Are you wild at Heart?
I bet many of you are!
But, I must say the wild and yearning in my life;
Is much tamer as the years have come and gone in my life.
I prefer a comfy place to tend to my thoughts and ambitions.
I read about great adventures and daring feats.
But I feel safe in my world of predictable.
I'm not talking about the unexpected things in life that
no matter who or where we are will to be affected by!
But, I do not take risks that are unnecessary anymore!
Driving in rain storms and climbing high up into the mountains.
I prefer the tranquil country road!
I feel like Winnie the Pooh
I want my honeypot and to get out of the blustery day!
But, I am still young at heart!
I sometimes look into the mirror and wonder
Who that old lady is??
But alas it is me older and wiser
And filled with a deep down contentment mostly.
The unrest comes when I read or watch those things,
That try to show me there is something better or more for me!
I want to see more of this amazing world.
But traveling anymore seems like so much work.
So I will just have to live adventerous in my own backyard!
This day and your life is made up of living fully
One at a time...
This is me now!
Live and enjoy this day!!
Find comfort in those small cozy places;
in your heart and your home!
Blessings, Roxy
I have always loved to travel, unlike anyone else in my family. My Hubby and I have always enjoyed camping with our kids and yes, even international trips. In fact, he traveled in the middle east, Africa and Europe extensively for his job and enjoyed meeting new people and learning about their cultures. Hefound many, many brothers and sisters in Christ and they have remained in touch even after his retirement. When I'm home, I have no desire to go anywhere, but once I leave the "nest", I enjoy myself, however I'm always ready to get back home.
ReplyDeleteI think that God puts that "homing" instinct inside of us. It is what makes us long for our Heavenly home. I want to travel there soon.
Blessings and hugs,

I'm a Pooh bear too.
ReplyDeleteI prefer to wander in my gardens.
Pick fruit from my trees,enjoy the bluebirds and cardinals splashing in my birdbaths.
Read a book sitting on my porch with a cup of tea.
The good thing about aging is you
come to know who you really are.
What is truly important to you.
