Happy Anniversary!

You registered on WordPress.com 4 years ago!
Thanks for flying with us. Keep up the good blogging!

When they say “time flies” there’s no doubt!
I honestly can’t believe it’s been 4 years!
I created this blog in 2010, but actually became active in 2011, 
so in my mind, it’s been 3 years. 🙂
All I really want to say is a BIG “Thanks” to all of YOU!

Thank You photo 2013

You who have been with me from the beginning,
joined me in the middle or
who have recently just found me;
You who have been mentors;
You who have encouraged me to continue writing
and lastly, You who have become friends! 

It’s amazing meeting people across the country
and around the world!

world-people
So “THANK YOU” for stopping by in the midst of your busy life.
I appreciate all of YOU and to celebrate,
I give you a hug!

Oh, alright, here’s a few more.
One can never have enough. 🙂

and I hope you continue to enjoy
this little piece of my world.

What if?

What if I just let go
and tried not to care
What would happen
or could I even dare

Would the world’s weight
be lifted from my shoulders
Then to the Heavenly Father
I would feel closer

Would peace finally find its way
into my anxious mind
Am I strong enough to believe
everything would align

How can I relinquish
the control I desire
Be truly faithful to
see what would transpire

I’ll let go and let God
allowing Faith to lead instead
Knowing He’ll take care of me
all doubts and fears will shed

A Gift to Ourselves

On By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Poetry20 Comments

two-hands-holding-a-glowing-heartIf nothing makes sense
and your world seems upside down
teetering on the brink
of emotional upset
Be Kind

If angry feelings harbor
in your leaden heart
tie them to an anchor
let it drop
Be Free

If the force inside your being
is pushing you to the edge
gather strength to offer your hand
take one step back
Be There

A simple act
made effortlessly
will have a loving impact
Two souls will no longer
feel somber
Two hearts will no longer
be heavy

I’m not sure if this would be considered poetry,
but it’s something to think about 
when our emotions are unbalanced.
Wishing you all a bright Monday. xo

Flight

Have you heard your inner voice
urging you on,
“You can do it, there you go,
one step at a time,
You’ll be great, You’ll do fine,
it’s never too late?”

If fear is holding you back,
break free with all your might
If you imagine failure
around the corner,
You’ve let yourself down,
You’ve lost sight

So take that baby step,
begin a new chapter
outside of your box,
to your goals be compliant
and don’t fret about
future stumbling blocks

Cause for celebration
isn’t only about the destination,
Winning the race means
fear has finished in last place
and Succeeding means
You have begun…
