To travel is to take a journey into yourself.
Life is a blank canvas, and you need to throw all the paint on it you can.

Sylvia Plath Quotes
Love life day by day, color by color, touch by touch.
Hour by hour, day by day, life becomes possible.
Sylvia Plath (1932-1963) was an American poet.
Yesterday Forgotten
Traveling in darkness
Every winding road
Always going uphill
Bearing heavy loads
Filling with emptiness
Sadness ruptures heart
Simply seeking healing
Searching for fresh start
Collecting memories
Hope sheds one more tear
Often feeling numbness
Overwhelming fears
Witnessing tomorrow
Been here once before
Every step well-traveled
Waiting at backdoor
Envisioning sunrise
Source of everything
Yesterday forgotten
Knowing peace shall sing
Pilgrim’s Journey
From 1 Thessalonians 3:11-12: “Now may our God and Father Himself and our Lord Jesus direct our way to you. And may the Lord make you increase and abound in love for one another and for all, just as we abound in love for You.”
Arising each morning
Heart breathes in Father’s love
Praising pilgrim’s journey
Grace follows from above
Standing firm with Father
Hands of patient potter
Shaping this precious day
Mercy’s living water
Overcoming darkness
Light comes from Father’s Word
Taking in wisdom’s breath
Faith strengthened from what’s heard
Accepting Father’s plan
Truth breaks through evil’s crust
Walking in harmony
Submission brings man’s trust
Breaking free from bondage
Christ severs every chain
Paying sins’ debts with blood
In victory, He reigns
From 1 Thessalonians 5:9-10: “For God has destined us not for wrath but for obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us, so that whether we are awake or asleep we may live with Him.”
David Baldacci Quotes
Love is like a good piece of wood: It just gets stronger and stronger as the years go by.
It’s not the beginning or the destination that counts. It’s the ride in between.
[Both quotes taken from The Christmas Train.]
David Baldacci (born 1960) is an American novelist.
Inviting Voices
Wind’s inviting voices
Welcoming from shadow’s past
Harmonizing spirits
Bright skies trying to hold fast
Darkness taking shortcut
Wakening to rising sun
Searching for tomorrow
Ahead of each setting sun
Wind chimes at every hour
Reminding of yesterday
Wishing for better times
Memories’ daily ballet
Today never backtracks
Writing journey’s blessed song
Soaring ahead, true joy
Nature’s essence comes along
Wind gathers final breath
Inviting darkness back in
Following every star
Round of dreams, ready to spin
Monday Memories: Empty Pages
Life begins much like an empty book
Pages waiting as a tranquil brook
How will daily life compose each page?
Breathtaking words at every age
Words starting with childlike, joyful prose
Sentences fill with love, head to toes
Paragraphs arrive, smiling each day
First page finishes, much like crochet
Chapters now gather, picking up speed
Transmission accepts each tender reed
Pages adding up, never afraid
Days, weeks, months, years gather . . . no charade
Life reaches the twilight of its time
Not pausing, not even for halftime
Who will ever read this manuscript?
There’s time to add a final postscript
With empty pages, life’s book began
Words maturing, always in God’s plan

Journey’s Destiny
From Psalm 84:1-2: “How lovely is Your dwelling place, O Lord of hosts! My soul longs, indeed it faints, for the courts of the Lord; my heart and my flesh sing for joy to the living God.”
Future expectations
Journey’s path filled with light
Another page to open
Tomorrow looking bright
Peace dwells in Father’s heart
Journey’s joy hears His Word
Hope’s breath gathers strength from Him
Faith prospers from what’s spurred
Family, friends, career
Journey’s love means much more
Kneeling at cross in prayer
Savior cancels sin’s score
Challenges shall arise
Journey’s road appears blocked
Trust in Jesus sends faith’s key
Salvation now unlocked
Darkness breathing no more
Journey’s destiny bright
Christ delivers victory
Future filled with His light
From Psalm 84:11: “For the Lord God is a sun and shield; He bestows favor and honor. No good thing does the Lord withhold from those who walk uprightly.”
