Lost in the forest - Short interpretive story

I walk through the forest without direction embracing nature at it's finest.  I am surrounded by trees.  The water flows down the streams.  I come to a fork in the road.  Do I turn left or go right?  Where will the path take me?  I go with my gut instinct and go left for either path with lead me to a different destination.  I continue to walk, it is getting dark.  All I can hear are the birds, the stream, and the sound of my feet.  I start to worry for I am alone in the forest and it is getting darker by the minute.  I tell myself that I will be fine and start to walk faster.  Eventually I come to an opening in the forest.  I breath a sigh of relieve for I have found my way home.  I run towards my house for it is truly a place to call home.

Nature-poem

The gentle breeze touches my skin.

The sound of autumn leaves being crushed beneath my feet.

I love how the leaves change color at this time of year.

I feel at peace, grateful for this moment.

The creatures of the forest are a pleasure to see.

The trees give me life.

The sky is clear.

The ground is firm.

How I love to visit you again and again.

New Year Poem

The New Year is just around the corner

Some of us are preparing to celebrate with friends and family

Have you made any New Year's resolutions?

The christmas trees are being put away

Santa has left on his sleigh

Children and students are preparing to go back to school

The bills are piling up

Unwanted gifts are being returned

Some of us are preparing to go back to school

Whether you have someone special in your life or not 

Embrace the New Year

Forgive and forget

Some of us just might tie the knot

A baby or two just might pop out

Christmas-Poem

Christmas a time to spend with family and friends

The mall is busy, last minute shoppers racing round and round

Children are anxious anticipating what Santa has brough this year

Lonely people fill coffee shops missing their family and friends

Some people are in the kitchen preparing christmas dinner

Others less fortunate are on the streets trying to survive one more day

The lucky ones are on the mountains embracing winter snow

Another holiday that brings joy and sadness to some

To others a time of financial burden and pressure

What ever your case may be I wish you all happiness and joy

Christmas is Around- Journal Entry

  Today is Christmas Eve.  Here I am sitting in Worksafe BC escaping the realitiy of my life.  I yearn for peace and quite.  I also wish for lots of money so I can live the life I want.  I want my independence which means having my own condo, car, and lots of money so I can can live life on my own terms.  I hate having the pressure of having to work.  The reality of life is that money is so powerful and sometimes so hard to obtain.  When I was younger I put my happiness first.  At 31 years old I realize how important it is to have money.  My needs have changed.  I want to grow up and leave home and start my own life. 

  Life is challlenging an endless rollercoaster going round and round.  My emotions are so strong and powerful.  A cup of cammomile tea is waiting for me.  I try to calm myself down and listen to some mediation music. 

  No body is perfect.  We all have problems and challenges.  At the end of the day I feel that as humans we all just want to be happy.

To all my readers whether I know you on a personal bases or not I wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Love,

Candice Hung

Coming Home-Poem

Coming home
Relieved to see family and friends
Problems await me
It's time to get my life together
There is never enough money
Anxiety, depression, and stress surround me
My days are busy
There is so much to do
How I yearn to be financially independent
I can not run away from myself
Where ever I go my problems will follow me
Life is challenging
It's time to take control of my life
It's not over, I still have time
Take a deep breath and relax
I can't turn my life around in oneday
It's time to take care of myself
I have to help myself before I help others
Deal with one thing at a time and move on
Build a strong foundation
Romance and children are still upon the air
All I need to do is love and care for myself

Taking control of my emotions

I have to admit that being an emotional and sensitive person by nature I sometimes let my feelings get the better part of me. I try to turn my negative emotions into positive emotions. Here are some of the ways I flip my mood around: -call a friend -exercise -watch a funny movie -journal -sing -go for walk -go for a massage -have fun
