It is often history that clouds our judgment, and even prevents us from seeing the true and right path we must take going forward.
The steps we have already made, even those unplanned, play a meaningful role in the direction we have chosen. But, they do not always have to chart the course of future progress.
Progress, yes, it is what we must do, even unknowingly.

The coldest morning of the winter
reminds you what is truly important:
– a warm parka
– garbage mitts
– a positive attitude
– good coffee
Spring is coming.
So is the weekend.
02/03/2023 j.g.l.
Our dreams, scattered
amidst our memory, last night
or the one before.
The dream, the day
inconsequential as
the music that plays
in the coffee shop.
It is all noise
cluttering the silence
we think we want to hear.

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

is a writer/photographer in Toronto.
They do not
notice yet
the time.
Anytime.
Even now.
Youth thinks
little
of destiny
or prospect
unless
mocking
at shadows
of their
future selves.
