Buen dia, Good day everyone!
My inspiration today was this wonderful door handle I found. It is the picture, the door, the whole enchilada! This capture has personality plus. Door knobs, handles are fascinating, the vast variety seen when one searches them out is mind-blowing. Artistic statements .. not necessarily on their own, they are, but somehow the charm, the “statement” is in the marriage of the hardware to the door itself. When this was new, I doubt it would have had the same fascination for me, but it has aged, and its appearances has been enhanced with age.
I looked at a lot of pictures of door knobs and handles, I have a Pinterest board of Doors, there are many beautiful pieces in all shapes and sizes. Some wonderfully preserved. But this is the one I wanted, this is the one that spoke to me. It sent my mind off into story land, I imaged it talking to me, wishing me welcome. Smiles, the door handle is a wizard in disguise. Lean closer, hear the tale he spins to beckon you in, behind his sturdy ancient weather worn door.
Enter through this door
watch your step there is no floor
inside you’ll find the years of wear
you’ve allowed to gather on your earthly form
do you dare face the dust and debris
on the pages of your life, worn and torn
from constant use and abuse.
oh, will the door not open
please, use the knocker
the sound will be heard within
you need only want the door to open
and it will
if there is a lock, it is because we put it there
We loved with all our heart,
we were blessed with happiness and bliss
and for whatever reason, it was lost
so to protect our fragile heart
we put it under lock and key
time passes, life around us changes, and so do we
but somehow, we don’t want to use the key
our heart still beats and longs to be free
what was…. was… we now know we can never go back
we simply are not the same person we were back then
trust the desires and longing of your heart
trust the person you have become
Love is beautiful
Love is being alive
Love is the freedom to be
Love is living a life in Perfect Liberty
Love is us
Love is you, me
we are ONE
God is Love.
