Motherhood by bearpaw48, literature

Motherhood

Is motherhood messing with your hair?" (Its a Sauve commercial) It made me think, no, remember," Yup, motherhood messes with your hair, figure,time and energy..... So why is it , that to most women we are not complete without our babies. Our children fill the void in our soul. They are our hope and imagination ,our contribution. It is truly a miraculous connection carrying another little life inside you. A connection that hopefully you will have the rest of your lives and beyond. It is one of the few times that a man looks at you with love, pride and passion. When he treats you with tenderness, reverance and respect. Notice that look in

Thank You America by bearpaw48, literature

Thank You America

Thank God, America woke up and took back their destiny. After eight of the worst years in our History, We finally can see the light at the end of the Long dark tunnel, that was Bush's reign. America has spoken, and now we need to roll up our sleeves and get to work, Fixing our broken Country will be a difficult task, But as a collective voice we have already began to heal. Thank you America for restoring my faith in us all, Well most of us all Thank you

Angel of Death by bearpaw48, literature

Literature

Angel of Death

Tis the season of lights and giving, I am fully emersed in the Spirit of the Season, In the midst of lists and bustle, I was stopped in my tracks, Completely caught off guard, by his appearance, Quiet like a shadow, I keep my distance, Though I don't think it's me he's come for. I could be wrong, but I don't think so.... I'll just solemnly go about my business, And leave him to his, Though the spirit of life is strong, the spirit of death is stronger. My thoughts and prayers are with my Father, who is slipping into Alzheimer's And as of today is being shipped up North, alone to wait. And with Matt, a young man with a young family,

conversation with myself

So, the new "career" is not going well.... What are you going to do? Well, let me see... "thinking of the options available" I could start feeling really sorry for myself- No that wont solve anything, and would make matters worse. I could get angry- Nope thats never a solution to anything. I know , I could cry a puddle, and get those really aweful puffy red eyes- You Are Kidding right, since when has THAT solved anything. Well then smarty pants, What? I am going to have to focus, focus, focus AND believe.... focus on what is wrong and BELEIVE that I CAN do things right. Sounds good, but... What if.... you know you come up shor

the diamond in me

The Diamond in Me Yes I have many facets That's why I sparkle When held to the light But, when held in darkness My sparkle fades It doesn't disappear, just fades But as long as I have the light in my heart The sparkle will live, and My will is strong Some have tried to kill the spirit And extinguish my sparkle But I still survived It's the diamond in me That's how I survive I accomplish this by having faith, an Incredible amount of faith In a higher power and in myself. I was put here for a reason And that was not to feel sorry for myself or to give up Karma, the good kind is very important as well Because good balances out

bad karma

A few bad things happened to me in 2008 I'll not bore you all with the details, Besides some of you know the God Aweful details, So to start this New Year off right, Lets try to put a comic spin on it, OK I tried Sorry but theres no funny way to look at this, Trying to carry on a normal life while, Cohabitating with a habitual deceit, Not easy,but doable. Patience is a very strong virtue, even though mine is wearing thin. I have been on regular speaking terms with The Higher Power, Regarding this specific problem, and I believe there is light At the end of this long tunnel. In other words I firmly believe my patience will be rew

Journey of the Soul by bearpaw48, literature

Literature

Journey of the Soul

Journey of the Soul The pages that follow are my attempt to find myself again. I will dare to travel to another dimension with the help of my muse. This will be a fantastic place that dwells in the imagination, filled with all the mystical, magical and dangerous beings that have always resided there. Finally it is time to search, follow, meet and face what is on the other side….. of me. Today I discovered how one can be betrayed by the person of their dreams. How we can betray ourselves by forgetting who we truly are, by following false dreams. In order to stay true to our self, we must know and accept ourselves fully and uncondition

Literature

Lifes Little Instruction Book

Lifes Little Instruction Book Part I Balance Walking a tightrope between Mars and Venus Intense concentration not to stumble, Makes my head hurt, So rapped am I that I lose focus Of the important things. The natural beauty of unconditional love and acceptance, Trusting friendship, two wonderful daughters, brilliant fall foliage, Rocky and Mo. Though I feel it most of the time, I know I am not alone, And that the biggest hurt can sometimes be healed with a laugh or a hug, or maybe just kind and understanding words, A test in faith does not make me leap, I stay the course, focusing on Balance.

Instruction Book Part II

Life’s Little Instruction Book Part II Empowerment of the Feminine Mystic Or the power of being true to ones self. After a particularly arduous journey,it sometimes becomes apparent that the ordeal has left us shaky and uncertain. There are two directions one can take at this juncture; toward enlightenment or darkness. Enlightenment is bright, colorful, a warm and fuzzy place. A place where everything feels right, warm and balanced. You are sure of yourself and your purpose, and you smile, alot. Picture a warm comforting blanket on a brisk day with the smell of baking apples wafting from the oven. This is a beautiful p

The Art of Forgiveness by bearpaw48, literature

Literature

The Art of Forgiveness

A really good friend told me about the virtues of forgiveness. I have giving this alot of thought, and she is right (she almost always is ) To forgive brings peace and clarity, and gives you the ability to move on. It gives you a chance to throw out negative baggage, to lighten your soul and to examine what is really important. I choose to remain in love with someone who by way of a huge and henious mistake managed to improve the quality of our love. But every now and then the human element creeps in and cause a bit of a bump in the road. The trick is not to let the little bump become a huge pothole. Insecurity, jealousy and uncertainity

Journal Entry 6/5

0 min read

A lot has happen in a very short time, real life stuff that no one would find very interesting, unless of course you are going through it, too. I will focus on the positive because I do not like to dwell on the negative "Bad Karma" and nightmares I don't need to relive thank you. When I think back the last couple of year's two things JUMP out at me, first I discovered Build a Bears, and yes, now I am addicted. Being a Bear collector/rescuer from way back it is only natural that my latest obsession has something to do with Teddy.  I believe my collection has reached over 100 by now. The most recent rescue was a poor Bear from the middle of Ma

The Diamond In Me

Yes I have many facets That's why I sparkle When held to the light But, when held in darkness My sparkle fades It doesn't disappear, just fades But as long as I have the light in my heart The sparkle will live, and My will is strong Some have tried to kill the spirit And extinguish my sparkle But I still survived It's the diamond in me That's how I survive For I am strong, ancient and faceted I may have started out as a lump of coal But life has polished me Into a brilliant sparkling Diamond.
