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 . . .

    We look for, or expect, 
movement naturally happening
              in this day-to-day existence. 
   We experience what we 
   permit ourselves to see.
         Sometimes it is not much,
             or we fail to believe the 
         incremental, gradual,
                gentle wisps of progress.
        It is all right there,
        if you choose to look up.

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

I have more answers than
questions, too many
I suppose, but questions
keep coming.
I have so many questions,
but often I don’t ask.
Why?
What am I afraid of?
There are no stupid questions,
it is often said, but there are
a lot of silly answers;
more like excuses or denials,
so I don’t want to hear them.
Maybe that is denial on
my part. Or is it an excuse?
It doesn’t seem right.
I’m less afraid of asking
the wrong question
than I am of providing an
incorrect answer. Then,
there are some questions
I’m afraid to ask because
I am not sure I am going to
like the answer.
You shouldn’t be afraid
of asking questions.
