THE REAL ME

Took me awhile to finally see,
What it would take to find the real me.

Searching for true moments in time,
I began to embrace life that was all mine.

After years of suppressing the real key,
I was happier than ever and I could finally see.

Not knowing if I had the confidence; right or wrong,
My heart was dancing to a brand new song.

I unpacked my camera and planned my day,
It was hours before I ended my play.

The vision arose from someplace so deep,
The photos will be ones that I will always keep.

The more I tried new and fun ways,
Brought me closer to know how I would spend my days.

After all these years of trying to be,
I can say I did find, the real me.

Love Story in Burlington, VT ...

It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move.
