life notes; flaws and all

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.

It is simple.
Be there
for those
who have
been there
for you.
Bring what
you can.
Show up
for them.
More importantly;
show up
for yourself.
Be present.
Everything else
will be a
little easier.
Be there.
It’s that simple.

Go easy on yourself.

Don’t let it get complicated.

Live Like Jazz

it comes with a purpose,
                   arrives full of risk.
It nourishes the soul from a rhythm,
             whatever it has,                 
                         whatever it be
we should all live like jazz.
