I didn’t find this, I made it so that I can find it first thing every morning. You can’t really tell from the picture, but this is taped to my ceiling, directly above my pillows so it will be the first thing I see every morning. (When I grabbed my Sharpie, I had originally intended [...]

risk.
i believe that we are put here in human form to decipher the hieroglyphs of love & suffering. &, there is no degree of love or intensity of feeling that does not bring with it the possibility of a crippling hurt. but, it is a duty to take that risk & love without reserve or defense.

were you sad?
“One day,” you said to me, “I saw the sunset forty-four times!”
And a little later you added:
“You know–one loves the sunset, when one is so sad…”
“Were you so sad, then?” I asked, “on the day of the forty-four sunsets?”
But the little prince made no reply.

water.

what do you owe?
Even after all this time
The sun never says
To the earth
“You owe me.”
Look what happens
With a love like that,
It lights the
Whole sky.

balance.
running toward eternity
watching & seeing the balance
of all that surrounds
turn inward for the truth
never dwell in the sorrow
or live in the pain
the choice is yours
give up your “self”
experience the unending love
that is manifested for all
