It's Ok go ahead and Day Dream
Have you ever found yourself thinking about times when things are going to be better? Do you long for a time when there will be no pain, sorrow, and outcry? Do you long for situations that do not lead to stress or problems that prevent you from enjoying life? Have you stared off into a distance not particularly focusing on anything, just caught up in deep thoughts or reflection? Do you often wonder how things will be when this old system of things is over? Do you sometimes enjoy thinking of better times and possibilities as you entertain the wonderful thoughts that come after the question …. What If?

The Forgotten Sentinel
It was the first storm of the season. He would have to harvest his garden tonight. Although the small plot had little left to be gathered, his cellar and pantry were full of vegetables that he had been picking all summer and fall. The sentinel looked up and saw the storms approaching, dark and menacing over the canopy of the forest. His basket and house could only hold so much, and he filled the basket deftly with the rest of the carrots.

Corn Maze
No tears, no fears. The never ending turn of these gears. I hope God hears me confess my sins over my years. I've lived my life with no regrets, and now I'm starting to see the effects. We say everything happens for a reason, it's why the leaves fall at the end of their season.
