night thoughts 3:23

February 18

The uninformed
indecision of others is
uniformly unstable.
It is obvious at 3:23 a.m..

a decade of days…

2025 is an anthology of thoughts du jour, unsolicited advice, messages of peace, philosophy, poetry, and photographs from the past decade of Mythos & Marginalia. In unchronological order, the years not as important as the dates, each post a reminder (if only to myself) that I do indeed write every damn day.

small moments

Freshly-planted flowers,
fading daylight, and
a quiet reminder
that time is just
what it is.
Enjoying small moments
better prepares you
for the big challenges
that come your way.

make up for lost time

We are human.

We get things wrong.

We make mistakes.

We spend so much of our time
reinventing, or attempting,
what has been done before.

We need more time to do
what we need to do, not
more time to make up for
lost time.

cloud songs

It is only after the day, after
the rain, after the pain,
that we learn.

We only learn
after we listen. We only learn
after we have listened about
truth and injustice.

We only learn
after you believe it happened.

wonder awaits

What will it take to
believe in your self?
What will it take to
believe in others?
We are all human.
We all have something
to do, or something to
prove; what is stopping
you?
What’s holding you back?
Look within. You need to
accept your limitations
(all subject to change),
but more so, you will need
to accept your capabilities.
We can all do more than we
think we can. Acceptance
takes understanding of who
we are and the powers we
all hold. We are human.
Try to understand.
Try. Keep trying.
Wonder awaits.

A shifting shadow, the curious
moon, drop of rain resting on a
gentle leaf, a song or sound
from a passing car, laughter
caught in the night’s slight
breeze. Exacting opportunities
like these just happen. Naturally.
Sometimes it’s the
simple things that inspire.
Be moved. All day you’ve been
waiting for this moment. Now.
Create when you can.

remember…

It is the moments
that make memories,
the time with family
and friends.
You don’t always get
as much time
as you’d like, so make
the most of the time have.
Remember
what is important;
where you were, and
who you we with.
Make memories.
Remember. . .
