Guided by prompts from WDC blogging challenges... and of course, life

HI! I'm Jenn - and I'm all over the place (well, at least my mind is). In this blog, I have attempted to gather my thoughts on things prompted/inspired by WDC blogging challenges from "Journalistic Intentions"

, "The Soundtrack of Your Life"

, "Blogging Circle of Friends "

, "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS"

and, well, LIFE.

Signature for those who are nominated for a Quill Award in 2021

In response to "What Goes Up Must Come Down"

Hey, My heart goes out to you. I can relate. I'm Bipolar also. They diagnosed me as manic-depressive years ago, but it still took years for a diagnosis. I'm doing much better these days, but still have my highs and lows. The combination of Lexapro and Abilify has been the greatest help. I've tried a lot of different medication combos, and I have to say that just adding Abilify has helped me greatly!

My furbabies are everything to me. They're always near. I have two terrier-mix little girls. I wouldn't even want to think of what life would be like without them. They may be dogs, but they're good for hugs, cuddling, and talking to. They've been with me through thick and thin.

You're so right, they are definitely perceptive. They know when you need extra attention, and they know when to keep an eye out for you. They are definitely a blessing from God.

If you ever need to talk or just rant, feel free to write me.

I hope you're feeling better.

Thanks for reading and understanding, it means a lot. And I agree, my fur-boys are definitely gifts from God too!

LeJenD, you're not by yourself. I've battled depression in cycles throughout my life so far. I think in some ways, it's hereditary. As an adult, I have become convinced, that my Mom had undiagnosed Bipolar Disorder. When she was feeling "good," she'd take my brother and me to "the big town" to play all day. When she was feeling "bad," I had my hands full counseling her for hours. Who knew that wasn't a teenager's job?

Poetry has become such a balm for my soul. The depression is still there, but it seems to bring some level of relief when I put my feelings down in a poem. Amazingly enough, some of my best poetry has been written when I was depressed. The Lord has graciously given me the gift of poetry.

BTW, dogs are quite perceptive animals. Mine is lying on the floor near me as I write. I think she's a gift from God, too.

Ballet of the Leaves

DAY 3215 September 2, 2021
Prompt: “Autumn leaves don't fall, they fly. They take their time and wander on this their only chance to soar.” ~ Delia Owens
Use this quote to influence your entry today.

As soon as the tree let loose,
the leaf began its final journey.
At the mercy of the Autumn winds,
it floated gently;
hither and yon
toward the ground far below.

Others were falling around it
each with a jig of its own.
Passing by its companions,
it acknowledged them with a wave.
And continued on
with its whimsical ballet.

Surfing from current to current
the leaf danced upon the breeze.
executing loop-de-loops
and summersaults
twirling, whirling, pirouetting,
waltzing with the wind.

Until gently it landed
amongst a pile of its fellows.
So much delight taken in this flight
on this, its final day.
