life notes; flaws and all

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.

I can do
only what
I can do.
To do anything else
is to take away
from the task
at hand.

I do
what
I do
without expectations,
and not fretting over
that which may
beome incomplete.

I complete
what I can
when I can,
always anticipating
unexpected delays,
I realize it might
take me days.

Another Possibility

What are you giving off?
What are you giving out?
What are you giving up?
If today were
less complicated, and
you could simply see
another possibility,
what would you give back?

Some of us
have been broken.

Most of us
are just people.

All of us
need to think about that.
