A Phoenix's Relationship

Relationships are the true Phoenix's of the world. Sometimes, they crash and burn. Never to rise again. Other times they rise from the ashes and emerge stronger. It just depends on the spirit of the relationship and the motivations for the rebirth.

Overhaul

So what if it wasn't broke and you didn't have to fix it. That doesn't exempt you from performing routine maintenance. If you want something to endure, you have to invest and sacrifice time and effort. Everything wears down in time even if we are diligently, sincerely working on the upkeep. That means our lives as well. C'mon, pull into the "Prayer Shop" and see if your life needs an "overhaul". The bill is on me.

Who has the time?

Time to watch the sun watch us. Is that why they call a time piece a watch?

The Decoration Tree (Part 2)

These Lovers did part, but never really parted ways. They each lived, on their own. While on their own, they tended to the two small, similar clippings, watered, fed it, made sure it lived, gave it sun and space to grow. Time passed, the spring sun shown down on this growing tiny tree, each placed it outside to enjoy the warm spring air, in hopes of new leaves budding to life on the tiny tree. The leaves did come and growth did happen. he often thought fondly of his parted lover every time he watered and fed his tiny tree and noticed how it had grown, he had hopes for the tree. She also, often remembered her parted lover, when seeing how the tree had grown, she too had hopes for her tiny tree. As the tiny trees grew, no longer so tiny, but growing nearly half as tall as the lovers were. For time to time, the lovers did meet, but not always as lovers, but as friends. This friendship was the kind that could grow, while together, any tree. Summer came to where the lovers did live, on their own, the leaves of their not so tiny trees grew full, as they met frequently to admire the others tree. They had hopes for their trees. Fall was drawing near, leaves fell, silent on the floor in the warmth of the home, in the sunny window each kept the little tree in, bigger and still bigger pots were soon needed, its roots did grow.
Soon, as time passed, but not so long, the lovers did meet, and see the others tree, it was nearly as tall as she was, and she smiled at how well he had taken care of his little tree. he would ask, frequently, as before, "is it time yet?" Yes, the time had finally come for the plans for the little trees. They had both, grow so well. It was a day for planting and growing, for the tree, and the lovers. They both, with dirty hands, dirty knees, dug the perfect hole to place their trees in, side by side. They watered, fed and cared for their trees together. He would, as before, pull the grass from the trees, side by side, to make sure they grew healthy and strong. Soon, time passed, but not so long, the trees, wound, to and fro round and round one another, until the two small, similar clippings, given as a parting gift for lovers parting, grew as one, but with two distinct trunks. The tree had plans for the lovers. She often looked at how the tree grew, and smiled. He often, saw how the tree grew and also smiled. The tree grew quickly, before long, it was a beautiful tree, many times taller than the lovers were, giving shade to lie under, and protect the lovers. The two decoration trees did grow, as did the lovers, to never part again, yet with two distinct trunks. The tree provided for the lovers, given as a gift, a few times over as a decoration, to decorate their lives.

The Decoration Tree (Part 1)

Two Lovers were given a small clipping of a tree. This clipping was used as a decoration, a lovely decoration it was. She wanted to bring it home and keep it. The clipping still in water, started to sprout leaves. An idea she had, to nurture and grow this young tiny tree. As it grew, a larger and larger pot was needed, he would from time to time lovingly replant, feed and water this tree, often asking,"is it time yet?" The time he was asking of was the time to plant it, in their yard, with hopes of shade and beauty from this tree. As months became years, only a couple, the perfect time came. It was a day of planting, and cultivating, a new garden, to replace the old, a new place for a young tree that was too big for its pot now. tiny clipping stood nearly as tall as her. Often he would water, and feed the tree and pull the grass from around it to give it room to grow so that nothing would steal vital nutrients from it. As late summer came, the lovers were to part. As a final parting gift, he clipped 2 similar branches of this tree they both careD so much for. He told her "one for you, one for me, maybe they will both still grow to be another tree." The two lovers did part, with a piece of the decoration tree in hand. Both cared, on their own for the small clipping from the Decoration Tree, and it did grow again to be a tree.
