The sun tries to shine! I ran to open the blinds!
Moments came upon me;
Bliss, as shadows cast their mark on this carpet of mine :)
. . . . . . . .
Days upon days without the shine; cloud covered gray skies threaten us with rain; temperatures "below normal" give us intermittent flurries of snow; this last day of March is just fine by me! Bring on April's sun shine!! ("April showers, bring May flowers" ... well, maybe the sun can shine through the showers? ... haha ... it's okay 'cuz with the passing of March, we are one month closer to all those flowers)
I think once more of how "moments" of bliss can put back into your step that hop, skip and jump. I may be questioning these potential employers who seem to find no value in me and send those impersonal, formatted "sorry, we have no use for you at this time" postcards and emails (after a few of these, the self-esteem plummets); I may be losing sleep over whether or not I have enough gas in the car to get to the job I do have every day and how to feed my "growing" 16-year old son and how to come up with $ to send to a "world traveler" daughter 1300 miles away; I may curse everytime I open the front door to find that swinging storm door whose top and bottom arms have detached and walk by fist sized holes a few places in drywall throughout the house, because there is not a man "available" to me to fix such "man jobs"; I may pray every waking second that my health maintains it's "healthy" status due to no medical insurance; and, I may have a few days where I don't "feel like" getting out of bed ... but when the "sun tries to shine", I will always be the first to notice and take it inside of me as another moment of strength and courage!!
So come on April ... you are all mine! Make me dance ... and dance ... and dance ...
About Me

- Terri Anderson O'Byrne
- A Scorpio, I am. Sign of water/sexuality. Emotion. Myers/Briggs personality test resulted INTF (Introvert, Intuition, Feeling, Perceiving) 100% accurate! Only 1% of the world pop. has this personality type; the other 99% has trouble relating to INTF's! I am extremely introverted, can handle noise/crowds for exactly 1 hour before retreating to the quiet or my music somewhere. Oddly enough, I am drawn to customer service. I know these things: I love who I am! I love emotion. I am vulnerable. I care deeply. I love. And I love deeply. I will wait it out for return. I long to be loved. My children are my world. Nature is my solace, my constant, my peace. I hear each bird's tweet, adore shapes in the clouds, share the moon with everyone I know, smile at the song of my windchimes, wonder at the growth of a flower, drive to chase sunsets, enjoy a great storm, relax fully when the ocean is outside my door. My favorite word is dance. Dance represents how I strive to live..to a beat that allows my body and soul to release in rhythm. I am over 50 now. Dance with me ... while there is still time!
