Summer Days

Days are long and bright
Sticky sweat is pouring off of me
Summer heat is here

Time to go cool off
A refreshing swim is great
Or a trip to the beach

Rain cannot be found here
A drought is upon this land
May cooler days come

Farmers have their crops
Produce is in season now
Fresh, ripe food is here

Fall is on its way
Back to school sales are here
Vacation will end

A Self Written Truth About Comfort Zones - Another Non-Poetic Post

“Being self imprisoned by your own self-imposed limitations is not a healthy or happy way to live.”

I wrote this quote to some online friends to describe how my own "comfort zones" are limiting what I do rather than making my life better. Living in my own prison causes me to live in fear of ridicule and does not allow me to be myself when around many people.

I think it is time to me to start redefining my level of "comfort" and to break out of my own prison. Going to focus on that over the foreseeable future in my writing here and in my life.
