Remembrance.
As it is, not
as we wish it to be.
You have days
to think back on,
and you do…

always with the questions
Is what you do enough?
For who?
For you?
Self-doubt?
Self-love?
Self-centered?
Is it selfish to think mainly
of what I need to do for me,
myself, and I?
Why?
When will I find resolve to
my never-ending queries?
Will it be enough?
Do you still doubt?
Do you struggle with answers,
as much as the questions?
Can you decide?
Are you trying?
Is that enough?

cloud songs
Library of memories;
pages and paragraphs full of history
and biography, essay or adventure.
Which story should I tell?
Is it one you would well know or
a tale I still have no ending for?

I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

breathe
believe
receive
A mantra or a mission
I’ve often whispered, a
statement of fact and
empowering reminder to
myself, and to others.
To breathe is to give life,
to believe is to live life, and
to receive is what life is
about.
Today, may you breathe
fully and deeply, sucking
the nutrition out of each
puff, pull, or gasp.
May you believe in what
you need to — mostly in
your self — and receive all
you deserve, and all you
hope for, and maybe even
a little more.
