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

You need to look closely at what is there.
Observation takes time.
Only a trace of what remains will remind you, again, how it began and why you started.
We look at our actions differently as life moves forward; we must.
A disappointment one day becomes an accomplishment the next. Each step brings a little more advancement yet, at times, you just have to stop and take a deeper look at what is in front of you.
Look past all that has passed. Progress is part of the process.
It can be quite humbling. You may need to remind yourself why.

It is never too soon
to take notice of
an early-rising moon.
Ever closer to its
fuller phase, Luna
holds a charm in
her certain ways.
Always a gift,
if you choose to
lift your eyes.
An everyday evening,
still quite a surprise.

Intelligence and intellectuality,
a consciousness of our reality.
Clarity.
Perspicacity, mental reception
or sensory perception, emotions
consequential
to daily expression of thoughts
and being, lay within our mind.
Two percent
of a body’s mass; small in size
and stature, a human brain has
greater efficiency
than we consider thinking about.
Involved in; no, responsible for
everything we do.
Neurons and neurotransmitters
affect fundamental function and
well being
far beyond our mental health.
Grey matter. And matter it does.
How we think,
feel, react or behave, the mystery
or magic of the cerebrum is tested
daily. Now,
then, and again, and again. Always.
Anxiety, depression, joy and pain,
deeper thoughts
hidden inside memory and minutes
contained within the human brain.
Believe.
