Thoughts on a September Day


Where do I go from here?  Lately, I’ve been on a journey wandering through my dreams and trying to figure out where I wish to linger and places it’s time to move on from.  I admit…I love reading blogs.  Yes, I relish reading the words of others along with sighing at the beauty others create, which leads me to wondering.  In this year and a half waltz through the blogosphere I’ve discovered….

I sigh at beauty…
soft, elegant, vintage, old-world beauty
Found here and here.

I smile at the whimsical…
chickens scratching, dogs that talk, and fairies lighting on fern fronds
and find it here.

Photography fills me with joy…
whether it’s a photo of a weather-beaten man of the sea or the velvet, striated petals of a rose
discovered in places like this.

Peace comes in the garden…
oh yes; I feel a deep sense of peace and tranquility in a garden, any garden
whether found online or in my backyard

Words haunt me…
when words pour from me I am often lost in a world of my own making, but the words of others touch me in profound ways as these do.

All these very creative pursuits seem but a dream and a dance away and yet…

I’m confused by all this.  I’m not sure which path to follow.  I take in the breath-taking views of others and ponder how each one found their own room with so many to choose from.  What made one person choose this and another that?  Did it come slowly over time or was it always known?  I question…where have I failed? Why am I still wandering?
