2015 – 2025: a decade of days


a daily breath

  • viewpoint

    Vision obscured by common occurrence, perhaps appearing disparate today, yet  always hope for an alternate perspective.  Hardly a coincidence, isolation may  principally compound its influence or  allow you to seek a different viewpoint. Take notice, observation provides clarity.

  • Mondays are just young Fridays

    There.

     

    Sit, quietly and comfortably, where you are.

     

    Acknowledge the gradient nature of progress as it happens with the shades of past days inflecting a presence we don’t often respect.

     

    Take your time.

     

    Feel. Where you are.

     

    At the intersection of faith and contentment you will gradually find your way.

     

    Think about it.

     

    Set your intentions.

     

    Now rise, slowly and purposefully.

     

    Look up, not only with your eyes but with your neck engaged in mindful movement.

     

    Release the stiffness in your bones, allow energy to radiate from the spaces between.

     

    Let the weight on your shoulders dissipate as you allow the arms to simply hang as if they are not even there.

     

    Inhale. Exhale.

     

    Each breath is as important as the next.

     

    Breathe.

     

    Exercise thankfulness, first and foremost to your self and the effort you have just expended.

     

    Hold that thought.

     

    You have already begun to experience the day.

     

    Gratitude will follow with your next steps.

     

    Share that feeling.

     

    Enjoy this day.

  • cloud songs

          As it is and will be 
    for the foreseeable future, there is 
    only what remains behind the disguise.
       As natural as it has been, as
       astonishing as it occasionally seems, 
       we can only hope it will get better.
         Why is it we allow optimism 
         to dislimn all that is?
              Hope casts a lengthy shadow.

  • destination

    This morning is
    just this morning.

    Last night
    was only a night.

    Where we end up is
    as much a choice as chance.

    A destination will look different
    at the end of the day.

  • Mondays are just young Fridays

    This period of organic transformation, as seasons do what seasons have done before, is full of possibilities.
       It is only natural to wonder what happens next as temperatures climb and the sun promotes growth, gratitude, and further change. 
       This is evolution in its most natural elemental. A beauty to behold, daily, hourly, seasonally.
       Take the time to notice.
       Enjoy it all.
