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 . . .

    We look for, or expect, 
movement naturally happening
              in this day-to-day existence. 
   We experience what we 
   permit ourselves to see.
         Sometimes it is not much,
             or we fail to believe the 
         incremental, gradual,
                gentle wisps of progress.
        It is all right there,
        if you choose to look up.

I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

     She carries both
  thunder and lightening
     as she arrives.
Her umbrella gave in
    long ago, battered by
a wind which didn’t belong,
  but she didn’t mind
  getting wet.
Silk dress stained
    by misfortune, torn off
    and left curbside,
    she decided she liked
getting wet. We are all
        mostly water, and
she could flow.
    She reminded us
we come into the world naked,
     yet learn, or are taught,
  to cover up.
Shame.
It took her years to discover
       she had
           nothing to hide.
