A place to land

The moon over my shoulder,
A breeze in my hair,
A chill to be felt,
In the brisk evening air.

We sit on the bench,
At the edge of the park,
And listen to the sounds,
As the light fades to dark.

 I close my eyes,
As I sink into you arms,
The warmth of you touch,
Just one of your charms,

With my head on your chest,
I can hear your heart beat,
Time stands still for us,
As life moves on in the street.

The lights come on,
Electric stars bright the sky,
We sit there together,
Letting time slip on by.

You kiss me so gently,
On top of my head,
Quiet peace comes over me,
A single tear shed.

The turmoil is over,
The chaos is gone,
Our lives have changed,
Now it's time to move on.

You hold me close,
As we stand up to leave,
How far we have come,
Is sometimes hard to believe.

To think of the hell,
We have both been thru,
To think we could love again,
So strong and so true.

It's been a long journey,
Finally come to an end,
So calming and healing,
Having some place to land.

Teach a man to fish

The old saying " Give a man a fish, he'll eat for the day. Teach a man to fish and feed him for a lifetime. " has to do with teaching someone to do something. But what if they don't want to learn? It can be frustrating for anyone, how you can make something so easy for someone else to do and yet they still manage to screw it up. I know a few people in life like this. You can give them specific, written directions to follow, step 1, step 2, step 3 and so on... everything but hold their hand or do it for them. They still manage to blow it. There are people who leave you scratching your head in wonder, if they really just don't get it? They try, they honestly do and yet they fall short over and over, time and again. They either rush thru things, ignore things, skip things or try to just finish it now and come back later to clear up rather than do it right from the beginning. Um, no. It doesn't always work that way. I have always asked- if you didn't have ...

Bad Pixie? Yep, that's me!

I have recently found a website that is authored by a woman who is dealing with how her life has been changed following her husbands traumatic brain injury. In reading through her notations of his behavior, outbursts, threats, and several other issues she has come to deal with as they present themselves, I can't help but notice the profound number of similarities between her husband and someone I know very well. The one major difference is the timing of the occurrance of the brain injury. Her husband behaves this way as a result of his brain injury. The person I know behaves the way they do and may recieve a brain injury (think frying pan to the head) as a result. Although I would never do it, believe me, some days it is mighty tempting... A good friend of mine shared a bit of medical insight on all of this. "Post concusion syndrome or low grade brain injuruies do have a profound impact on personality, and are very often missed when the injury involves no LOC or very sh...
