Passion

September 9

Do what you need to do,
creatively, to make
something happen.
Find a passion.
Follow your passion.
Be your passion.

Passion.

Make it happen.

a decade of days…

2025 is an anthology of thoughts du jour, unsolicited advice, messages of peace, philosophy, poetry, and photographs from the past decade of Mythos & Marginalia. In unchronological order, the years not as important as the dates, each post a reminder (if only to myself) that I do indeed write every damn day.

it has passed

I seem to forget how quickly

everything, in this age of instant,

becomes the past.

Random thoughts, photographs,

journal entries, grocery lists, facts,

fashion and faith captured in the

moment will soon only represent

history.

What it is becomes what it was.

Our memory banks are brimming,

perhaps more eventful than the

current account of our lives.

The past affects the present, now

becomes when, even if we try to

do it all again.

We can’t relive the past; it has passed.

How do we deal with change when it

happens again and again? You can’t

prepare when you don’t know what is

there. You can only go with the flow.

cloud songs

Humidity. Uncertainty,
darkness threatens rain.
Summer nights and memories,
won’t happen like that again.
                  It felt close.
             I was younger.
        Still, I remember.

this country

Unity, or
diversity,
does not mean
conformity.
Each of us owns
hopes
and dreams;
they belong to us
individually, just as
we all belong
to this country.
Our views are
different,
but this country
is the
common bond.
Celebrate
where we are
and
who we are.
Accept
the differences
in yourself
and others.
We all share
the same sky.
Happy Canada Day.

do what you want to do

You might not have what it takes, or you may be overqualified, but it should not take away your desire to try and do what you want to do.
You may not get the results you intended, or you could be pleasantly surprised at what happens.
Either way, you will learn more by trying than by regretting that you didn’t make an attempt.
Go ahead.
Give it a try.
What else will you do with all that time?
