Morning Glow – WPC & DWP

Day 103 – April 13, 2018

I decided today to change my format up a little. I know, I know something changes and mass chaos ensues. However, I am pretty sure that if you did not notice yet, chances are we’re good. In any case, this is a pretty personal post.  I don’t intend it to be a downer.  Quite the opposite actually.  In addition, this is actually the first post I am creating where I am writing the text before I take the photo.  And that is because I know exactly what I intend on capturing. I saw the WPC on Wednesday and have looked forward to having the time to post because the word has so many meanings for me.  And yes it is still very hectic, but now that the show is open I have time to actually breathe a little. But back on topic, the most relevant meaning is the personal battles I have faced over the last couple of years. Battles that have turned my world upside down and in a massive tailspin.  I had lost my way, given into the dark, and lost control of things that I would never have dreamt I would. The climax was a year ago March. Then peaking in June.  The downside had a few bumps, and then a deep low last October.  There was light breaking through through January and from then bright sun.  Thinking I was in the clear, I started to become comfortable again until last month when life decided it wasn’t done yet and pulled the cruelest joke yet.  Talk about sucker punched.  And I know it doesn’t seem like it should be bright, and while I am struggling very hard to get through this, because of the last few months, while I continue to feel the blow daily, it is not as crippling as it would have been a year ago.  I talked about my “reawakening” in this post.  Like the Phoenix rising.  And because of the I know I can handle those demons, and whatever other demons are in store for the future, I will take it one day at a time.  Waking up each day knowing it is a new day, and focusing living for that day, leaving the past behind and saving the future until it is time.  My days sparkle and glisten as long as I remind myself of that mantra.  And that dark cloud that hovers over me, will just have to hover or move on.  Let your heart smile. Glimmer   Awakening

Addendum… I got the picture I wanted, and it was just the way I saw it.  The added refraction off the water as well as the light flares reflect the glimmer of light of each new day! 🙂
