2015 – 2025: a decade of days


open space

  • pay attention

    What has captured your attention?

    Are you aware of the surroundings
    and your place within them?

    Look around.

    Pay attention to both the delights
    and the dangers.

  • and/or

    Maybe today
       the questions will become clear.
              Clarity is not always
              available or insightful.

    Maybe today
       you can see without judgment.
              Issues are often
              confusing or complicated.

    Maybe today
       the answers will arrive
              as plain as day,
              bountiful and believable.

  • Mondays are just young Fridays

    It comes with the Sun or the season.
    While days are growing longer, the years seem much shorter.
    Time, at times, feels so compressed.
    With fewer instances to address concerns or curiosities, try as we might, I occasionally worry about how much time remains. It comes and goes with the days.
    Minutes and moments and calendar days are usual ways to track our advancement through this life.
    Best-before dates mean less and less as we always seem to want more and more memories and minutes through the days and the years.
    That is time.
    It is a choice to make it meaningful.

  • experience

    Memories and moments count in present tense.
    There is a point where what has happened contributes to what will happen.
    It may be happening right now.
    Experience counts for something.
    Be a part of it all.

  • satisfaction

    lunchtime yesterday

    street meat
    and time in the park

    pure simplicity
    a taste of summer

    simple satisfaction

    for a while
    my problems dissipated

    I need to do that
    more often
