BeCreative, Photos & Musings from Wade
Photos, philosophy and things I find interesting in and about life.
Amazing how simple things can change your outlook. Simply look around yourself and discover what makes you smile.
These things need to be attended to.
It is almost 1:00 a.m. so I am off to attend to someone who makes me smile and make sure she keeps warm while sleeping.
In my next life I want to live my life backwards. You start out dead and get that out of the way. Then you wake up in an old people’s home feeling better every day. You get kicked out for being too healthy, go collect your pension, and then when you start work, you get a goldwatch and a party on your first day. You work for 40 years until you’re young enough to enjoy your retirement. You party, drink alcohol, and are generally promiscuous, then you are ready for high school. You then go to primary school, you become a kid, you play. You have no responsibilities, you become a baby until you are born. And then you spend your last 9 months floating in luxurious spa-like conditions with central heating and room service on tap, larger quarters every day and then Voila! You finish off as an orgasm!
I rest my case.

Now is your chance to give it a try. Good luck!
The light comes and goes
Darkness falls, darkness will lift
Sunshine warms my soul
I cried tonight
One tear
I don’t even know why for sure.
I lay in bed after an all to short rest
And there it was
Is it the slow and steady realization of the possibility of lost love
That I have feared in my soul may never be, no matter what my heart feels
or
The desire for a relationship that seems so far away
always just out of reach, so close, but not close enough
In the long run it does not matter
Tears fall
thoughts flash across the pages of my mind
so fast I can not keep up
a never ending litany of images, words, thoughts, fears, wants, desires, goals, objects obtainable, objects unobtainable, more things than I can list here they fly so fast never allowing easy rest always keeping me awake until the crash of exhaustion hits simply because in my mind I am lost and have no direction in my life right now only the never ending stream of thoughts to keep me running far into the night with little escape because comfort is so far away and the emptiness and isolation overwhelms me at times leaving a shell of who and what I know I should and can be.
No rest, only exhaustion
opening the door for the pain
is the pain caused by internal strife
or does it cause it… the chicken or the egg
Help me my friends, I am incomplete
Not what you think
——————–
The crush of LIFE
Weighs heavy on me now
so much stress
so much pressure
The relief I have is needed
the time is all good
and appreciated
and loved
The lady I know
touched me in surprising ways
let the touch go on.
love, pain, lust, longing
a relationship evolves
beyond what I thought
to continue growth
is a constant need for all
all must not be still
to touch and feel now
will keep me dreaming of you
and thus only yours
We all do what we can
to get to where we need to go
Everything flows as it must
The question we all need to ask is…
are we going to go with that flow
or paddle against it.
Life is much easier when we simply flow
But is that really the best path?
My experience is, usually no.
The easy way is just that, too easy.
We need to work on things in life in order to grow and become who we need to be. If we remain stagnant then how do we learn anything, experience new opportunities and find what else there is in life. Meeting challenges is part of what keeps me going. But some challenges are just too much. We need to decide which streams to paddle against. One thing I need to do is evaluate just this. One of my objectives is to let those I am involved with know exactly where I am headed, as it pertains to them. I have been doing so with vigor and true feeling with some, and have just begun with some others. If you are one of those I have opened to then you know what I am talking about. If I talk to you someday and say I want to have a conversation then you know what is coming 🙂 It will never be something bad, but just a clearing of the cobwebs in my head. The release of these stresses is something that I am working on to alleviate my headaches.
Wish me luck, and pray for me.
A sweet song that makes me feel warm for some reason

This was given to me by a very wise friend. I don’t know where it originated, but I feel the roots of this are based upon a strong Zen foundation.
Good advice, that is very timely.
Romantic song… in a cheesy kind of way. It just makes me smile 😀

Every time you take a sip
In this smoky atmosphere
You press that bottle to your lips
And I wish I was your beer
In the small there of your back
Your jeans are playing peekaboo
I’d like to see the other half of your butterfly tattoo.
Hey that gives me an idea
Let’s get out of this bar
Drive out into the country
And find a place to park.
‘Cause I’d like to see you out in the moonlight
I’d like to kiss you way back in the sticks
I’d like to walk you through a field of wildflowers
And I’d like to check you for ticks.
I know the perfect little path
Out in these woods I used to hunt
Don’t worry babe I’ve got your back
And I’ve also got your front
Now, I’d hate to waste a night like this
I’ll keep you safe you wait and see
The only thing allowed to crawl all over you when we get there is me.
You know every guy in here tonight
Would like to take you home
But I’ve got way more class than them
Babe that ain’t what I want.
‘Cause I’d like to see you out in the moonlight
I’d like to kiss you way back in the sticks
I’d like to walk you through a field of wildflowers
And I’d like to check you for ticks.
You never know where one might be
There’s lots of place that are hard to reach
I gotcha.
I’d like to see you out in the moonlight
I’d like to kiss you baby way back in the sticks
I’d like to walk you through a field of wildflowers
And I’d like to check you for ticks.
I’d sure like to check you for ticks…
