seeking
finding
trying
learning
gathering
an abundance to reflect on this past year of many feathers, cupcakes, spoons, and a new soul
sometimes being so far from home yet not leaving anywhere


learning
trying
finding

seeking a new life within me through untangling the brambles i have caught myself in
i cannot go back
i must follow the star

seeking my soul
finding what He wants from me
trying desperately to always please Him


learning my failings and the strength that comes from this knowledge
gathering memories and losing the moments in time to once again clear the way to seek the star

finding the laughter...
(never too far to look)


my star
not of fame or fortune or greed or something of this world
my star
peace + new year blessings,
