Be Yourself

Often sleep damaged
When we try to cram our souls
Into other forms


Life is hard enough without trying to force ourselves into something we’re not. Finding a place of deep love and compassion for ourselves is a key step to everything peace and tranquility. 

Clear, Cold Nights

Autumn’s air quite cool
Clear nights bring frost to my car
And these nights are long

Today’s Haiku: Focus Yourself

Begin each day strong

Focus on what you do well 

Facing down your fears 

Love Is All You Need

​Love is all you need
Against rampant cruelty
Bigotry destroys 


Cultural brutality destroys beauty. I found this video powerful, disturbing and thoughtful.  I present to you: “Love Is All You Need”, exploring sexuality, bullying, and the social pressure to conform. 

This late autumn night

This late autumn night
A light shines in the darkness
Moon and stars guiding

Find Your Greatness


Face adversity

Fill yourself with grace and strength

Find your own greatness

Negative Self-Talk

Awake in the night
Fear whispering in my ear
White noise of deceit

Audacity


It’s audacious
Hubristic, really
To think these words
A silly spackle of thought
Might, maybe, change things
Dampen a bit of rage
Create a little love
Maybe, just maybe,
My audacity might
Bear fruit
Hope echoes
Within

Dreams of the open road

Once I dreamt 

Of the open road’s

Mysteries and delights

Envisioning freedom

And escape, adventures

The discovery of myself

Now I see

Cold nights 

Buried in blankets

Fog inside on windows

Surf’s call outside and loud 

Simplicity 


Simplicity’s grace
Enjoying “less” in this life 

Minimalism
