In Search Of.......

HIGHWAY by Casey Stratton Tell me you might find your faith again Give me a time, I’ll see you then I’ll give this another chance Highway stretching out in front of me I’ll be there by the morning When we’ll see more clearly If you need, I can believe for you If you try, I can survive for both of us I can be what you need me to be I know there was a time when we both Tried to give up but we won’t We're so much more than we know So please don’t tell me you’ve given up hope We’ve come too far to let go Give me a chance to show you love You are stronger than your agony Give it time and I know you’ll see Everything I can see Sunrise is casting out its blue light I’ll get to you just in time For our day to finally shine If you need, I will bleed for you If you try, I will supply to you What you need, I can give everything I can find you anywhere, any time I can give you back your life

I see a sliver of light It shines right through these trees Soon it will cover everything Please don’t take it from me Please don’t take it from me I could have sworn I heard a prayer Slowly chanted in the night Soon now, deliverance is mine Please hear what I’m saying Please hear what I am saying Will you stay or will you go? Will you gain speed or will you slow? We are approaching the crossing I feel the first drops of rain Soon we will wash away Take all our bitterness to sea Don’t go so far away from me Don’t go so far away from me I let myself ride on the waves I don’t care where they will take me As long as you’re floating next to me Don’t leave me drifting away from you Don’t leave me drifting away from you (Still as the sea......Dense are the clouds I hear your sound......Washing down) I feel you still I know we will by  Casey Stratton

I just kinda "stumbled across" this blog that I forgot I had once again. It happens every few years or so. I start doing some Google housekeeping and realize, "Oh yeah...I actually have a blog I started in 2005!". I guess my first thought should be, "Do people even have blogs any more"? I guess in some form or another, they're still quite prevalent. Whether it be a podcast, or a medium article, or as a guest author on some tech, lifestyle, relationship, etc.-type website.....it's all still blogging, isn't it? I think it's just that now, in 2018, the blogs are more of a "community" effort, rather than a single, personal blog. I guess that's a good thing..... ?  Who knows?! Anyway.....back to me! (Ha! this ain't no place for collaboration! It's a solo gig!). I guess that kinda sums up this update, as it were. 13 years after starting this public diary and I am solo , once again. Although I have to ask myself if thi...

Is There Anything Worth Holding On To? (words & music by the genius, Scott Alan) Lately it seems I've lost inspiration It feels like it's miles away I sleep through the day And cry through the night time I'm caught in an empty space  It takes effort to fight  I don't have the strength  I'm holding on to what's still left of me  When the life you had planned  Slowly slips through your hands  When it feels like you just slept through all  The best years of your life  When you can't find your way  When each day ends the same  When you've lost the fight inside of you  Is there anything worth holding on to?  It's hard to be strong  When weakness is stronger  I'm a prisoner in my own skin  I'm not good on my own  I need to be cared for  Someone to help these days begin  There are dreams I've let die  That I just pushed aside  I need to find out how to turn the dark back into light  Whe...

So here I am again, with the same question I inevitably return to.  What is the point....of anything?  No matter what I go through, no matter how much progress I make, no matter how many thousands of miles I move my entire life, I always end up right back to asking that same damn question.  Clearly I'm making the wrong choices in my life.  Especially with the few people I allow to be in it. My theme song in my head right now is Janet's "Truth": How did I get here? You'd think I'd know what I did Always worked real hard Maybe I missed something I'm not into pointing fingers Showin' who's right or wrong I just wanna keep it real Cause maybe I was doin' fine on my own Listen: I had a career before now didn't I I had lots of friends before now didn't I And I had my fans before now didn't I And I had my family before now didn't I Guess without you My little life was nothing But don't sweat...
