A world forgotten

I sat at the beach and gazed out at the turquoise waters and then asked how a world that holds such beauty could be overrun with dismay. The silent whisper of the wind gently telling me the earth's secrets comforted my slouched body. I lay in my lounger with sand granules coating my toes after I had dipped my lower region in the cool sea water. Seashells pricked the bottom of my soles as I strode across the shoreline. It was a rejuvenating experience. The sky was the most amazing color blue, and I looked into the clear skies and wondered how a world so beautiful could contain such hurt.

Ready, Set, Go!

I woke this morning and I was ready. God spoke so clear to me and I knew exactly what to do. It is time for a 'right here, right now' lifestyle. Use what you have until you get what you want.
My aim is so high that I had my head too far in the clouds. The air is gorgeous up there, but a quick trip back to solid ground makes me well aware. At the end of a day, it is me and only me. I have to do it. My destiny, my goals, my livelihood, this is all up to me. I would never discredit my higher power, but we all understand what faith without work is.
So, today I woke up with clear vision of what I need to do right here, right now. For this I am thankful, and I am in the ready position all set to go.
