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.

Passing Time
Posted on November 4, 2018 by j.g.lewisLeave a comment

The sleep, the time,
the daylight we have gained
will only be taken back.
In the spring we lose,
in the fall we gain, a practice
we continue, again and again.
Will our lives change much
over a meagre hour?
Does time have its place,
its privilege, or power
to disrupt emotions;
what is yours or what’s mine?
Will it make
any real difference?
We are all passing time.

That Kind Of Kindness

We could all use
a little more kindness.
Begin with yourself.
Be kind to yourself, and
everything else will
fall into place.

You

Who are you today?

What will you give
as a greater expression
of yourself?

What will you
do today?

How about tomorrow?
