Old Orchard Beach Maine ~Sept 2010~

August 26 2010

Beautiful August weather today..not hot and humid..just lovely and sunny...cool. The kind of day you long for and don't want to miss, by being to busy to totally enjoy! Though some of Summer is starting to wind down..there is still much beauty and even growth. I need to remember to take the time Now...while I am not working and am able to do what I want at the drop of a hat! No regrets when the time comes for me to get serious about seeking out and hopefully landing a job! So many projects that might not be finished..so many ones yet to be tried..so many places..people.. experiences..



I need to think a bit about these past two years...the years since my work place slowly left me unemployed..slowly just quit being that hustle bustle pharmacy that everyone came to...needed...enjoyed

Are you ready to walk down another street? « Child’s Play!:

"1) I walk down the street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk
I fall in.
I am lost … I am hopeless.
It isn’t my fault.
It takes forever to find a way out.

2) I walk down the same street.
There is a hole in the sidewalk.
I pretend I don’t see it.
I fall in again.
I can’t believe I am in the same place.
But it isn’t my fault.
It still takes a long time to get out.

3) I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I see it there.
I still fall in … it’s a habit
My eyes are open
I know where I am
It is my fault.
I get out immediately

4) I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk
I walk around it.

5) I walk down another street.
