Returning to my daily activities

I finally returned home late last night... with a dark silence in the house. My sister opened the kitchen door for me and helped me out with one of my bags. I gave her a nice hug afterwards. It has been about 10 days that I have had no contact with my family or my usual activities... and it feels so good to be back home. I will tell you about my journeys in the next few posts.

the path

She stands with her body pressed against the wall... as the smell of recently dried paint spins the room into a four sided tornado. "Let me be invisible and melt into this brick red wall for just this moment, without no soul and no emotions. Without this heavy fear inside me" The door suddenly opens. He walks in and slowly turns to her. "You misunderstood" he says. "Embrace those fears and all of its emotions... it will take you to the soul you seek to become." "March on. Do not tarry. To go forward is to move toward perfection. March on, and fear not the thorns, or the sharp stones on life's path." - Kahlil Gibran

the lonely guest

Anxiety lurks within her these past few months...taking in half of the oxygen and throwing her the rest to gasp on. She knows what will set her free from it but chooses to ignore the whispers...uninspired to take the step. The weight of the world does not lie upon her yet she doesn't open herself freely to it. You are the way, You are the light, but she chooses the shadowed corner on this quiet night.
