  • Future Solution

    How many mass shootings
    will it take for people to begin
    answering the questions they
    so freely ask?
    It is not enough to simply ask.
    Every answer is important if
    it creates a discussion that
    leads to a future solution.
    Until then, it is only words.

  • Unsolicited Advice

    Why are we moving so quickly?
    Why is everything always a blur?
    Why does it feel like things never get done?
    Today, take a little break from all your perceived responsibilities.
    Do half of the things you think you should, and less of things you normally would.
    And do them slowly
    Let time seep into the cracks.
    This is the weekend damn it, you need time for your self.
    Slow it down.
    Life doesn’t have to move quite so quickly.
    Enjoy the pace. Avoid the race.

  • Always


               If not,
           why not?

    Ambiguity
          or reason?

         Why now?

    Always with
    the questions.

    Some answers
        never arrive.

  • Begin

    Get started.

    It takes work.

    It takes practice.

    Begin.

  • Why?

    This happened yesterday, in Toronto, in my city.
       What can I say?
       What should I think?
       Why?
       This can happen anywhere.
       This man was walking down the street with a gun, apparently towards a school.
       What was he thinking?
       Why?
