rain…

 
Today my cheeks were wet like the ground where I stood… it has been raining all day and I guess my soul is craving the springtime. This winter has ravaged my soul and spirit like the garden I tend to in warmer climate.  I’ve been telling myself and writing words of encouragement and forgiveness because it is good to forgive ourselves when we are weak and powerless when so much needs tending to and so much is undone… like me… at times I become undone.
But I look for that place of goodness and like a blanket I cover myself with it… head to toe…

It comforts me, soothes me… it saves my soul….
So I look for ways to distract my mind… to do good with my time…

room3

Creating a world that is beautiful for her to exist in… recreating a small space for her to be safe and loved…
And from there we travel to far away and exotic places as we sing songs in tongues that she’s yet to understand…
but we do…

room

Because dreaming, creating, imagining is free…

room2

Because it’s never as ugly as I tend to believe… and where shadows are cast some type of light source was behind it…

room1

and I do so full of hope… that to weep is never wrong. I guess I forgot that the buried, lost and underneath parts of life are the sweetest. And regardless of how I feel…
I am alive and I can chose to weep or rejoice…

Tomorrow we will rejoice…

  11. Great photos. There is something soft and romantic about black and white photos. They seem more intimate than full color.
