Today’s Quote of the Day

Felt it important to add something positive to the world this morning. So much anger, negativity, distrust and simple rage, I’ve grown a bit weary of the internet. However, I still see great value in the platform.

Anyway, with that, I thought this quote by Einstein was perfect. People are important, but we need to focus on goals, build a mission and drive forward. We need to allow toxic people to go and bring healthy people into our orbit.  Positive energy can feed back into itself, growing powerful and more effective. It’s not magic, taking time and focus, too. But it pays off

Anyway, what will you do to make this real? To make not just your life, but the world a better place? I’d like to know.

 

Pity

A worthless feeling
Are those focused on demeaned?
Seek dignity’s path

New Mexico Meditation

These adobe walls

With vibrant reds and deep browns

Feeling the desert

 

In this morning dark

My mind’s focus telling me

My heart’s deep values
There are times that I think my priorities are “X”. I’ve learned, though, my mind’s focus when I wake tells me the deepest concerns of my heart. 

What’s interesting is how often it’s not anything I give focus to during my day. Or i would expect to be secondary. 

Sometimes it’s not logical, other times it’s extremely rational. 

Sometimes fear, now, though, it’s not. That’s a blessing. 

My Writer’s Brain, Awake In The Dark

​I want to sleep 

I want to write 

I want these two 

To align in 

Daylight 

Another Day Ends

Another day ends
Dark blue sky fading to black
Rest’s demands winning

It’s been a king, busy day. Sleep’s call is winning with me. Time to wrap up the day and go up sleep.

Now I’m awake

The cool air

Through my window

Very welcome

Reminders of

Times along

The coast

Blessed sea breeze

Lacking the scent

Of the sea

No ocean crushing

Sound for my ears

An incompleteness

That my soul

Longs to complete

A haiku From My Evening Walk

With the sun’s motion
And the light starting to fade
Night’s calmness coming

A thought about taekwondo

Bodies in motion
With the power of our minds
Martial arts’ beauty,

I’ve been studying taekwondo for several years. I’ve been a black for s could years know. I love the beauty, the strength, and grace. And,just importantly, I adore the community that is my humble school’s.
