The way words come together


The way words come together.
What does it mean when a dyslexic person reads things in their own way?
The words seem to play frogger amongst the other lines of someone's thoughts
Jumping up and down the line teasing my minds eye
Missing vowels and misplacement among letters
Half the time I make up what I think it should say and the other half is filled with frustrations
I want to write so I read
I want to have said that I have read
Reading is helping me to think, to understand and to feel
I feel the words flush through me like a cleansing of starvation
But like starvation when nothing is consumed nothing can come out.

You think of a title for this one



I have been consumed by the events happening in my house so much that I have let a lot of the general day to day stuff go unnoticed. Now it is time to get back to school and work but I am not sure I can focus on that right now. For what ever reason, I got up this morning and got ready as I always do but today on my way to work I couldn’t help but want to vomit every time I saw something I didn’t like. What I am getting to, is that I really am tired of looking at all these people. Everyone here is looking for something but it seems that well they spend all their time looking for that one great thing but they are passing up all the important little things. Those little things are some of the most important threads in the fabric of life. They are all sitting in traffic with their cars and they nice cloths waiting for some miracle to save them from themselves. This is bullshit and I see it. Not only do I see this happening I am sitting right in the middle of it with them watching it happens to me.
I have got to get out of this town or change my views!

Winter


It has been a while since my last post and it seems that my posts are getting further and further from each other. To tell you the truth I just don't have anything to say. I have a house that feels more like a Motel 6 charging by the hour. They come they go and all I can say is nothing. They are all characters that I am learning something from so I just watch. I must say that because there are so many of my husbands side in the house I can't help but get better at speaking and understanding my second language of Spanish.
All and all things are good and I hope they will continually get better for the new year. Manolo and I have had some hard times and we are looking forward to 2007.

where it is...


Let me take a breath…
OK
I miss the cold and I know that you should be careful as to what you wish for because you may get it, but to that I say bring it on…
I swallow the 70 degrees Decembers and the yells from the couch about it being hot with a Christmas tree standing in my living room.
I know what it is to live on the extreme of both ends, but to live in the middle, will work for me, that is what I wish for so please give me the best of both.
I know that my family and I are blest with everything we have ever wanted but there is always more. That is HUMAN NATURE…

First I wish the best for all that surrounds me; then I wish that this year will yield a new life in location and new life in growth.
