Ripples in the distance

I stand on the edge of the dock looking at the rippling waves pass by. I wonder where they came from and what formed them. I wonder if I too am just a ripple and how I'm different from the others around me. Lots of self reflection lately it's become quite the topic on this abandoned blog of mine. Even though I don't blog often in the back of my mind I know I have a place to escape to. A place where I can say what I need to say and move on. I wonder if my words are ever seen and a surprise comment assures me that they are seen. Seeing my family over this Thanksgiving break brought a sense of calm to my soul. That's what I love about the holidays. It brings everyone together even if for just a few hours and everyone is happy and at ease. I thank God that my family is close and no matter what we are doing we are just thankful to have each other. What are you thankful for? So I've been watching a lot of movies this break and a reocurring message I've picked up on is that time is precious. Experience all that you want to, leave your mark on this world and make sure to love with everything that you are. I've said before that my life is often like a treadmill well my friends I'm stepping off and making the next step. I have no idea what lies ahead but what I do know is that I have faith and determination to survive through it all. Hope everyone had an amazing holiday! Arrivederci!
