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.

Each Of Us

         If you tell me your name
             you tell me a history,
   abbreviated yes, but one
of decisions, dates and
       moments of significance
I know nothing about.
I too leave a shadow.
    My fears may be different
or diluted; this life treats us in ways
   nobody else would imagine,
                          or understand.
        Each of us
    will have questions
   We will always have questions.
It is human to want to know and learn,
    and listen.
    If you tell me your name
            I will tell you mine.
Then we will be equal
    and available to continue
           the conversation.
