To feel the wind in your soul means finding the rain upon it as well.
But then, who wants an air-conditioned soul?
Artistry
Creation
anymore resembles nothing so much as a masterpiece, painted
over by some buffoon intent on
utilizing the canvas for his own droll doodling. Perhaps the
reason the desolate expanse
of the American Southwest is so
appealing to modern man is that while one can still glimpse, here and
there, the geometric
symmetry and sameness that
characterize man's notion of achievement, the work of the Master still
dominates, and we are left
in rightful awe over it's power and
majesty. What gives me pause is that we return to our world of
circles, squares
and rectangles with no sense of
outrage over the real beauty they so mundanely replace.
Economics 101 in the New Millenium
There ain't no such thing as a free call.
Wisdom
It
amazes me that people fail to see the wisdom of love and the
corresponding
idiocy of hatred. We should
not need scripture or holy pronouncements to show us that love is
the way. Common
sense should dictate it's value to
ourselves and each other.
The Reason to Smile
Smile.
Those things you can control will yield eventually.
Those you cannot will be there
tomorrow to battle anew. In either case, they will quite dispassionately
wait long enough for you to smile.
Patience
Patience isn't a virtue. It's a survival skill....
Passion
Passion is a living spark, a fire that can be neither lit nor quenched - it must burn of
its' own accord, or not at all.
Courtship
The dance is a peculiar thing, for though it can be quite fleeting, in the
framework of the instant it occupies, it is yet timeless and immutable.
Love
Love makes too many people afraid and a wonderful few alive.
The Temple
The truth is in our hearts, not our artifices. It's there
that love and hate fight
their age-old battle for control of
humanity's path. We are the temple, and the common place, all
rolled into one....
This Day....
The
world this day leaves me with a sense of yet gathering storm clouds,
as those who think the possession of
power somehow perfectly equivalent to entitlement blunder blindly about
feeding the age
old monsters of fear and anger, all
the while wondering when God will at last come and show the world His
approval of their
unknowing, uncaring blasphemy.
We harvest the fruits of our own selfish ignorance, and call it
"right...."
Politics
Reality is never determined by popular vote.
Wealth
True wealth is only created in good and loving times, and the memories they
engender. These are the things you can take with you, that no one can rob you of, no matter how hard they try....
Fog
The idiocy of the few creates a haze through which the uninformed
and uncaring many find their way to complacence.
Contrast
To love honestly and truly, one must first intimately
know and courageously embrace heartbreak.
