Red lights and stop signs,Get in our way.It’s true they protect us,But they do cause delay. Life offers red lights,Stop signs and road blocks.Dead ends and potholes,Life’s sometimes a bit much. In life as in driving,Red lights, they protect us.And a dead end may stop us,From something that wrecks us. Honor the speed limit,And reach …
It’s nice to look back,And see what you wrote.Remember your words,Revisit what you spoke. Writing is fun.It helps us let go.Helps allow clearness,Review what we know. I began writing,Just journaling thoughts,Jotting on a notebook,With little cause. I guess writing grew,Grew upon me.It grew grew and grew,Grew like a tree. I suggest writing,To any and all,Regardless …
I like to think.I like to think broadly.In so many ways.My minds full of parties. I like to think,With symbol and story.Thinking this way,Never gets boring. I like to think,String thoughts together,Get them to rhyme,Make them sound clever. I like to think,Paint illustrations,In my mind’s eye,Vivid creations. Colors and shades,A palette of hues,Color your mind,With …
Is life all or nothing,And full of high stakes?Or is to think in this way,A massive mistake? What if we’re all,Running in circles,Chasing our tails,Stuck in reversal? In the words of the joker,“Why be so serious?”I know he’s the villain,But his question is curious. Does it make sense,To keep upping the ante.To keep dedicating our …
From where do I come?Does anyone know?Those quick to answer,Should try thinking slow. Humans have asked,For 1000s of years.And 1000s years later,We’re not any nearer. No answer resolves,The mystery of life,The mystery of being,The mystery of time. Why are we stuck,In just three dimensions?Why wasn’t it two,And why just five senses? We know that there’s …
We’ve come a long way,From just sticks and stones.Now we can decimate,Without leaving home. Drones rule the skies,Releasing depletion,Crushing opposition.Is it violence we’re teaching? Imagine the terror,As you look overhead.Explosions and tremors,Not to mention the dead. I’m told that it’s noble,We fight only evil.But civilian casualties,Are a big deal. What would you do,If your mother …
What do you choose?It’s up to you.There’s so many options,Open to pursue. You could be this,Or you could be that.Or better yet,Try all the hats. Don’t lock yourself up,With what you decide.If your tired of walls,Just go outside. Try something new.Worst case scenario?You may not like it,So repoint your arrow. Life’s full of choices,We get …
There was a man, As sure as can be.There was never a man,More surer than he. The man was up high,On the top of a building.In his own mind,He himself has no ceiling. In front of this man,Stood a long balance beam.A big part of life,Is self-trust as a theme. His confidence rises,When confronted by …
Many are at ease,Satisfied with their height.When it comes to me?Growing’s on my mind. I want to get better,Learn and improve.Improving’s important,Important to do. There’s so many ways,We can expand.Books, classes, video,In the palm of your hand. So what’s your excuse?Not enough time?Take 20 minutes a day,And learn on a dime. Growth is a process,It’s …
I look in the mirror,It’s plain as can be.Staring back is a puzzle,The mystery of me. What is the self? A clever illusion?Scholarly debates,Result in confusion. Matter is real,All that there is.Spirit is false,The imagination of kids. Focus on facts,What’s measured and solid.But facts can be changed,Rewritten and squandered! If Spirit is false,Then what is …
