“It comes and goes in waves…”
I am slowly coming back to life.
Through images and actions and sounds and words;
I feel the electricity that is me, myself, and I.
Finger cannot be put on it, but I call it longing.
I desire the monochrome to be colored brilliantly,
With glitter and confetti and soaring thoughts;
I think we all want something more.
Not to be caged in the daily boredom,
I strive for those moments when doors can be opened
Allowing take off.
I fly to the clouds with mended wings.
Listen and enjoy:
In Between Color & Monochrome
This is where I find myself….
The fact is, that to do anything in the world worth doing, we must not stand back shivering and thinking of the cold and danger, but jump in and scramble through as well as we can.—Robert Cushing
“I choose to find the beauty, I choose to see the love and brilliance in the [woman] I behold” —Michelle Ensminger
7 things I find at the center of my longing:
…to be completely healthy,
…to find my purpose as a photographer,
…to make time for conscious breath daily,
…to find a balance between being a mother and being a woman,
…to set goals for family, home, relationships, work, and myself,
…to relinquish worry and self doubt,
…to always be true to my morals and beliefs
Where I Stand:
Living; Day By Day
This is where I stand: I’m a mother. I’m a photographer. I’m a blogger/writer. I’m a Family Support Liaison {I like that one of my titles includes the word “liaison”—it’s so French.}
Mix all these things together and oftentimes it’s hard to catch a moment to concentrate on myself: How I care for myself. How I address my needs. How I tend my dreams.
There’s so much more I should be doing: I should practice Yoga daily. I should just exercise daily, in general. I should eat better and lose weight.
I should be more patient. I should focus in my business direction. I should figure out how to use this blog more, these days, because lately it seems like it’s asleep.
My heart tells me that it wants to do things. And, I’m still just trying to figure out how to let myself fall into the center of my longing.
Beautiful and terrible things will happen. Don’t be afraid. – Frederick Buechner
