Pied-à-terre Dreams


©Core Group Marketing

Transported beyond my normal existence I find myself roaming free, exploring the world, my mind remaining clear.  Conceptualizing and visualizing this new world that I've become attached to ... where I now live and breathe. In movement, unable to permanently be grounded I've taken residence in NYC, Midtown to be exact. Today, I find myself positioned high up on the twenty-first floor. Embracing the city life from a writer's view: Consumed with various sounds ...pulsating, over-powering. Awakening my soul. Composing wishes with my words. I feel invigorated. Reborn. Writing from my pied a`terre window,  I've fallen in love with what surrounds me. These vivid images of inspiration I welcome within. The people ...the vehicles ...the food being sold.

I will soon be returning to Detroit as I am only here temporarily.

Transported beyond my normal existence- living the writer's life. In a dream-like state observing, creating ...still in movement unable to permanently be grounded. Amused by what's in sight.
The burst of light, the energy electrifying from the heart of the city-even in daylight. Perched in a corner from up top; I stare long and hard while engaging the vibe from the people of Times Square.

Connected, I continue to write: The characters are now in transit, no longer in plain view. I find them hiding. Blending within the NYC landscape, its many trees, and busy sidewalks. I imagine them running fiercely inside of the luminous gigantesque [Empire State] Building ...hiding from me, their creator. Although, I am human-far from a God. I am the author of their existence, sent to this place to discover dreams of imaginative creations ...and whimsical beings.

I will soon be returning to Detroit as I am only here temporarily.

Living the life as a writer, my mind has no limitations.  I can travel from place to place, worlds apart and beyond the normal scope. Unable to permanently be grounded I remain inspired to create.  While I still dream to inspire.

Monarch Butterfly on Goldenrod Image ©Jennifer Schlick                                God, life changes faster than you think.   ~ Amy Tan   Today, I came across this quote, it reminded me of something my brother shared during one of our intense conversations. Without divulging any of his personal thoughts or secrets. My brother clearly expressed his disdain for how fast the seasons change. The deeper the conversation evolved the clearer it had become that my brother not only spoke of changing seasons but how sudden one's life can transform. A metamorphosis of experiences, memories and love, simply rearranging itself into one unusual cluster of brand newness. The strong, powerful relationships you once held close are now pieces of delicate petals left to scatter in the remembrance of your mind. The affection and fondness you treasured and shared has ...

One Broken Down Car, and A Dream!

Over the past three weeks, I've come to find myself placed in various conversations with many interesting people.  The popular topic of discussion clearly consisted of both men and women in search of their true destiny...the real reason for their existence.  Many of us share the dream of cutting loose of our nine-to-five's in quest of creative freedom.  In hopes of leaping out from amongst the numerous "...Could I, Should I's and What If's".   Free to explore our passions, in pursuit of what truly makes us happy as individuals, and hopefully become successful in the process.  Which, brings me to the meat of this post and to the focus of most of my recent conversations, The Fear!   While on the path to creative freedom  what are you Really giving up to reach your dreams?  As the fear sweeps in, beginning to rush through your body, tranquilizing and suffocating your mind with worries and doubt.  The nerves surrenders to the an...
