shhhh

why do i forget to stop and listen? 

i am consumed each day with thoughts of the future. i don't realize this quiet season in my life where the Lord wants me to be right here, where i am. all those thoughts of wanting more and seeking and seeking, is me. that's all, just me. yes,  those desires of my heart will never go away and He knows. i think i can see the whole picture, His picture, but i am only blinded by my dreams. talking with my sister this afternoon, i was reminded of how this quietness is a time to grow and learn before the next season. i have to realize robert and i will never get these young years back. its just us, you and me babe. so let's enjoy this quiet before the sirens go off.

shhhh
