I go round and round on my thoughts of today and those of immediate past... my thoughts and concerns of those who are suffering from a situation that is and was far beyond their control... those who said it is time to leave... that who had said stay where you are... those that were left behind or forgotten... because of age or convenience... there are those who see misfortune as opportunity... and those who see a grander picture... and truly in the end it is those who have and those who have not... But I think there must come a point when we say... this is a tragic situation and there are no clear answers... we want to blame one and hold others accountable... we want to point but not see the real truth... and while all this is hard to watch... we have seen it before and will again... we come to the aid of those in need and offer ourselves to those without... money flows freely... offerings from many in amounts that touch hearts and yet within a short amount of time life becomes normal in the blink of an eye... and while we have broken hearts today for those in great need... tomorrow we will be again with our feet planted in the same position as we find ourselves today until the next big tragedy strikes... human kind and we decide to be more than we are... if only for a moment in time... today tomorrow and always

Wonder.... if... the day has come... or when it does... will I be one of those that is taken... or will I be left behind with the knowledge that... i knew and yet... it is easy to look into the eye of this day and wonder... i see so clearly the light that is lining the path... the way that only leads to where all I've ever dreamed would be... would actually be... i have spent my day with a firm belief that the one who will come is the one who knew where I would be on that moment of return and choose to let me be one of those who is here to be the guide and light to a wounded and sick hearted world... is this the place I will be left to endure... is this the path that has been designed for my feet to trod... will my place be reserved for something better... for work yet to be done... will I hold a truth... to share with those who... while I knew the way I yet chose to live a life of faith blinded by life...
Well this is the end of the first day of possibly many or even a few... i have tried to remain positive, consistent, hard, just... and right this moment I do not know how I feel... what I should feel... this is truly a place where I knew I was and yet decided to deny... the disease infests, inhabits,  enables the distrust to enter behind a steady fast faith... no matter how distant the goal seems to be... the nearer desire... to want to be relived of a heaviness that can only be explained by the action of others... who have been placed in an environment of trust... misfortune... resort... lack of choice... so to end this day in a place of even more uncertainty... no different from the recent past... i wonder outloud... is this really what you had in mind for me... again...
Interesting observation today... i attribute it to society and our lack of patience... our need for speed... lack of consideration... a commodity of time... and while these all mean something of the same... here i will begin this diatribe... i was waiting at the stop light today... the scene played out much like this... the cross traffic to which I was waiting had been brought to a halt due to 3 senior aged women...waiting patiently for the walk icon to flash on the stop light... one gentle spirit was with a walker... this was during a busy time of day and frankly on a corner that were you to step off to soon...at this particular corner of town those who are approaching tend to do so with speed... to which you could easily be sent to your reward... these were and had been waiting patiently for the icon signal to change from hand to walk signal... to which upon progression thru the walk lane... albeit a slow and steady pace... they were met with again the held up hand... traffic all...
