On Silence

autumn_feeling_by_bittersea.jpg

I haven’t posted here in so long that I don’t know if I will be able to subdue my thoughts. I could blame not posting on life, for sometimes life does have a way of sorting through priorities. I could blame it on writer’s block, for sometimes words have a way of freezing up between the fingers and the brain. But I really can’t blame it on either of these excuses. No to be plain and simple, I just haven’t felt like it. I have felt like throwing back my head and laughing at life, like howling with rage at the injustices of the world, but I have not felt like being subdued one single bit.

But why post now, my mood has not changed substantially. Maybe because life has gotten in the way. Some of the worry and anxiety of life and of change has crept through my laughter and my rage. Like the change in the season, my mood has chilled. Not yet the bitter cold but just a bit of frost creeping up the window of my soul.

I know that this will surely soon pass but for now, I plan on putting a soft blanket and curling up here for awhile.

  1. nice to see this pop into my reader…
    i too have a site for this type of thing and haven’t posted for some time…i didn’t want to upset the status quo because things were good…that’s changing slowly as life’s little hurdles slowly mount up though…
    a soft blanket and curling up?
    I like that analogy…very fitting….

    Thanks and hopefully the blanket is fresh out of the dryer. - Fuzz

  2. “…a bit of frost creeping up the window of my soul…” i can relate to those beautiful words, unfortunately.

    lovely post. although it seemed a little painful to produce…and the photograph is fitting as well.

    nice job.

    Maybe a little painful, but that is one reason to be here. - Fuzz

  3. I hear you on that one, Fuzz. Sometimes, we need to just stop and listen - not to the world outside but to our own thoughts and hearts. Get cozy buddy, and fire up a hot toddy to go with it.

    Thanks Annie. Sometimes it is hard but needed. - Fuzz

    Thanks. - Fuzz

  5. That’s the one thing with words sometimes, they can’t be rushed.
    I, too, am glad to see this post but I also know that this blog is different in many ways and I’ve come to expect that updates would be sporadic.
    Personal introspection isn’t something you can throw on like a winter coat.
    I’m with Yvonne on the “frost” passage.
    Very nice.
