT TO GIVE THEM MORE POWER BY SEEING THEM IN PRINT. I'M SURE I WILL BE BACK SOON POURING OUT MY HEART OR JUST EXPRESSING SOME STRANGE THOUGHT THAT LEAPT INTO MY MIND OUT OF THE GREAT VOID OF THE WORLD. UNTIL THEN MAYBE SOMEONE COULD SHARE THEIR WORDS WITH ME. HOPE THE FALL IS GREAT FOR ONE AND ALL.

MY OWN COMPUTER ADDICTION

LORD BUT I'VE GONE AND DONE IT AGAIN. SPENT THE BETTER PART OF THE DAY ON THIS DANGED COMPUTER. HERE I HAVE A DAY OFF AND YES THERE ARE PLENTY OF THINGS I NEED TO GET DONE AND THINGS I'D LIKE TO DO. YET THE FIRST THING I DO WHEN I WAKE UP IS GET ON THIS EVIL THING. I KNOW IT'S NOT EVIL BUT ONCE I LAY MY HANDS ON THE KEYBOARD I SEEM TO BE DONE FOR. THERE IS ALWAYS SOME NEW SITE TO BECOME PART OF. SOME NEW WINDOW (AND NOW I KNOW WHY THEY CALL IT WINDOWS) TO PEER THROUGH. IT'S LIKE YOUR LIFE IS DISSATISFYING SO YOU MUST LOOK AND LOOK FOR SOMETHING BETTER. ITS THE WHOLE ALICE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS THING. YOU FEEL DIFFERENT HERE ANOTHER VERSION OF YOURSELF. AS YOU BROWSE AND CLICK AND TYPE YOUR MIND IS TELLING YOU THAT TIME IS AWASTING BUT YOU DON'T LISTEN YOU SWAT IT AWAY LIKE A BUG. JUST ONE MORE PAGE, JUST ONE MORE PICTURE, LET'S SEE WHAT SO AND SO IS DOING. GEEZ IS THAT REALLY TRUE ,NOW LET'S CHECK OUT THIS LINK, OMG WHERE HAS THE TIME GONE. WELL THIS LITTLE CHICKY HAS TO STOP FOR AWHILE OR SHE WILL EXPLODE.

NETWORKING SITES THAT SEEM LIKE INFORMATION FISHERS

I JOINED A NETWORKING SITE CALLED EONS AND NOW I'M NOT SO SURE ABOUT IT. IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE A SITE FOR PEOPLE IN MY AGE GROUP AND I WILL BE HONEST AND SAY I HAVEN'T EXPLORED IT THAT MUCH. STILL THE SMALL AMOUNTS OF STUFF THAT I HAVE EXPLORED THERE SEEM LIKE DEVICES TO FISH FOR INFORMATION. I JUST DID A QUESTION AND ANSWER PART OF THE PROFILE AND THE QUESTIONS DEFINITELY SMACKED OF INFORMATION SEEKING. OH WELL I GUESS THEY HAVE SPONSORS FOR THEIR SITE AND THIS IS HOW IT'S PAID FOR. NOT SURE THE SITE IS RIGHT FOR ME BECAUSE THE PEOPLE ON IT ARE NOT REALLY IN MY BRACKET OF INTERESTS. WE SHALL SEE.

WISHES

Don't we all wish we had a dragon for a friend? Strong and faithful and wise. Someone to tell our woes to whose wisdom would help us find the way in the world. A friend who is not of the mundane world. A friend beyond comprehension to the average world we live in. Don't we all wish we had a dragon for a friend.

FEELING SMALL IN THIS MASSIVE WORLD OF INFORMATION ON THE WORLDWIDE WEB

I HAVE BEEN SITTING HERE CHECKING OUT VARIOUS BLOGS ON THIS SITE. THIS HAS CONTRIBUTED GREATLY TO MY SENSE OF SMALLNESS THAT I GET WHEN I SEARCH THE WEB. I CAN FEEL SMALL IN A GATHERING OF A FEW PEOPLE; IMAGINE HOW I FEEL WHEN I REALIZE THE MAGNITUDE OF PEOPLE ON THE WEB. IT IS AMAZING! IN MY LIFE THINGS HAVE CHANGED SO GREATLY THAT I FEEL OVERWHELMED SOMETIMES. WHEN I WAS YOUNG AND THE WORLD I LIVED IN WAS A SMALL COMPACT PLACE THINGS SEEMED SO SIMPLE. OF COURSE I REALIZED THAT THERE WERE OTHER THINGS GOING ON OUTSIDE MY TINY UNIVERSE BUT I DID NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THEM SO THEY DID NOT AFFECT ME AS MUCH. AS I GOT OLDER AND LIFE TOOK ME AWAY FROM MY SMALL WORLD OF EXISTENCE; I BEGAN TO REALIZE THAT THERE WAS A LOT TO SEE, FEEL, AND THINK ABOUT. MY CHOICES BECAME ALMOST UNMANAGEABLE. SO MUCH STUFF, SO MUCH INFORMATION NOW; FOCUS HAS BECOME DIFFICULT. HOW DOES A PERSON FEEL WORTH IN THIS WORLD IF FOR EVERY TALENT THEY THINK THEY HAVE THERE IS SO MUCH MORE OUT THERE MAKING IT LOOK LIKE NOTHING. I REALIZE THAT ALL EFFORTS IN LIFE COUNT BUT THE HARDEST THING TO DO IS TO CONVINCE ONES BRAIN OF THAT FACT. THE PRAISE AND TRIBUTE I WILL GIVE TO THE SMALLEST EFFORT BY ANY PERSON IS SOMETHING I FAIL TO GIVE MYSELF. MAYBE ALL PEOPLE FEEL THIS WAY AND IF THIS IS SO I HOPE MY SMALL WORDS OF PRAISE AND ENCOURAGEMENT I GIVE ANY ONE OF MY FELLOW MEN GIVES A GLIMMER OF MEANING TO THEIR ACCOMPLISHMENTS. I WILL CONTINUE TO TRY TO NOTICE THINGS PEOPLE DO AND SHOW THEM I NOTICE. MAYBE THIS IS THE PURPOSE OF ALL PEOPLE TO ACKNOWLEDGE EACH OTHERS EXISTENCE AND SPECIALNESS BECAUSE WE CANNOT ACKNOWLEDGE IT FOR OURSELVES.
