It is raining today, and I find myself wishing I had a comfortable porch with a little bench to just sit and watch the rain fall. No worrying about work or deadlines. No congested noise of the busy world.

The rain feeds the earth, and it drowns out the business of life.
It carries with it great power. Bringing peace to anyone who will listen.

To sit and listen to the rain, looking into those eyes and running my fingers through her hair.

Yes, It's the attraction to one another. It's the laughs.....the discussions......certainly the kisses. But there is something we have that is unique above all else. There is an understanding between us......one that even we cannot properly explain to others when asked.

It's just there.....and it's GREAT!!! : )

My walk back from classes was great. The sidewalk heading towards ring road was a river with the snow runnoff from the fields. I couldn't help but think of hiking in the mountains. I recieved a number of odd stares from people watching me walk right down the center of this little river.

Most were stumbling to avoid the water and scrambling to hide their red faces from the somewhat frigid wind. I imaging it was an intriguing sight to see me splashing right through smiling with my face in the wind ; )

I find many things I can always count on
I can count on myself to get through
I can count on some friends, while others I find not
I can count on family for love, support, and trouble.
.........
I could make such a long list

I can count on never fully figuring you out.
I need not figure you out, but only to count on you.

Lonely....

......goodbye

Why is nothing easy anymore?
When did things get so complicated?
Why can't I seem to get what I strive for?
