Someday

 

Someday this office will be organized instead of a room dedicated to stashing stuff that has no other home.

Someday I will paint the bedroom and cover the aging white wallpaper.

Someday I will stick to my plan of walking every day.

Someday I will travel back to Phoenix.

Someday my kitchen cabinets will be made of real wood and not warped pressboard.

Someday my clothes will fit.

Someday I won’t hurt so much.

Someday old friends will visit me.

Someday my house will be clean as a pin.

Someday this situation will be resolved, and I can have peace in my life.

Someday I will get flowers.

Someday worry will be gone … and anxiety … and irritability.

Someday I will stop practicing invisibility.

Someday I will be peaceful and calm.

Someday I will sit on a grassy hillside overlooking a beautiful City and talk to Him, no interruptions, no feeling guilty for not working, only pure joy.

Someday none of my wishes will matter –

Because I will have arrived.

Have a great day!

Some

 

As the birds sing in the day, I think of some success.

Some success in writing – I’ve done a ton, articles, books, stories, press releases, reports, legal documents, poems, lists, a couple contests …

I think of some health gains, getting back into shape, eating healthier, feeling better …

I remember some exciting moments, my wedding, my graduations, my performances, a few memorable trips, my celebrations, a few accidents, a few stays in the hospital, a couple of health scares, an automotive break-down or two …

I think of some honors I have been given, speaking at the local gathering for the National Day of Prayer, receiving a few awards, a book signing, speaking, teaching others …

And prayers answered … some of my prayers have been answered. It feels like lots of my prayers have been answered, but compared to the multitude of prayers I have prayed it could be considered some.

And some is good

Because some is not nothing

Five Minute Friday is a group of writers who take a word (some) and write about it for five minutes. It keeps you in the writing habit and offers encouragement that only a fellow writer can give.
