Mike and I started saying this to each other when we first married. It has continued on for years and now our children are continuing it in their lives.

Where Did She Go?

She has changed.  She has grown.  She has retreated.  Where has she gone?

She experienced so much in a short period of time.

More than she had in her whole life.

She found what she didn't have, then,

She lost what she found.

Where did she go.

She experienced excitement, where it was missing

She saw wonder.

She found a small part of what it could be.

But where did she go?

She misses the life that was and what it could have been

And more importantly, what it could be.

Where did she go?

Do You Still Dream?


Yes, you.

Do you still dream?

Wake up in a moment and not know where you are?

 Have to check to make sure who you are with?

Caution yourself before you say a name?

Do you still dream of what could have been, might have been?

Do you still wake in the middle of the night wondering if I was dreaming too?

I still remember what it was like and how it felt.

I remember those thoughts and my heart pounding.

Do you still dream?

I remember what you taught me in those dreams.

How to live.

To be confident.

To care and love.

To dream of something better.

Do you still dream and remember like I do?

It's Been So Long For Me

I looked back and the last post was in March of this year.  It seems so much longer.

I have grown, changed, fretted, laughed and cried.

I can't believe where I was, where I am and where I'm going.  I have made friends, found others who were on the outside that are now in and have lost a dear, dear friend.

Yes, it has changed.  I have changed.  I have grown.

I am struggling to keep my new self and continue to grow.

I'm not sure where I will go, but I will continue on.

Love, Forever and a Day
