a daily breath...

A thought du jour, my daily breath includes collected and conceived observations, questions of life, fortune cookie philosophies, reminders, messages of peace and simplicity, unsolicited advice, inspirations, quotes and words that got me thinking. They may get you thinking too . . .

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

A life lived to the fullest is a life lived
to the fullest expression of yourself.
Be who you are.
Don’t step away from what you were,
but step into what you are.
Dare to be seen as who you are,
not who you once might have been.
Build new habits, and break old ones,
redefine what is acceptable to you.
Every step, every breath, each word,
and every moment is yours to reclaim.
Be you.
Be now.

Enlight1
   In the span between two
 and three,
              the silence is your own;
 full of thought, yet incomplete.
   What brings you comfort
 of the mind,
    if not
       the silence,
            if not the time?

the words you said
the things you did
the plans you made
the desires you hid
the nights went late
the darker the day
the thoughts ran deep
the silence your way
the words were pure
the sentiments remain
the plan in progress
the desire the same
