The Dream Will Come True

Damn it’s already 12 o’clock in the afternoon. But to be honest I don’t get up till around 9:30, so there you go. With my sinuses giving me a fit last, it’s a wonder I even slept at all. Still I got the morning laundry done and went and voted early this morning in the Georgia primary. There are definitely some pluses to living in a rural area especially when it’s the county seat. Things like being close to the courthouse, tax office, and the county elections office. I know this may all seem boring, but for the residents of a rural location it’s a dream come true. 

Last month it looks like my dream of living here might end abruptly. But with the payment of this months rent at least I brought myself another month. I know a lot of my readers have opinions and advice. But to be honest until I walked in another person’s shoes. All the words in the world don’t mean a hell of a lot. Still the scent of the laundry on the line is giving off a pleasant scent. While the EMC guys next door are shuckin’ and jivin’ with each another while having lunch. With the sunshine, the breeze, and the fresh cut grass, it’s making for a peaceful day. 

The thing is I’m not sitting here trying to avoid anything. It’s just that I’m pacing myself for the inevitabilities that are going to come. Like the fact the my family may not be able to live here forever. But it’s totally counterproductive to my or anyone else’s wellbeing to tie myself up in knots about anything. So I this moment while I wait to jot down my thoughts. I focus on the here and now and the things I can control. Like my attitude, my fear, and my peace of mind. Don’t like fear hold you for hostage too long. Express your emotions, forgive yourself, and let go. For someday the dream will come true.
