Contrast

Outside, the air gets warmer; the sun shines again.
Inside feels as cold and dark as a stormy winter's night.
Outside, trees are budding, flowers are blooming, birds are singing; there is life all around.
Inside feels dead, dreary, desolate; but wait... Movement!
Turmoil. Confusion. Creativity colliding with concrete walls in heart and mind.
Must beak free; express tangibly.
Frustration builds as passions tarry behind steel doors.
Outside, spring is in the air, and creatures awake from slumber.
Inside, a bound heart cries out, "God save me!"

I've been feeling a bit blah and uninspired lately, and I came across this website Polyvore stumbling blogs, so I thought I'd try it out and here's what I came up with...

"What's life about anyway", is the question in my mind. Is it about giving all you can to make the word a better place to live? Is it about self-satisfaction and self-gratification; doing what I want and trying to make myself happy? I just don't know.
I look ahead on the road of life and see so many paths I could take; too many choices! Some are broad and straight, while others are narrow and winding. Some go uphill, some go down, and others are hidden by trees and brush. Some look easy to follow with no great destination, while others have ends so inviting, but paths filled with rocks and thornbushes.
I wonder then, is the end really worth the pain and struggle? Seemingly all these roads have tollbooths at their starts and some farther on as well. Many accept a toll greater than I can afford. This does nothing to help my decision, but may even hinder it. Mayhap I have a destiny down one of those roads...
What is my purpose on this earth? Where does my passion lie? Which path do I traverse?

Christmas Poem

Angels bent low one cold dark night to worship the One whom they adored;
A babe, just born in a stable stall, He was Christ, the Lord.
They braved the cold and endured the smell to hear the lusty cries
Of the Child who brought tears of joy to His mother's eyes.

The angels flew to hills nearby to spread the news of joy.
Shepherds were among the first to hear of the baby boy.
The angels watched as some wise men traveled from afar.
On camels' backs they made their way by following a star.

"Surely," All the angels said, "We won't forget the sight
Of the Son of God coming to earth on this cold, dark night."
