try to help.
try to love,
but when it flows
you think i force it on you
it's not enough
it's all i've got
but it's not love
if we asail each other's souls
i'm stepping back
at a distance
my agenda is packed up
i'm just resting
and i'm testing
the truth of my true love
let the hectic rule for now
tomorrow we'll rebuild
i won't worry
there's no need
devistate this if you will
a bigger glory's on it's way
and there's peace around the bend
tomorrow's a new day
until then we'll just pretend

waitin for mamasan
Quick note. I can easily waste an entire morning looking for new hairstyles on the web. How rediculous! Ma Hill should be here in 15 min. I'm going to go wash dishes. Dirty dishes are her peev.

Out of Orbit
I've been thinking about friendship. I had a small get together in September of friends I hadn't seen in a while. The friends that were there were friends met at different points in my life and each of them hold special significance for me.
Its nearly December now & I'm about to go back to New Zealand. I'm flogging myself a little, sadly, because I have seen so few people here in WA, and wishing that the time remaining wasn't so short, and wishing I had more time to see more people.
In the theory of Love Languages I found that Quality Time (QT) is 2nd of my top two languages. (Words of Affirmation = my # 1). Having QT as my second love language means that it is the second best way of making me feel like I am completely and utterly adored. I cherish when people want to hang out, go on a hike, make sugar cookies, watch movies, throw a party, take a road trip, have coffee, go on a drive, etc, etc, etc.
It connects me to others and I LOVE it!
There are also friends I wish I was still connected with. People who have made amazing impacts on me. Some have kids or are in different cities... or we just don't connect anymore.
We've fallen out of orbit.
It is an interesting thing that I am learning. The lessons of loss and love. So often we only know loss and love via death and romance. But somewhere in the middle is the way more common love and loss of friendships that change and mold us into who we are today.
To all friends loved and lost, my "out of orbits" I say "I'm sorry for not sharing my present with you. I am missing you and thinking of you on a daily basis."
