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.

mornings

Mornings do not wait until you are ready, they happen naturally.

Day-by-day a different view, a change of pace, the same old you. Your perspective goes a long way in solving the curiosities that will engage you throughout your life.

Where will your light settle today?

           If it is now, then

too long I have waited. Shadows of moments past

 blur

           one into the next

              and I remained confounded 

             by all that has happened since.

This time I take for granted 

can no longer be shared. I have already experienced 

the ripeness of the moment, the cool breeze 

that arrives with autumn, knowing 

           there is still so much ahead of me.

speculation
Posted on October 8, 2024 by j.g.lewisLeave a comment

Nothing like yesterday, or 

the day before. Our lives still 

hang in the balance between

what we do not understand

and all we are not prepared

to acknowledge.

Suspended speculation, this

continuum continues to exist. 

Surely there will be others, 

but nothing like this day.
