ON GRAVEL The bedrock of life Is not a smooth surface Many times are rocky, Walking is careful To avoid turning An ankle on a misstep Where broken rock trips Souls toward disaster; Measuring always Scenery surrounding Wild, whether country, Or anxious cityscape Where many soles Travel the pavement. Business beating all A heart-swelling rhythm Jockeying for eminence Stealing copious hours To lend – swiftly recovered Dollars for delicate breath No chance to dance Over gravel for haste, Life’s chase consuming pace.
Loyalty, at times Can best be found residing In the noble heart Of a friend on furry feet Who cannot secrets repeat. The eyes a glory Focused with love, devotion, Finding such pleasure In helping sorrow abate With gentleness, sweet kisses. Tender is the heart Joined in comfort, friendship, Who will stay until The last, when tears fill our eyes And we are broken in loss.
Prompt Consider the ones who always cheer for you, those you can trust; create something.
I am grateful for a warmer day though there was rain at the edges. I was glad for the Oreos and Almond Milk. I am happy that it seems I may be losing a bit of the weight I have gained. Clean bed linens are a piece of Heavenly delight. I am thankful for my home.

We cannot control everything. Sometimes it is even impossible to manage the meat-space behind our eyes. There is so much of our brainpower we do not use according to science, but maybe it only comes online in the odd moment to suggest and fixate on things obscure. They are not entirely sure, so how should we be?
We creatives can do this; we can ditch procrastination and show up to work or play, as we may see it.
Since devices distract, we can take them off-line and turn them off. Analog is refreshing at times. A blank canvas or page has charm unmatched by screens. If we need references, books of the material variety are always workable.
Sitting with the quiet, allowing ourselves to think deeply, opens the opportunity for images and words to present themselves without vying for attention in our minds, making it easier to bring them to life.
Calls, social media, texts will wait for us. Life may move, but it is exceedingly likely nothing ground-shattering will happen during the space of a creative session.
Getting busy creating and minimizing distractions while making or writing something may lead to breakthroughs of startling proportion.
If we needed screens to be productive creatively, the old masters and former generations would never have achieved all the wonders that presaged our civilization.
Check out to dig in and do something marvelous!

Everyone feels defeated at times; the world and its problems overwhelm the mind and emotions. Personal setbacks also seem insurmountable, but creativity, positivity, and prayer help everyone overcome.
Prayer can settle the mind and help ideas arise, which upset can cloud. Having a possibility outlook, where positive material is brought into the intellect regularly, also adds confidence to a person’s toolbox. Creativity may supply unusual solutions or unique rationales that incite action and bring courage.
Asking others to share a burden or soliciting advice can be helpful, but these can also confuse. Many things require individual attention. There are deep wells of ability in each person when accompanied by a belief in oneself.
Treating others and ourselves with love is advised by the Bible, and it has many benefits. It gives the right impetus to allow us to conquer impossibility and rids us of many negativities which seize control and convince us of inadequacies.
Remember, sometimes goals are not accomplished immediately; great things may require a commensurate investment of time.
