I am not a mouse
What do you want from me?
A lie?
To hide?
To say I don't care for things I
Desire more than any other thing!?
For what?
Some stupid game of cat and mouse?
I AM NOT A MOUSE and
I am NOT sorry.
Everything required of me,
Everything that I am counseled to
Do to prepare for my
Great desire has made me
Tall
Broad
Wise
Strong
Bold
& Even
Masculine
These things are expected of me by my leaders
Required of me by my temporal world
You ask me to build them
To make up for my loneliness
And the TEAR THEM APART
with CRITICISM.
You CRITICIZE my
Height
Breadth
Wisdom
Strength
Boldness
And say I am
Unfeminine
When it is YOU who have made me so.
Sir, YOU are NOT my partner
Sir, you are not MY partner
and with YOU I have not part.
My part is equally
Tall
Broad
Wise
Strong
Bold
Complimentary in gender
He is not a cat,
I am not a mouse
WE are equally yoked
Oxen
In partnership, equal though unique
We walk side by side
In syncing steps
Mirroring one another
He does not need me to blush and faint
To know that I am a woman
Nor do I need him to catch me to know that he is a man
He does not need me to blush and faint
To know that he is a man
Nor do I need him to catch me to know that I am a woman
We are candid and honest
We are not frivolous with our
Greatest desires or
Hide our hearts to get our dreams
I am NOT a mouse
I will not be chased
I am an ox
I am looking for my part
I am not ASHAMED to WANT and
NEVER STOP WANTING
my
EQUAL YOKE
If you cannot walk beside me
Look elsewhere,
And cease your criticism
There's nothing wrong with what I am
You're just looking for someone else.

2 Tim. 1:7
As I sat in the car on my ride home from rehearsal I listened to the dating exploits. How fickle is the heart and how stalwart is the mind. Can they never agree on a prospective mate, and when they do the mate is fickle too. So much to line up just so so that two can start a journey full of rocks and water and earth and fire.... it's a wonder that we find someone to be with at all.
I fear...
and I know I shouldn't
but..
'are you dating anyone Val?'
'no'
why?
why not?
I'm trying not to be discouraged
but I know of a group
that spend their life alone..
please God
not me please
I know why not
I expect a lot
I deserve a lot
It's just not yet.
I have a romantic story to look forward to
that's all
I don't know whose lyrics these are but they're doing be some good this evening
thanks EFY :)
Purple skies
Hazel eyes
fireflies
new horizons
In the spring
grey turns green
hope once dead is
brought to life
shady tree
shoes in hand
with my bare feet
in the sand
Spanish pros
skipping stones
the dusty road
that takes me home
People have told me how to be happy
but I find their remedies empty
these are my pearls
God's treasure's unfurled
mean more to this girl
more than the world to me
Photographs from the past
Summer nap time in the grass
Constellations in the sky
the northern lights will make you cry
People have told me how to be happy
but I find their remedies empty
these are my pearls
God's treasure's unfurled
mean more to this girl
more than the world to me
Grant me twenty thousand wishes
cover me with lavish things but
I believe in loaves and fishes
miracles and mustard seeds
People have told me how to be happy
but I find their remedies empty
these are my pearls
God's treasure's unfurled
mean more to this girl
more than the world to me

and I know I shouldn't

Dear Husand...
Dear Husband,
I'm starting to realize that I've been focusing on the wrong things. I've been putting people last and career/work/money first. yuck. I hope I don't do that to you some day but inevitably humans mess up so its likely. I guess you could say this is an advanced apology. I love you. really. I want you to come into my life and be someone to do things with. But I need to start practicing that before you get here. That way I won't be so lonely in the meantime. Follow your dreams, and stay close to the Lord. See you soon(er than later I hope). All the best- and truly the best of the best

That's a lot of milk...
May I draw your attention to the FULL ON Britney mic he is giving us. May I also draw your attention to the fact that there are 4 of us and we are less than five feet away. Thank you Billings farm for your amazing character study opportunities.

I wish I knew the future you
little lips,
tiny hands,
all the makings of hu-man
all the things we will not share
a generation splits a pair
And when I'm old I'll see the past
I'll tell you you should make it last
and wonder how I'd handle life
had I been born your birthday night
I wish I knew the future you
that has a goal like me
that struggles with the things I do
I wish I knew the future you
scabby shell,
golden heart,
things that kept our life apart
not the love, no no not that
just swords pulled from the sorting hat
the path that bends we know not where
I know that you'll be waiting there
I wish I knew the future you
I'd tell him what I'm going through
the journey on the other side
that for the moment I must hide
I wish I knew the future you
that lives in the same world
that holds my hand the whole way through
I wish I knew the future you
He passed that night his hand in hers
and left a quiet gentle word
and lights grow dim, and carry flame
a place the grants a newer name
And when my light is fading fast,
I'll throw away my weary past,
Look forward to that blessed day
that I'll fulfill the words I say:
"I wish I knew the future you"
at peace at last I finally do
for love has brought the circle round
and light it's greatest purpose found
for when I know the future you
I know exactly what we'll do
we'll laugh at all the loss and say
"I knew that I'd know you someday"
