Mythos & Marginalia

life notes; flaws and all


open space

  • what is ahead?

    The next step, the next day, the next season, or next mistake; what is to become of what is now (or what has past) when we rely mostly on hope and happenstance?

       What we choose or how we chance, do we plan (do we know) what is ahead in this vast expanse?

       Progress happens in increments and so often we are caught unawares. Do we trust; do we dare?

       Something is sure to happen, it always does, but is it a natural occurrence or is it up to us?

  • look for the beauty

    We often admire what we see relative to what we have witnessed before.

    A sunset or bouquet of flowers, not one in the same, each different than the previous; perhaps you will call it common.

    Still, you look for the beauty.

  • believe

    You trust
    what you must.

    You see
    what you want to see.

    You believe
    as much as you can
    before the doubt
    settles in.

  • previously undiscovered

    Wise words from the Internet.

    Some days, someone else (and I don’t know who) offers a thought or phrase that simply hits home.

    On a day like today, these words make more sense than anything else my mind will allow.
