in the middle of my daze
confidence fades; and I feel like low
do what I love, a quick message to
up above. Save my life tonight
sure of my glass; this wine not enough
appearing tough, fading fast
I watch my life just pass, foot heavy on the gas
I wish for romantic love, a second message
to up above. save my life tonight
Please.

“Stop signs for me are a kind of hectic, achey, ‘tired & wired’ feeling. When I push myself I sometimes feel the energy leaking away like sand sliding faster through an hour glass, or a the air from a punctured tire. That’s when the Shoulds start: “I should have the energy to do this, I should meet my commitments, I should know better than to overcommit”. , I’m learning to respond with, “hang on, I SHOULD respect my natural limits, even when chasing my dreams, & other people should respect the boundary of my health & wellbeing”.

i challenge myself
30 days here, 30 days there
keep my writing muscles firm
that’s how I learn
what I do like and what I don’t
the likes on the post, won’t
deter me or steer me in a direction
I don’t wanna go
that’s if you wondered
now you know.

looking up
after being down so long
get off the phone
only comparisons lurk
when will I learn?

what is doing too much?
safe, content, timid
….but does it make you feel alive!

Did I tell you when I was going to save the Fox network with my soap opera concept?Back in the 90s I wanted to write the next great American daytime soap opera to save the Fox network! Did the network need saving? Maybe or maybe not.
I would pull actors from the nighttime soaps and I would take the most popular characters that were written off the other soaps and invite them on my show. The show would feature storylines that focus on minorities and their lives.
See ABC, NBC and CBS had daytime dramas. Why not FOX?! I had a notebook full of storyline possibilities. I subscribed to the Soap Opera Magazines to know who was leaving their shows . To know what storylines were coming and ending. How could I improve upon what already had been done?
Then the 00’s hit and the networks started canceling the soaps one by one for talk shows and cooking shows and more news. I tossed my notebook to the side. There wouldn’t be anyone buying a daytime soap or even a nighttime soap if it didn’t include supernatural elements.
Today there are only 4 left. 1 on ABC, 1 on NBC and 2 on CBS. Not great, but what is good is that streaming channels have increased with channels all over the place who need content.
Shall I search for my notebooks from years ago and retool my concept? I have much knowledge that I didn’t have before . Is this my time to shine…..
Would you watch?
Manifesting greatness starting in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1….
