This is life




The water, gently moving,
evolving dreams from those who look in it,
creating hope, renewing faith.
I see a new me emerging, with all new perspectives,
a sudden energy for life,
a longing to never change again...
But beneath the crystal water there lies a problem.
Will I escape?
The current now getting stronger,
I sway back and forth, trying to stay on top.
The movements become faster,
I'm drowning in my own feelings.
In an attempt to escape, I realise that
THIS IS LIFE.
And the water gently moves again...

  1. Thank you for sharing, Kat.

    This holds some very beautiful imagery. It makes me long for those times when I'm stuck deciding to fight the current or be swept away by it.

    Take care.

  2. Dear fur sissy,

    Thank you for your note, and for reading :-)

    For me, this wasn't so much fighting the current, it was more if the fact that even though you may become overwhelmed with thoughts, with feelings and emotions that taking a moment can enable the chance to find some gentle calm as the current becomes gentle once more. It's a reflection of thoughts further to my last blog of trying to regain my control....

    Thanks once again,

    Best, Kat

    1. Thank you, Kat.

      I had guessed that it was what you were meaning. What I wrote was mostly sentimentality that the waters in my life have been far too dull and uninspiring.

      I really enjoy the way that you express your thoughts and feelings.

      Take care.

  3. Dear Fur sissy,

    Thank you!

    Life goes, as it does with the tide, with ebbs and flows. My life has been pretty dull and uninspiring for a long while for various reasons. But things can happen when we least expect it, I think if we can always remain open to the possibilities then it can be a wonderful thing when things do change.

    As has happened recently with me, things are certainly very different right now and that is a wonderful thing. I wish the same for you.

    Best, Kat
