"Rejection - again."
by chadwina   


I will continue to fine tune everything...
take risks...
be myself...
and keep going...
I heard once...
that one man had a GREAT idea...
and it took him over 900 times before THEY finally caught on to what was going on.
I too, will not get upset and will keep plugging 900 times if I have to.
I just have to remember...
not everyone sees what I see...
but sometimes I wish they would just open up a little...
and expand themselves...
"Electricity" by Chadwina

Electric power
surging
Connection growing
Fire burning
Close to me
Yet sometimes far away
Nothing can stop this power
Growing between us
The never-ending flames
will continue through us
I feel
a sense of security
and warmth
and love
I love so many things about you
My sweet prince
My rock
Second only to my God
May the future bring
more of you
more of me
more of WE
I love you
The sum of all things down to a
kiss
Electricity through me to you
Shaking
Power
Depth of love
I love you
Deeper than any other
"More to life." by Chadwina

There is more to life than just your world.

I define “your world” as your everyday routines and likes, dislikes, emotions,
feelings, and everything else that you have in your sphere.

Ask yourself what are the day to day things in your world that inspire you and give
you that drive to get up every morning. Really think about it. Is it one thing? 2
things? NO things? Where are priorities in your life. What comes first? What is the
most productive and fruitful things in your life? When is there a line to be drawn
between certain areas of your life that might take over and indulge fantasy rather
than reality?

I know that outside “my” world there is beauty in every person.
Outside there are more people than just me.
Outside there places to see.
Outside there are dreams to dream beyond what I could dream for myself.
Outside there are things worth investing time into.
Outside there are people who need help on a constant basis.
Outside there is no “me”.
Outside there are more things to do with time.

I think at most times we center ourselves around ourselves and don’t want anyone
else to enter our world. We like things just the way they are and until we step
outside of our world – we will never know anything different. I have a friend that
lives this way. He will never grow in certain things…He will never see things different
ways…Everything will remain to his specifications. If there is one thing I’ve
learned…there are MULTIPLE choices we can make…MULTIPLE solutions to
problems…there is always an answer to something. You just may not always LIKE
that answer. Thatz called “suckitupandgetoverit”. (I believe that is chaddie’s
technical term)

You can slap my hand if you want….
There is more to life than status.
There is more to life than jobs.
There is more to life than being married.
There is more to life than the Blue Man Group.
There is more to LIFE in general.

Find a window to peek out of…and you will see what I mean. There is so much
more that you can see, do, experience, learn, eat, hear, love…Keep on pressing
outwards and gathering up things to bring into your world to make it better for
yourself and for others. Don’t compare yourself to others…and don’t always expect
to be the center…step back and let some others shine too. We all have a
light…and itz up to us to help each other discover that light..and SHINE that light.

**end random thought for the day**
Artist Statement:  Experiences in life overlap w/ others...itz a fact that if I've been through something - I want to help
others find an easier way than I did....Not to mention a little SHOVE into the next levels. :D

"Get UP"...by Chadwina

Don't sit there & say "I wish I had this"...

Get out there and learn to do it yourself...

If you want it bad enough...

You are going to have to step out of that comfort zone...

and GROW UP.

Therez no if, ands, buts about it. Do it! Itz time. Go. :)

Yes itz hard...but it gets easier as soon as you do it.

Conquer the fears.

GO FOR IT. :)

written to no one in particular...but can relate to some situations in people that I face or observe every single day...it
can also apply to myself...some of this is stuff I HAVE done...and the payoff is quite kewl...now if everyone realized how
much the payoff is...they would do it...but I guess thatz why you have to "take that step of faith"...I mean, look what
happened to Indiana Jones. :) Only in a leap from the lion's head...boy buddy...he got taken care of! ;) Oh yea, no
more rambling.
"From Passion to Passion" by chadwina

I'm drowning
Lost in a sea
Of melodies and mood

Is that you?
I see you.
You are there.

Power
Emotion
Love

Ripples and tides
Waves
Your love has me drowning
Surrounded
Senses
The tickle on my skin

You are there
Drowning me with LOVE

Sadness into joy
Every fiber tingles with your presence
Love for a child
Loving me

HIGHER!
Soaring through everything
Ever-present peace & joy

Sing in my ear
Whisper secrets
Beautiful
Strings of my heart
Plucked to make a joyful sound

I can't get enough
It will never be enough
Until I know you
Until I have all of you.
"Sometimes I wonder WHY>>>>>"
by chadwina   

Why do people refuse to just believe. Why do most people here on
earth have to have a scientific answer...or logical explanation? It is so
much easier to say...ok...I believe it...I don't understand it...but I believe
it. Itz amazing what concepts the Matrix sparks. The characters
"believed" in Neo. They didn't have to know why he knew what he
knew...or what he did - they just believed and moved on still supporting
him. HELLO.

ITz not that hard but I sometimes think this world we live in has us
programmed per say. We are programmed to only know what we know
in our world and can be oblivious to this other world that exists. And
unless someone reveals that other world to us - we can go on for the
rest of our lives looking for answers. It shows the pursuit of answers can
get you to a new place incorporating one world with another. They both
co-exist. That is what I find interesting now about the Matrix series. It has
this whole concept of 2 worlds battling & colliding all at the same time.
This is the same here in our realities. Some see it, some don't.

The point comes down to choice. In all 3 movies someone had to make
a choice. We make choices here too. We choose to believe or to not
believe. We choose to seek answers...or accept what we can't
comprehend.

I accept the fact we will not always have answers to everything. I like
that. There are things that can't be explained. I love that. I like knowing
that I'm not necessarily in control of my own life. I make decisions, but
ultimately I'm headed towards one destiny and one purpose. ITz the
journey that matters. Itz the journey that is the great part of life.
"Words 5" by chadwina

You touch me in the deepest
place of my heart

Only you can truly know me and
what I'm worth in your eyes.

Only in your eyes am I truly
worthy of your love.

I am limited
I am small
I cannot comprehend all that you are

What do I need to do next
To know you more?

What do i have to do in
order to love you more?

My heart and mind see
what eyes can't.

Limitless faith
without seeing
Knowing you are in control
Knowing you love me more
than anyone here could

I can only fall
Fall into your love
Everlasting.
"Words 4" by chadwina

I feel the pain of others
I'm starting to see
What you saw.

I'm only beginning
The journey is forever
with you by me
Nothing can stop me.

The hate
The pride
The pain

Only your love can
truly help me
and others.

How can I live without you.
To not have you here in my
Joy
Sorrow
Love
Hate
Thoughts of you
Dreams of you
Dreams from you
Desires
Destiny
Your light is love
Your love is consuming
Your spirit is fire
I'm thirsty
I'm hungry
for your love.
"Words 3" by chadwina

I'm struggling
to make sense
of what is to come

Why should I worry
When all giants can be under my feet
They ARE under.
They are no match for me in you.

Stop fretting already
FALL!
Let go of the illusion
I'm not in control
He is.

What am I doing
What am I becoming
How do I find that next step
Where is that next place
That level.
Level beyond comprehension

Keep me focused
on that narrow path
I don't mean to stray
I'm coming back
You mean more
You are more
More life
More love
You ARE love
Teach me.
"Words" by Chadwina

To see your face
To know your face
To feel your grace

I cry
My heart aches for you
Your presence illuminates

How can I grow
How can I know
You look through me with love

I'm struggling
with the thoughts
that only you can confirm
the truth.

Why can it be so hard
to just fall
Fall into you

To spend time apart
does me no good
I must have you
to get through

Your love is the only thing
I desire
Nothing else should matter
Nothing else should get in the way

I'm striving to love you
I'm longing to be beside you
To see you
To love you more.
