My Journey
Mood: Thinking...Good afternoon everyone,
I just realized that it has been quite some time since I have updated my page here. A lot has happened in my life since I wrote last:
The Iceland volcano shut down the United Kingdom, which stopped Eileen Daley from being able to fly over here for the final filming of the movie 'Beauty is Only Skin Deep' I will not release the film without her in it, so it has been placed aside until there is another opportunity. The direction I want to go from now on is to to focus on the writing side and to not put on so many hats at once. I have a couple ideas for this project and will talk more about that later.
I have been placed as the lead for the Natural Resources section for the Sate of Maine for Agriculture, Conservation & Forestry. It is a really awesome computer programming position. This September I am going to be taking a Database Management and Design class at the University of Maine at Augusta. This finally gets me back on track to achieve my 4 year degree in Computer Science. At 44 years young, this has turned into a milestone achievement that I will accomplish.
I am still working on my children's stories and have been quite successful with them in the Central Maine area. This Fall I have been asked to read at most of the area schools. It is an awesome feeling to have a live audience like this. I am working on a special project that will take these to the next level. More to come on that at a later date.
A friend of Mine who is an amazing poet looked at my poem 'This Old Man' from a poets vision and gave me some really good advice. I am editing that poem and will be resubmitting it today. The edits are subtle, but I think they will make the poem stronger.
I will make more o an effort to come on this page and look at all of the amazing works that I can, as well as share more of mine. I am reaching the end of week one of my two week vacation and look forward to a 6 hour boat ride off the coast of Maine tomorrow. I hope to spot a whale and other amazing sea life while we are out there.
I hope this post finds all of you well..

| Thank you for taking time off of yours to read my poem "The Last Terminal" you're actually right on to what I was trying to stress out... I was in the moment remembering the time I almost died and how the mind rewinds to peaceful times. Thanks!

| You are so right oN! People desire this spice because most unfortunately, are unaware of their own ego controlling their physical and mental being. We are to be, that's it. Live within each breath and focus on the now; the current moment in which we are. I really wanted to conceptualize this. Duality of reality was close, but it still needs a lot of work to really nail the true depth of what I was trying to get out. I appreciate your comments. Could you imagine a world where all people had blank minds and no judgements? A clean slate every moment to experience joy in its true form. Wow....... If only. Thanks for reading my gibberish. 😊

| Thank you for your comment on episode #1 of the Poets' Abode.
This was a bit of satire written from a personal experience (on this site). Rather than letting it bother me, I decided to turn it into something humorous. It took on a life of its own - and I just went with it. That being said, I didn't let the threats and other negative comments dissuade me from continuing to write - on the contrary, it made me want to write more :) Funny how that works. I have other episodes in mind, I just need a little time to digitize them... Again, thank you for taking the time to read and to comment! K |
