He Picked Out a Pink Toothbrush…

It’s just that simple. My 2 year old son Maverick was given the chance to pick out his own toothbrush. Well, I didn’t tell him too, he just kinda grabbed it even though I told him we di…

I believe in Soulmates

Maybe I am just an optimistic lover, but I believe there is a such thing as a soulmate. I believe that everyone deserves someone like them whether thats a good or bad thing but I am a firm believer in Soulmates. To me, a soulmate is an imperfect person that exceeds your “image” of the perfect lover. Someone who completes you and even when the dark times hit, they will be there to bring light into your situation. The person that can except your many flaws, admit their shortcomings, and is willing to work with you and become a better person. No matter how long the road is and how many falls you take, your soulmate is taking every step with you on this journey called Life. A soul mate is someone you cannot see yourself without because you know you’ll lose a piece of yourself, a piece of your heart at the mere thought of their departure. The bond between you two that feels so amazing you pinch yourself to see if its real. That person that makes you happy and can put a smile on without them even trying. Many people find them, and some people havent bumped into them yet, but I know there is a such thing as a soulmate. After all, I have one who’s last name I took.

The Ticking Time Bomb

 

Be careful of your steps

Around the ticking time bomb

You trip, once, twice, or more

She’ll point out your wrongs

Keep your distance when the time gets near

When she’s ticking don’t you dare try to be bold

You pick on her when she’s low

And she’ll be quick to explode

Give her space

She needs it to maintain

Give her heart time to heal

And she’ll be back to herself again

She has a kind heart, a beautiful soul

She’s just had too much heartache for too long

So be cautious of what you do or say

Around the Ticking Time Bomb.

Get Out of That Box!

How can you breathe in that small box?

I know it’s difficult to move around

I couldn’t stay in there forever

You should get out, stretch, move around!

There’s moments to be captured

One snap at a time

There’s fresh air to enjoy,

flowers to adore

And special lovers to find

Get out of that box!

You’ve been in there too long

Your mind has held you back

And its time for you to become strong

Let go of all that fear

And come with me to a place

Where there’s lots of learning to do

And your success runs at your own pace

Take those steps into freedom

Take your mind out of that box

I must warn you that if you don’t

You’ll forever be held captive by your thoughts

“GET OUT!”

In my Corner. . .

Quick!

Fast! In a hurry!

Let’s go to my corner

Where negativity is buried

Worries

Worries

Let go of it all!

Pour it all! Pour it all I say!

And let’s have a ball!

Stay with me and

share our love

I’m trying to spread my happiness and bring peace

I’m trying to mimic the dove

With all the stress and the tests

You need some time to relax

With all the stabs in the back

You need to cut some slack

When things get hard to handle

Or you’re suffering from boredom

I’ll be here waiting for you,

In my corner.

-Natalie Alcyonia Rains

I’m going somewhere!

I’m going somewhere

I can feel it, I can smell it

I am going somewhere

And I will live it, I will tell it.

I’ve got a story that’s writing itself every morning

It’s gonna have some cliff hangers

And some chapters that might be boring

But I am going somewhere in LIFE!

Just wait and see

I am making my steps as steep as they can be.

I walk on my path

And as I stop and stare

At how many paths I have taken so far

And how many I will take to give myself a dare

I may not be sure of where this cracked pavement will take me

But I’ll take every fall that causes a scar,

Every destination that seems too far

Every distraction that takes it’s part

And every time I  trip over a rock that I don’t see

I will pick myself back up because

I’ve got somewhere to be!

Everyone has their own world.

 

I’d say that everyone has  their own world to live in and the people we meet and call friends just orbit around, curious to know whats goes on the inside and out. We are all someone special, having our unique talents and characteristics that make us… well…who we are. Each and every one of us are in our own world. Separately, we water our plants with knowledge that we continue to learn. We speak our own tongue, our voices flow like the rivers and the oceans. Our bright minds bring sunshine and happiness upon the grass, swaying with every thought that passes our minds. The thunderstorms come from our rough times, and for some people like myself, the rain during the storm is what calms me, grabbing a hold of my sanity. Our friends play the part of the moon. They orbit around  almost everyday learning more about us. Our moons (friends) are there to either bring darkness, light or both to our lives. I find it amazing for people to be in their own world. It’s exciting to know what we have in common and what differences we have. We all have our own world to live in, have you been taking care of yours?
