I think I took a trip to hell Wednesday—-You know the expression everybody in “hell” wants ice water—-That is how I knew I took a trip to hell—-I wanted ICE WATER—-and not to drink—-I wanted to swim in it—-It is that hot here—-and Missy knows it—-not just me.
Should I whine—bitch and complain—-You bet I […]

Have you fell in love yet—well if not love, have I interested you in the special state I call home? If not maybe you will by the end of this post.—Oh and here is a few interesting facts:
State Abbreviation - GA

Area - 59,441 square miles (24th […]

Are you loving Georgia yet—if not just wait because there is something for everyone. We have peaches to beaches, fountains to mountains and so many other things—So come along and travel Georgia with me.
Ray Charles I can hardly even think of “Georgia on My Mind” or “What’d I Say?” without hearing the unmistakable cadence […]

The Charlie Daniels Band seems to like the South and Georgia—-or if you listen to the lyrics in their music you might think that—-Devil Went Down to Georgia—–The devil went down to Georgia, he was looking for a soul to steal.’Cos hells broke loose in Georgia and the devil deals it hard. We all […]

Many times I am a maze of contradictions——rebellious, poetic, passionate and moody.
Often I feel and know I am strong enough to fight for my beliefs, stubborn to a fault even fighting long after a cause was lost, not wanting to let go, refusing to admit defeat.
I can be found at times dreaming and knowing I […]

There are so many things I want to say—-there are even more things I need to say. I learned early and often not to show all I feel. There are times I am quiet and attempt to avoid conflict. At times my outward expression of an emotion—-be it anger, crying, smirking, cheering, joy, or happiness […]

I search tirelessly for meaning and truth…
Yet I find no direction.
I bleed quietly in times of loneliness.
I yearn to find warmth and happiness…

I seek out visions in times of want.
I gaze through the blackness that envelops them…

I listen […]

I believe that everything in life is a lesson. There is an opportunity to learn from everything. And when you’re faced with a hard situation, think about what you can learn from it and how you can benefit from it.

Woodrow Wilson said “I am, in every thought of my heart yours.”
Hermann Heese said “If I know what love is, it is because of you.”

And I say……

and life, to understand that
two people don’t fall in love,
they grow into it slowly—-
