we have to
The balance of the lives we live has been altered. Unsteady as it seems, this is our reality.
We change; we have to.
We have to learn to accept our roles and responsibilities, but don’t always have to live with consequences that are not ours.
We have to find ways of dealing with circumstances that are not, or should not be, our responsibility.
We have to learn to proceed without certainty.

awake or not
Will an hour make a difference?
Awake or not, time ticks away.
Will seconds and minutes amount to much as we proceed with a new day? What will you do with an hour lost in sleep?
Are you restless, still, about all you have done or have yet to do?
The answer is not found in the time but is found within you.

cloud songs
Knowing there is something,
yet not understanding why.
More than an instinct,
the day will provide.
Uncertain at first.
The feeling, the wonder,
what will quench your thirst?
A question misunderstood;
the answer won’t hurt.

task at hand
What, to you, serves as motivation?
What do you think about as you are
working, or creating. The task at hand
is not always top of mind.
What is your muse?
What distracts you from your intent?
Is life a distraction, or is art?
Art is life, or there is an art to living,
but you do have to work at it.
How will you create today?
