Some days, some weeks, even some years my life feels like a Carousel. 

Round and round, up and down, faster, faster, yet feeling like I?m not accomplishing anything.

Have you had one of those seasons where you feel like you?re just repeating the same experiences over and over?


???????I selected this cover, this imagery of the 3 horses stepping off the carousel to remind us that we always have choices. 


Let this poem by Portal Nelson inspire you today to perhaps make a new choice.


I walk down the street.

There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.

I fall in.

I am lost... I am helpless.

It isn't my fault.

It takes forever to find a way out.


I walk down the same street.

There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.

I pretend I don't see it.

I fall in again.

I can't believe I am in the same place.

But, it isn't my fault.

It still takes me a long time to get out.


I walk down the same street.

There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.

I see it is there.

I still fall in. It's a habit.

My eyes are open.

I know where I am.

It is my fault. I get out immediately.


I walk down the same street.

There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.

I walk around it.


I walk down another street.
