What do you understand?
What do you struggle with?
What are you capable of?
What will you accomplish today?
What will happen if you
you reach a little further?

the influence of art
One ought — in these days of disease and deception, wanton greed and calculated corruption — to be able to step aside and rediscover what life is all about.
Caught up in the noise, the rhetoric and nonsensical sensibilities, we should each find time, however swift and fleeting, to allow art to influence our nature; and being. And grace.
Create your own solace in the midst of this madness.
Take responsibility for your self.
Be mindful, if only for a moment, of what art is there, and what it can do for you.
You are better off in knowing.© 2020 j.g. lewis

you matter
We all forget, sometimes,
to care for the one person
who shows up day after day.
In all the confusion we
overlook what matters.
All too often we get so
caught up in the actions and
emotions of those around us,
that we neglect to check in
with our self.
Try harder today to please
yourself. You deserve better
than what you have been
allowing. Be kind. You matter.© 2018 j.g. lewis

betrayal
Nature always wonders.
Nature often betrays.Rain is a reminder.
Rain never stays.Look beyond the water.
Look into your ways.© 2017 j.g. lewis

for you
Self-care, do you dare
to interrupt all that is
going on every day,
and find a moment
or two to deal with
only you?
All that other stuff,
and all those other
people, can just wait,
can’t they, for a while?
What could be more
important than you?
While making all the
lists and other plans
of all you have to do,
set aside a bit of time
explicitly for you?© 2019 j.g. lewis
