Good(night) thought

I am blessed and I am grateful to be so capable of giving love, heart, soul, spirit to the heart of another.
Goodnight

Waves

I sat along the shore
Watching a lonely wave
Wash against the sands
I wondered where
The waves have gone
I know where they are
So near to me
Yet so unreachable
A wave comes by
Every so often
To remind me
Of what had been
And then, from nowhere
They come with such force
Wave after wave
Crashing against the shore
What do they mean?

Head in the clouds

The clouds over my head
Do not obscure
The blue skies above them
The clouds appear to be
A barrier impenetrable
But come fly with me

We soar through the air
Heads pointed high
As our bodies reach the clouds
We find air and water
Life-giving nourishment
The sun greets us
With a warm embrace
To the place
We’ve been all along
In the spirit

–Lao-Tzu

Soul essence

I can feel it in me
I can feel it coursing
I can feel it flowing
My soul is living
My soul is breathing
My soul is giving
The surly bonds of earth
Try to contain its flight
But my soul becomes like fog
Covering the earth
Yet unbound by its embrace
My soul is like water
Filling the spaces
Of the soil
Giving nourishment
To roots and branches
As the [...]

The grand unified theory of…me…condensed

I.
I talk and write a lot about the universe and how it is an example for me. And I realize that that might be a little bit too much to grasp. Yes, it is ever-evolving and ever-expanding. But it’s too much to wrap your arms around.
