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 

Simplicity 


Simplicity’s grace
Enjoying “less” in this life 

Minimalism 

This evening’s walk

A rather warm evening for the end of November. I walked off a few of the feast’s calories, peering at the stars through Seattle’s clouds.
