Sunday Community: Reminded

... Sometimes you need to be reminded ...

 

He whispers in my ear and tells me I AM fearless.
He shares melody and tells me to repeat it.
He makes me whole.
He reminds my soul...
I am all He says I am.
I am all He says I am.
I am all He says I am,
And He says I am His own.

Today's prompt: Ordinary

Five Minute Friday

Ordinary.

                 Regular.

                               Simple.

Why, when so many these days are striving to capture the unique, the outstanding, the striking, I long for the simple, the normal, the commonplace. I find I am much more content with the ordinary, the functional, the purposeful.  In such spaces I have found peace, quiet, very little traffic and an unexpected elegance. Gone is the time when I yearned for life’s corner office but now a quiet room in the back away from the noise is what I seek. And I am not at all convinced that it is a bad thing to wish for at all. 

Can you tell this is the weary posting of a woman who has had an out of the ordinary week? 

How do you find your way back after the extra-ordinary has been a bit too much? 

Five Minute Friday: Write - My 50th Post!

Joining with Five Minute Friday sponsored by Lisa-Jo Baker. On Friday, Lisa-Jo posts a one word prompt and for five minutes even we write what the prompt brings to mind. No rewrite, nor editing just letting the words flow. 

Note: I didn't know until after I finished and hit the publish button that this post about writing is my 50th published post. So today in line with this month's theme of 'Celebrating You!' I am going to celebrate ME by taking myself out to breakfast later in the morning! :) 

Five Minute Friday

Today's Prompt: Write 

 

Words.

I love words.

I love to write words down.

I love to write words down so much that for a long, long time 

I stopped writing.

My life became too busy and too complicated.

I had too little time for too many things.

Instead of starting to write only to have to stop before I could finish 

I just didn’t start. 

I feel the pressure of unwritten words build up in my soul like water builds up behind a dam. 

I wonder...

Is it aching happiness I feel when the dam breaks?

Or is it glorious terror as words rush from me in waves until instead of too few words 

I almost have too many.
