How do we choose to travel?
What is reliable in the rain?
What is our ultimate destination,
for this time, this journey, or
this day?
We move at the speed of life.
Depending on traffic, others
may chose to follow your path,
but not your direction.

A little cold, little wet,
a little tired and yet
I am here. Still,
full of wonder.
The morning chill leaves
little to the imagination
and much less
to hope for.
Expected, perhaps, as it
always is, this time, this
season is only what
we ask of it.

The answers are far less certain
than even last week, to all those
perennial questions or solutions
you might seek.
What do you believe, or
what do you believe in?
Come Monday, you have fewer
questions than you had last week.
For a while there are less doubts
in what you believe.
Whom do you believe in,
and who believes in you?

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

Do you feel stuck where you are?
Are you content with your state of being: emotionally, physically or spiritually?
Can you tell the difference between a routine and a rut?
Do you do what is expected, or intended? Are you surprised when you don’t?
Over and over we settle for the words, or the life, presented to us.
Change is always possible, but it has to begin within.
It is easy to take the same steps or drive the same route, to do, again, what you did yesterday.
It is not always comfortable. It is not always right.
It is a habit.
We are limited by habits, and patterns, no matter how routine. No matter how uncomfortable.
Are you comfortable with change to your lifestyle or living situation?
Has it become too comfortable?
Are you ready for change? Have you even thought about it?
Have you settled?
I’m like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.
