There is always a reason,
there always was.
A motivation, the initial
inspiration, an explanation,
interest, enthusiasm or a
passion (even obsession):
what moves you?
It is a drive. But why?
More than the where or
the when, the why began
the all-consuming interest.
We all have our reasons.
We all have our wonders.
We all have our why.
Remember the why.
It is still within you.

Through the winter and all
those weeks waiting and
anticipating that which will
bring the joy of spring for
such a scant moment and we
want to rush time as we do
nothing but hope for it all to
arrive with the progress so
slow and the results so spare
for days and days we crave
sunlight and heat or tolerate
April showers for the sake of
May flowers as if the month
will make a difference to our
lives and then the days you
realize indeed it does and now
you only want to slow it all
down for more than a little
while and enjoy the blessings
eager tulips bring a mad world

Forever, we need to be aware that there is always more than one source of light.
We need to be cognizant of our environment as, it changes daily, we shift between the light and the dark.
It is not always bright.
Often we are fooled by its presence, or regret that light we didn’t take advantage of. All too often we become captivated by something shiny off in another direction and it takes time for us to realize it was only a distraction.
We can be blinded by a light instead of guided by the light.
There is more than one light; which will you choose today?

We are not always aware of the motion of everyday life, possibly because we are illusively caught up in the ebb and flow, as we strive to keep moving forward.
There are always so many forces at play — both external and internal — and it truly is a balancing act.
We may deviate from the path but it should never alter our direction.

There is a lot going on right now:
individually, collectively or societally.
Can’t you hear what’s happening
to each of us, right now, wherever
we are?
Listen.
Are you listening to absorb or
are you listening to respond?
Your response or reaction can, and
often will, lead to action.
It may also lead to interaction.
Are you listening?
