The river ebbed and flowed along my feet
Asking me if courage I had to leap
Into unknown the scary but depth sweet
As the heat of the day started to seep
The blue of the water engulfed me whole
As I gave in to the fervor of day
Awoke from a slumber my sleepy soul
Oh and surprise, it had a lot to say
It asked me why I was so grounded yet
When I could drift in any given tide
Why give yourself the time to sweat and fret
When you could rise high in the sky and glide
I will not be moored at a dull standstill
When I could relish life and time with thrill

Turning Pages of Life
Life’s like a book — some parts are good, others not so much. Still, keep turning the pages; you might find the best chapter next. If someone hurts you, choose to forgive or just let it be, but never change who you are for them.

On Winning and Losing
Recently, the pleasant surprise of placement on the Vocal Bonus Leaderboard sent me down a rabbit hole. Now, rabbit holes are a pretty common place for me to spend time, but I don't always feel the call to write about them. To be honest, the thought of sharing some of them mortifies me.
