Magpie Tales-Resolutions





Resolutions

I gave up
Thinking and started doing
I gave up
Doubting myself and took a risk
I gave up
Living in silence and anger
Choosing laughter and love
Started looking at the horizon
Found out what I was made of
What was true
What was real
For me
For you
I gave up
Not being me
Therefore,
I am new.

and yes, I gave up cigarettes too!! Happy New Year to all and thanks to Tess for  The Mag and the inspiration!!

striking face
box
slammer
slugger

no words
no point
no wrench
can fix
the fact
you hurt me

a new view




Mr. J and I took a trip out to New Mexico in late January, early February...We were blessed with beautiful weather.Hence the latest blog header of Kasha Katuwe "tent rocks" monument. The last few times we visited, the monument was closed so we were thrilled to be able to tackle the hike this visit. The only difference between this time and prior treks was the snow and ice at the top! Made the trip down a bit more exciting.

We stayed at the Hyatt Regency Tamaya Resort which is about 25 minutes north of Albuquerque. We must have passed this place a number of times on our past treks out to New Mexico but never saw it. Set on the Santa Ana Pueblo, we understood why as we made our way off the main highway and onto the hotel property, the hotel is virtually invisible until you are there --hidden in plain sight, the bosque and the Sandia mountains the only view one. Pretty amazing.

Magpie Tales-The Flame

caught in the day to day grind
it is hard to see the finish line
what was once fact
is now a question
in the back of
 the mind 
will it be
can it be
failure
success
past
future
known
unknown
dreams fuel
desire  inspire
keep moving
bright lights shine
on the horizon
a new day
will dawn
a new place and a new time


This is a Magpie Tale--go here to read more....
