Bird, Rattlesnake, and Rain
I miss the shortgrass prairie. I miss the landscape falling apart into broken red rocks, in a blaze in early September. I miss the scorching sunlight, gusts of wind and low-flying hawks, and chirps from prairie dog towns. I miss abrupt, stony cascades, where no water ever does cascade, except in flash floods.

Water offers many benefits to people's lives and to the variety of things they use in their homes, work or businesses. However, we do not always get clean, clean water for personal, commercial, or industrial use. And this is why today we have water makers and seawater manufacturers, water purifiers and commercial desalination schemes to help us enjoy clean and safe drinking water in our daily lives.

Legend of Today
There was a legend, from a long time ago. When the sun and the moon touched, and the mighty rivers flowed into each other. Time would not be mentioned, except by the movement of the clouds, and the fruit on the trees. The humming bird would sing its tune, so merry and bright, yet swaying from the bees in the dead of night. Coyotes would howl, trying to find their pack, yet the wind chimed to the glory of a smoke stack.

RESET
If you are reading this then we are now living in the year of 2022. Making it this far in life is an accomplishment in itself. I honestly thought we would have flying cars and hoverboards by now. The pandemic has brought all of us an opportunity to look within, rather than looking at the world for answers. It’s given us an opportunity to look more in the mirror, reflecting with our reflections. We all have goals and it’s very important to dream, but it’s also just as important to rest and release the pressures that consume us on a daily basis. You can only dream if you sleep ironically. Recharge, reposition and have patience with yourself. I like to see the beginning of the year as a reset button. Nothing that happened last year matters. Imagine if you treated everyday like this, especially the rough ones. Nothing that happened yesterday matters, all that matters is that you try your best and love what you put out into the world. Do what makes you happy, because all the money in the world won’t fill your void if you are not at peace within. My plans this year are to commit to my growth, and emitting positive energy regardless of what trials come my way. I’m choosing to relax and let everything that is supposed to happen find it’s way to me. Journaling is a form of release for me because I am often overthinking and imagining the worse scenarios. In those intimate moments of writing I am free, abundant, and honest. No one to say that this is wrong or that is right. I look at the pen as my paintbrush, allowing me to be authentic and as imaginative as a child. Storytelling is a fine art and craft that I admire and take pride in. We all have a story, and each of them is important. You are the main character in the storyline. You choose when this page turns. The daily routine of your life creates habits that you want and others you despise. I committed to my daily routine to make sure I feel comfortable in my own skin. I look at our bodies as our true homes. We should all want our house to be nice and neat. Clear that mental trash that’s in your head, recycle your efforts and put it towards doing something productive. It could be riding a bike, giving old clothes to the less fortunate, or even reading a book. Life is an experience that you have a opportunity to do something new every day. Where we can create just as we have been created. I make sure to love myself and the person who I see in the mirror. There use to be times when self love was not a priority on my to-do list. Then I realized it makes a difference in my day to day life. Discipline is needed in this life to reach goals, but if you burn out all your fuel before you reach the goal you’ll never make it there. On the journey pit stops are effective, not only is it a place of rest, its also a point to see how far you came even if you haven’t reached your destination yet. I am open to explore and to adventure, digging deeper into my self discovery journey. Certain things that are within you make you who you are, but it’s also things about you that may surprise and peak your interest. Find those things and share them with the world. The success you seek is right outside your comfort zone!

Prairie Grass and Ocean Waves
In January 1996, we moved from our home on the Mississippi gulf coast to the frigid high plains of Montana. As we pulled into our new home all I could think of was how cold I was. I was born and raised in Florida where walking on the beach was a year-round event. My husband growing up in Illinois knew what cold was and having been all over the world with the Navy knew what to do. He told me to wear layers, and I had not a clue what he meant. A layer in Florida is a velvety chocolate cake, or a t-shirt over your bathing suit, but in Montana it is life or death.
