Writer on a Horse
And a Dog

The world looks better from the back of a horse and the roads of life are easier with a good dog beside you.

Days are getting shorter


Don't you just hate when DST changes back to regular time and it's dark before 6 and you feel like you need to go to bed by 9 and your body is screaming give me more light, what the heck happened to the sun, I'm going to make you sad because I want sun.

Do you know that is the reason so many people suffer with depression during the winter, because there is less light in a day.

I like the dark, myself... kids say I'm a vampire. I like the light too but I've never minded the darkness. It doesn't cause fear or make me unsure. I've been known to hang out clothes at midnight with just the light of the moon.

I love watching clouds race across the sky on a moonlight night as much as I love watching sunrises and sunsets. If I would allow my Indian blood to guide me I would be a gypsy with no cares.

Lift you face to the storm and let it strip away your layers of useless wants that cling like parasites. As it fury rages, feel the charge of power of it's greatness. You are a speck on the windshield of universe, yet you matter in the universe of your life.

Run at life... don't let life run you.

Pat, I think you are in all my characters now. :) I am totally using something I read here in my so-new-I-can't-talk-about-it-yet wip. Keep talking, girlfriend!

The best part about the dark: the stars!
