lost

a writer must write

or fall into a darkness

scarier than life

 

essential nature

a human being –

an island of excellence –

life – priceless gift

 

Fear

“but fear of making

mistakes can itself become

a huge mistake:” risk

all for love for life is risky.

going forth

giving birth to life –

incomprehensible pain –

a risk worth taking.

 

 

the void

towels folded perfectly.

lawn of the month.  money in the

bank.  what is missing?

will it never end

the expectations,

the hopes, the dreams, the rain.

moment to moment

i wanted to believe

there is an answer

but there is none.  there is only

life.  your life.  live it.

 

leap of faith

give up the life you

planned to receive the one you’ve

been given.  show me.

 

let go now

“We must be willing

to get rid of the life we’ve planned,

so as to have the

life that is waiting for us.”

by Joseph Campbell

 

beyond effort

we try too hard to

get it – yoga, life – secret is

not too tight, not too loose
