Strength on the Horizon

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

You may not always feel it, but you are stronger than you think.

Look at where you are today, it wasn’t always easy, it wasn’t always a piece of cake.

You have fought through many battles, and you have stood your ground.

Look at where you are today, you are stronger than you think.

Yesterday, you may have been full of more motivation, but now here you are, you have gained more momentum, and now you have more power and distance, as those past battles are moving further and further away.

Look at where you have been before, lost and fighting, forever wondering what would come from all the war.

You are here now, a fighter, a warrior, you are stronger than you think.

Look at the clock, it ticks without looking back, unknowing of anything except each tick forward, but you can look back, and you can look to the horizon, if you need more hope, for there is always more strength to come, on the horizon.

You have come this far, you have made it here, let it all be and let that worry go.

You are stronger than you think.

Don’t Stay

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

Don’t stay.

You can survive on your own.

You don’t need him.

You are capable without her.

If he puts you down, walk away.

If she hurts you again, shut that door.

Walk away.

Don’t stay.

Get out of town.

Do whatever you need to do, to be okay.

Do it for him.

Do it for her.

Most of all, do it for you.

Don’t stay.

Love Lost in the Woods

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

I hear you….

You call my name.

Sometimes I think I see you, maybe your shadow… but then it’s gone just as soon as it appears.

I wish I could feel you…

I want to know your warmth…

Your smells…

Your sounds…

These woods are thick with nature.

The trees go on and on, for what seems like, forever.

I miss you, yet we have never met…

How I have longed for you, my love, lost in these woods of a million trees.

Though, I have survived and grown, preparing to be with or without you, amongst these trees that have protected me for so long.

When it’s late and dark, and I can’t seem to fall asleep, I try to imagine who you are.

How you look.

How you talk and move.

What you might wear.

Oh these woods…

These woods could surely tell you about me…

How I hunt, and survive.

How I heal and grow.

What I find for shelter, and how I talk to nature.

These woods could sing to you, from my heart.

They are the very soul of me.

These woods, they have healed me.

When I find you, you will see, we will feel lost in the middle of these deep woods, but never really be, for we will have each other.

When I find you, my love, we will finally be free.

Gone

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

There you were, walking in the fog.

We had been apart for so long.

It felt like a lifetime has passed by, since you’ve been gone.

Though, there was no embrace.

There was no tear in your eye, not even a drop that would make its way down your face.

It was as if you were different.

Your heart had changed.

My heart seemed to go silent, no longer could I feel its beat.

My lungs were waiting, desperately, hoping to again, soon, be able to breathe.

It was as if we could no longer be.

As I stood before you, there was a silent storm starting to thunder inside of me.

You turned away.

I couldn’t find the words to ask you to stay.

You were gone.

Here

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

I wanted to be here, this is where they told me to be.

They said I would do well here.

They told me this was where I was meant to be.

I waited and tried.

Gave it my all, even when I felt like each time was my last, again I tried.

I listened and followed, then I realized…

I cannot follow.

I must learn for myslef.

I must find a new place.

That was a big truth to swallow.

To be here, to understand…

To feel free, to be able to independently stand…

I finally get it.

I finally understand.

I am always exactly where I need to be.

Yes, here, but also, not where they told me I should be.

Here is within me.

Here is wherever I am, wherever I need to be.

This is Your Life

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

Has anyone ever told you that this is your life?

Have they told you that you don’t have to accept anything that is not good for you?

Do you know that you can walk on your own path, with nobody else’s permission?

Did you know that you don’t need anyone’s advice unless you ask for it?

Nobody needs to give you directions.

You can choose your own destination.

This life is yours.

It is only yours.

You can invite others to join you, but you don’t need to if you don’t want to.

You have a choice.

You have all of the control.

Where will you go?

What will you do?

Whatever it is, wherever you go, I hope that you have the life that you choose and the experiences of your dreams.

You deserve all of it.

Enjoy your life.

This is your life, live it how you want to.

Waiting

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

Life seems tough, when all you feel like you are doing is pushing and waiting.

You don’t know where you are going, or how you will get there.

You are patient, though it isn’t always easy.

You are waiting, yet working so hard, trying to get to a place, somewhere you don’t even know if it exists in real life or just in your head.

It feels like all you can to is to keep on pushing and waiting, hoping, one day, something good will come from it all.

The day comes to an end and you are so tired.

You have put in the time.

You have put in so many hours.

There is a light at the end of this tunnel, and it is going to show you that all the waiting was worth it.

You will see.

There is so much beauty coming for you.

Keep on going.

Keep on pushing.

Continue to have patience.

Your time is coming.

Just like waiting for the sun to set, having patience and persistence always pays off.

There is beauty after all the waiting.

You will see.

There is more for you, here.

There is so much more for you to see.

Simple Shell

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

I see you there, all alone.

You may feel broken, but you are mostly whole.

You have traveled so far, just to land right here.

There is beauty in your simplicity.

A delicate elegance in how you are just simply here.

You seek nothing, yet you have a all you need.

A life of solitude.

A life of peace.

You have done well.

You are more than just a simple shell.

A Flame in the Wave

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

It came at us like a wave, full of passion, full of life.

There was a fire inside of us.

A burning flame, one that not even a wave could wash away.

With each wave from life, , it would just reignite.

A fire so bright, not even time could dim.

If the waves carry us away, back to each other we will always swim.

A flame in the wave of life, that is what we are.

Life has kept us apart, though we won’t always be so far away.

Only time will show us what will be left, as we have to accept life and let go.

Only time will show us, if this flame is able to grow, while we have to stay apart, for a little while longer.

No matter how long, no matter the distance, we won’t ever truly be apart.

I’ll be here waiting, keeping the fire burning in my heart.

Lake Crescent (and the Lodge)

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

This lake is a magical lake.

The waters heal you.

The sunsets will astonish you.

Lake Crescent is not just a simple lake.

To know her beauty, you must feel her healing.

Summertime is, seemingly, the best time of year to capture her magic, but all year round she will be carrying on…

So many come to see her.

Once they do, they are mesmerized.

With ducks, docks and a shore full of soft rocks, you can be certain to find your favorite spot.

Lake Crescent Lodge is most certainly divine, with luxury dining and quaint little cabins, you will find many ways to pass the time.

There is so much room to roam, plus immaculate sights to see this beautiful lake, from multiple points of view.

If you walk along the forest line, you will find many trails to explore.

These lead you to some of the oldest trees in the state of Washington, or so I have been told, some are over five-hundred years old.

If you’re reading this and need a new place to explore, Port Angeles, WA has this stunning beauty, who’s shores you might enjoy taking some time to explore.

Plus you might even discover the magic of this beautiful lake, that has so many perplexed about.

Either way, hopefully you do get out and find somewhere new to explore.

Nature is magical, no matter where you are.
