ILL-FATED

I miss you

It was the edge from where I stood when it broke

The fall wasn’t so bad,

enough to dampen checks with tears that stain and prompt rational considerations to which are unwarranted  

You could’ve been the one, 

to grow old with,

share ambitions,

dream with

You should be my best friend

Fate demands otherwise

What a cruel world that is lived denying happiness to one in most need of it

I understand all that you are,

never to change a thing 

I’d dance for you,

till the dawn of time,

if only fate would allow

Instead, 

the edge broke,

and I fell 

BUSY EQUALS PROGRESS

As some have guessed, I’ve been writing, creating presentations, rearranging, and remodeling the website.  Clips have been either added or reorganized, posts are updated, and now working on the layout along with slight changes to the template design. It’s a tiresome task yet, important nonetheless.

You may be happy to know after adding more travel copy, my website traffic more than doubled! Something to seriously consider in the future as I’m working on a piece about my travels to Belize and a cruise to Mexico this winter.

Requests for my services have also increased, adding to the workload but as the title suggests, the busier the better. With the weather soon to be changing, I wouldn’t have it any other way than to be engaged with my work.

I can’t stress enough how much I enjoy writing, no matter the topic. I become so engrossed in the research, the subject matter turns into an awesome story. It amazes me when information is analyzed and then evolves into knowledge that can be related for others to learn.

I’ve recently signed on with a freelance platform where I find myself querying for hours. At first, it worried me that I would find the proposals tedious and daunting but that is not at all the case. With every cover letter written specifically for each gig,  the more exciting it is to be committed to the page.

No longer does the curser on the screen intimidate, causing anxious fits of writer’s block.  Happily, I face-off the empty page and begin my descent to another world, some other mindset, or delve elbow deep into research of a topic I know nothing about yet somehow convince my client I’m their go-to person. Without fail, I deliver and though sleep-deprived, I couldn’t be happier.

I want to thank everyone for the support, old and new to my webpage. This is a great online community to mingle with and I hope to be around the blogging world for a long, long time.

Best Wishes,

~Shell

 

This Life’s Getting Old

Adamant declarations not to start from beginning to end,

simply start

Suppose the end is the beginning,

contrary to the beginning befalling its deadline

Nevertheless, it matters not, as every day commences as it expires

dark

cold

exhausting

If there is something, then why feel nothing

and if it’s aught, then truly everything is lost forever

One’s desideratum is no longer to be misplaced

Still,

it’s an emptiness that’ll decimate

Inceptions are presumptuously  inundated

hope

love

happiness

Ultimately the dreaded darkness arrives and with it,

the unexpected suffocation of all notions to survive

To not start at the beginning would derail the message

allowing mass interpretations, forsaking the original intent

The end will no doubt have many misconceptions and abandonment is inevitable

hollow

tragic

emotionless

Life is stolen,

all is taken and will never be returned

In Memory of Montserrat Caballé

Watch “Barcelona” – Montserrat Caballé and Freddie Mercury 

October 6, 2018, we lost one of operas finest.

A live performance from 1988, Freddie Mercury, of Queen, sings a historical duet with opera star, Montserrat Caballé.

Of all the beauty in the world, none so outshined soprano, Montserrat Caballé. Her voice filled the earth with the sound of heaven. Now, she sings to all in heaven.”    ~Shell de Toni
