    sometimes

    patience pays
    more than it costs

    time required
    is not time lost

    take the time before
    it is taken away

    do not rush

    you have got all day

    Do any of us stop long enough

         to see where we are, or

             appreciate things that 

         simply happen to us.

    Too often we are looking ahead

        without truly acknowledging

      what we have experienced.

         Maybe we do not know?

  • efficiency

    With some help, I made progress yesterday putting the finishing touches on an unexpected project that has occupied my time and mind for the better part of two weeks.

    It has been trying, dirty work. Each step of the way I have looked for quick solutions, shortcuts, and methods that more easily fit into my limited experience with this sort of construction.

    Yes, throughout the project, I was continually searching for an easier way. Sometimes the work has to simply get done, and I was trying to find simple, less complex, swifter ways of hastening the pace.

    I wasn’t being lazy; I would call it efficient. At times, efficiency takes its time.

    Still, the work got done.

    Progress is not always easy.

         Grey the days, the 

    sudden way continuance appears 

             ambiguously, as if nothing 

        is left.    Yet, it still feels strong. 

            Our energy is all wrong.

    Is this what we are searching for?

                 Should it not be more?
