full up


full {five minute writing challenge at gypsy mama}

on your marks, get set, go.
for some reason circumstances are the ones that leave me feeling less than.  empty.  longing for more.  but my heart is so full.  i was driving in my car, to the grocery store of all things.  singing at the top of my lungs, windows open, things were perfectly clear.  i'm living in a fairytale dream world.  it's true.  i am living in a fairytale world.  misty rolling hills.  cows wandering down from the pasture.  little homemade treats in my kitchen.  yet one uncontrollable circumstance has all the power.  nagging at me.  threatening like a lightning bolt to end the peace.  and i wonder to myself how can i reach out past the "secret" line?  how can i help someone in need?  how can i use my heart to fill up another's glass, when it is slowly starting to leak?
stop

it's been a busy week over here. i have so many words and they are all jumbled up in my mind with nowhere to go.  it was fun to sit down and just write for five minutes. get unstuck.  have an amazing weekend bloggy friends!  xoxo

  2. (Here from the gypsy mama) I know the feeling completely. To be so full yourself and want to give, but not knowing how. God will show you - He has a plan. :-)

  3. Everyone has their own journey. You can't travel it for them. But you can be there to hold their hand and keep them in your heart.
    You are the very, very best and I hold you in mine.
