Small hours

Up in the small hours, when others are sleeping and the moon just peeking through the clouds slowly getting myself sorted.

The kettle rumbles and burps it's way to another cuppa I find at this hour one does things a little slower.

Checking off a few things on what I need to get sorted, got to make sure I don't forget something.

The channels have a few good things on but other shows are like what the ....

As I came back in from the coast I now find myself a few days latter
watching the rain splatter it's self on the ground as another day
where the clouds have decided to see how many drops they can send our
way.

Life along a wild shore...

As a wave roles in from the strait I find myself watching the slip back of the white foam on top, it crests than falls over its self dropping apon the wind swept sand .. Falling back and retreating to repeat the cycle again.

As the wind tugs at my hair I turn head inland leaving the crashing of the waves behind and the call of that lone gull.
I find it strengthening to watch the wilds of nature, helping me to put things in perspective as at times lately I have found a lot missing in my life with a few things that have gone wrong and my soul drifting into places it should not go.

As I climb up through the bush and follow the trail that takes me up along the headland a slight chill sets in, time to be closing to home I think a logged fire and loved ones.

Sayings

Time Passing along a Wild Shore

Work of fiction:

Now im not a writer and some of what may follow may well be not worth reading but ive always wanted to write and well I thought why not try and build something that is based in a part of the world that I live. 
Im going to try and base this story along the wild shores of Wellington's South Coast and life along the coast .... 
Now at times im sure things will branch out to the rest of the country and the rest of the world because I guess I will try and blend it in with my own life, 
I hope it ends up being something worth reading and hey if you would like to comment I would love to get the feedback and hey who knows I may try and mold the story around the comments:

Anyway just working on Chapter 1# will post it soon.....

Letting Go:

Ive just been having a quiet morning this morning and you know one thing that is slowly taking hold with me due to well getting no contact from someone who is still very dear to me, is that i think it is time to let go, it is time to move on as i feel i am looking really silly at the moment. 

I think i fell so hard as well I felt like I had a family and would and i feel always will do anything for them. 
I have been looking over where things went wrong and i know with in my heart in someways i was trying to do the right thing i feel i just did not look at the bigger picture which is a fuck up but i think i am going to have to let go and move on or i am never going to pull myself out of this.

Its a pain when ones heart is involved i tell you and hurts like a bastard but hey life is too short to be dragged right down and when things do get bad hold onto something that is true and real, for me it has been the sunsets, for me it has been a friendship from someone that has stuck by me through thick and thin.

I think i know i need to move on or i am going to loose everything. its going to hurt for a long time, but look dont let everything go for the sake of giving up, you know i think something hit home to me today as i felt last night night well ending it all. 
But than i know i could never do that as i made a promise to someone along time ago that i would never break.

Hey look life is a bitch at times, i think one just has to click to the fact that among the bad things there are so many good things that are not worth loosing. 

I will always love the two people in my life that I am happy we knew each other for the time that we did but i know if i dont sort my shit out i run the risk of going to far down that i will not be able to bring myself back, i know with in my heart i dont want this, as i love what one can see in this world and be involved in. 

There are special things that come your way and always will be, 

When this happend to me to some degree back in my past I went to Vancouver, and spent time there and well love the place and always will. i watched the snow falling out side the library there.
I took the ferry to Vancouver island, on a rough day when snow was falling on the deck outside and you know i bloody loved it the heart healed and well i grew stronger. 
I thought i would never get my life back together but i did as i hung on to things that were special to me and it looks like i will be doing that again this time. 

I feel this time it will be quicker as i have a very dear friend in my life and i have people who do respect me at the airline, though i will admit at the moment i am struggling to still like the airline at the moment as i feel i put the airline before well love and that is something i never wanted to do. 

It gets to me at times that i feel all people know me for is the airline, where as i hope i would be more than just the airline. 

I dont want to hate the place as I love what we do there and I know we do it well but than i think hell is this all i am ?

I know i will have to sort this out and I hope to over the week that I have taken off to do so with the help of a true friend, lyall bay and photos i know i will fly again so to speek. 

I know I should have not let this hit me so hard and in someways I have been really stupid that I have, I feel with in my heart that I really was in love, that i really had found my soul mate but than to have things go so wrong due to some things i had done and other events i kind of let it all get on top of me. 

time to start climbing that mountain again, it is going to take some time as hell i dont want to get hurt again i really dont so i feel i am starting from the bottom of the mountain again over this week its going to be a slow climb, but i know i will get to that summit again just take time and love for myself and trust in myself and love from those close to me. 

So in writing this i feel i am putting in those starting ropes to start the climb slowly back again ..... 

Putting it all down:

Well, im not to sure what i am going to say here, but i think this is
to be the start of a rebuilding i guess as due to things alot of my
own making, It has been a very hard couple of weeks in that I guess I
feel i put myself so far out there and well in the hope it would all
work out doe to some bad decisions i ended up i feel loosing it all.

That maybe a very extreme thing to say but it is what it has felt like
and look i know its part of life and i guess i will always hold on to
hope but i also have to start rebuilding who i am and who i am proud
to be.

Falling for someone i tell you is the best thing in the world dont get
me wrong and i would never say dont if your heart is telling you to
walk that road do so as who knows it is the best thing in the wold i
tell you but what i would ask if you do don't make the errors i made
along the way as you can end up loosing it all and that hurts like a
F*CK i tell you.

Don't asume, just be there love and trust as they are two of the most
important things in life that one can ever do.

Hey there are going to be some hard times but heck if you get through
the hard times the good times are going to be wonderful.

Now make sure you are there to listen and just well be there, i know
this sounds like i am just telling myself i think in well sorting
things out for myself writing this down is a way of getting it out in
the open so i tell you i dont mind if this is not read by anyone and i
would totally except that.


I think i will aways hold a special thought for two people who are
very dear to me, and hey i do hope with in my heart one day that we
will talk ..
I think ill write more to this as i sort myself out and rebuild who i
am but i think in the long run i would have to say if you love someone
put them first !


anyways enough of my ramble for now.

Best office in the world
