Wallitner Weekly Returns!

Hello Everyone!

I have decided that I will be doing Wallitner Weekly posts again. I have taken over a year off from writing these, and I could list off tons of excuses for why. My wife and I moved across the state, I started a full-time job, we bought a house, that’s aside from everyday life things too. But the reality is, I got lazy and stopped making this weekly update a priority.

But… I missed writing these short stories and updates. For Christmas my oldest brother got me three of his top five favorite books (and a VERY nice bottle of liquid inspiration). The first one I decided to read was called “The Miracle Morning” by Hal Elrod. It is a morning routine book that uses what Hal calls “the Life S.A.V.E.R.S.” method. Silence, Affirmations, Visualization, Exercise (That one is hard for me), Reading, and Scribing. And as I have been doing everything that the book suggests, which includes getting up earlier than I ever have before (Feels great the second time, the first time was like changing stinky diapers, very important, but awful) I feel amazing! I feel inspired to do and be much more than I was before. I should really thank my brother.

All that to say, the last S of Scribing reminding me how much I miss writing to you. Writing is fun for me. I was looking back at the Wallitner Weekly Archive and seeing all the things I did and wrote about that I had forgotten over the years. It was like a photo album of my mind.

Now my camera has a new lens and I am ready to start taking pictures again!

I will keep this first Wallitner Weekly short and sweet and leave you with a poem I wrote while I was away from you all:

i Believed

i Believed there was a bench in heaven

where lost loved ones sat and watched the world.

they’d sit and wait for their partner

to pass by and join them there.

but if i find myself in heaven soon,

i pray there is no wooden bench.

i pray there is no way to see

you live your life without me.

we’re both too young to be alone,

so i pray you never have to be,

but I could never sit on the bench

and watch you be us without me.

i Believed there was a bench in heaven

now i pray it isn't true.

because i’d rather fade to darkness

than see you light up with someone new.
