Like a note closed in a book with the intention to return but delayed by change, the former pastime, art or hobby surfaces to salve and ask again if the time has come to resume. Our reality is part assumption, part affirmation, and part discovery. We need to lead by knowing where those who follow … Continue reading »
We each live like flowers, unique yet composed from the same parts of the plant we stem from. Some alone others in clusters, some bloom once, others again. Some never open. Whatever we pass on grows into its own. On the banks of thought, we evade the momentum flood, and find the feeder springs though … Continue reading »
Rest makes you more perceptive than the present all the time. But only if you use it To override the assumed and expect the unpleasant. Not that which happens to other people, but those that hold you accountable for your bad actions. Expertise accumulates but also expires. After the facts, and suggestions, you compromise the … Continue reading »
Dust off the fuzz off the lazy days, earned rest in spite of life’s continuing on, with intentions left unfilled. Is rest so expensive we need to waste daylight for it? Make sense of old fiction, delivered as fables, while leaving new realities to chance; to relax seems a wasteful option. Lean in close to … Continue reading »

Inertia accompanies the ability to action, and excuses encourage it. Memories made from impressions of the days’ experience, robbed by insomnia from reflection. One more day, then start … Continue reading »
Silence brings peace; closeness chafes, where matter meets. Space feels free; but force the role, and meet someone, you never wanted to know. Solutions answer a single question. Is engagement a commitment? Or temporary attention paid, to incentivize a promise.
Surprise return of the expected presence and it dissipates the magic conjured by an attempt to elevate the end of the evening. Your assumptions will fail you. Never stop questioning the infallible reality. You can improve a weak original so don’t lament or fear failure but accept it as an opportunity for redemption. Loss forces … Continue reading »
To reckon all that we think is novel as not, I offer this symposium:To all the hopeful fellows on concrete blocks,To all the widows wondering when the next will knock,On their windows at night,To scare them out of their knickers,To all the kids hanging on the highest bar their friends bet they would never have … Continue reading »
