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.

     Open mind,
 eyes blind to what
is before us.

If we can look past
all we know or see,
    is it possible
 to think past
     what we believe?

  What lies ahead?
      What will be?

What Is Now
Posted on December 21, 2019 by j.g.lewisLeave a comment

Believe in the coming day, the opportunities that will come, and the generations to follow. What is now is not what will be, and all we had is only a shadow of where we were.
Evolution happens, no matter how well, or how poorly, we are prepared. If we have not readied ourselves for the times ahead, we may well gain a more meaningful experience by simply maintaining a spirit open to the expansion and contraction of our lungs, and allowing our eyes to wander
If we only look straight ahead, we will certainly miss out on uncertain wonders, necessary distractions, and our true potential.
Breathe and see what could be, and let others notice exactly what you are.
Celebrate the darkness, and the light, that will guide you through another year.

Are we aware of
all we need to be?

We ask only what
we do not know.
