Stolen Time

by esdesign10

“It has been said, “time heals all wounds.” I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens. But it is never gone.” — Rose Kennedy Warning: This post is disjointed, spatial and full of reference. It is not meant for children. There is no timeline. Life as I know it has no time line only significant points of reference. My time line was stolen from me. Knowing where to start to… Continue Reading …

I’ve had a million posts running through my mind,  I’ve journaled incessantly, and thought often, that’d make a pretty good post. But, nothing has made it to this page. I don’t know how to do this anymore. Putting my self out on the interwebz again, opens a new can of worms. Otherhand there’s a can of ‘whoopass’ still sitting on a high shelf in the kitchen.
