Blogophilia Week 28.5--Cracking the Code
You know? I made a mistake! I originally joined Blogophilia in August of 2011. I was so overwhelmed by the group, I waited over a year to start up my first blog with Blogophilia. I've been blogging for 3 and a half years. I don't know where my brain goes sometimes!
My first blog with Blogophilia was Week 28.5: Cracking the Code. I labeled the blog keeping up....I was a novice back then in my defense...
I am not sure where this blog will lead me....I'll just keep on writing anyway...
I wanted to write a short-story. As I had stated earlier, it seems when I do discuss myself, it goes over like a lead balloon. This is why I stick with stories and poems!
Some tell me to stick with poetry! Once they told me I should write about myself more. I was told by one person...maybe by two people that my storytelling was good!
I live in a world in my head that doesn't exist in reality....So here goes nothing...
Yes, there are always two choices...But which one is the right one? But I think of the Zeppelin song where they state, "There's still time to change the road you're on."
Some days, I feel like I've succeeded in this...and other times I feel like I've fallen so far back, I'm off the radar and will never come back!
"Everything we do in life is based on fear, especially love." I know I'm guilty of both. I know a lot has crippled me in the past from ever moving forward...But I keep moving forward. I keep thinking outside the box...I keep being me despite the well-read between the lines comments I get from others.
Yeah, sure that stuff sticks in my head for a bit, but then I get over it. I figure whatever their beef is, it isn't with me...That usually helps...Well that, and meditating!
I think I am cracking the code on this thing called life! It's about going up and down the stairs all the time! Going up is hard....your legs get sore, and you feel like giving up, but you don't. You keep on keeping on. After all, how will you get to your destination if you stop mid-flight on those stairs.
Going down the stairs is too easy....the momentum just makes you go downward really fast! It's up to you to make yourself slow down a bit. The amount of going up the stairs and going down the stairs should be at a steady pace...
And that's the end of my metaphor...I think that's a metaphor anyway!!!!
Hey! It's been a long week, and I am dead tired right now...And I still have to work tomorrow...
I'll read blogs later!

First here too??? LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteI hear you, girl. You just gotta keep on going. I like your metaphor about the stairs, going up and down. I can so relate. I have arthritis in both knees, so to UP the stairs is really a chore for me, and takes me a very l-o-n-g time but I eventually reach the top. Going downstairs is a bit faster, but not that much. Everyone still have to go around me, that's how slow I go down the stairs. But what can I say? Some people have it worse than I do, so I'm grateful that I can even go up/down the stairs.
Fantastic blog!!!! See. You did it!!! <3 :)

As you get older you will find those stairs get harder and harder to the point that going up is slow, but going down is a nightmare. You have to be real careful that you don't fall..Thank goodness for handrails to catch when you do slip and I do at least once a week it seems..Enjoyed your rambling /
ReplyDeleteStormy
