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.

Never Doubt

We all carry
the same courage, yet
we are not always
     called to use it.
We question ourselves,
just as we question others.
     It is only human.
We are only human.
We need
to be reminded to
never doubt your place,
your purpose, or
your power.

be still

even
if only
for
a moment
stand
right there
be still
be silent
let the
world
go
around you
there
is no need
to move
there is
no need
to rush
there is no
need
to do
anything
just
be still
for as long
as you can
for
as long as
you want
for as
long as
you need
stand in
stillness
when you
know how
you
will
know
why

Will we see past
    that which
obscures our vision
   or continue
to let it cast shadows
across our landscape.
   The obvious can
   be overlooked.
