For me, this is a famous and well-known quote. However, not everyone spends as much time with martial artists as I do. This came up in conversation today, and my friend hadn’t heard this quote. So, I thought it would be valuable to share.
I think this is particularly relevant today. Our fast-paced, manic, ever-shifting world being fluid and able to adjust is a critical career skill now. Be formless, take the form of wherever life takes you. There’s value in that.
I love xkcd comics! With the recent hurricane, I thought this was rather timely.
Me being me, if I were an inadvertent passenger on a hurricane chaser flight, I expect I’d utilize all the flights barfbags. Yes, that’s where my mind went!
Anyway, you should subscribe to them. Now!
Pre-dawn
Tranquil silence ~
My pen and I
I love early mornings, before anyone else is awake.
Living: grace’s gift –
To feel sunlight on your face
And the evening rain
breathe in, fill my lungs
then exhaling, life’s motion
night freeing my soul
Just trying to focus my breathing, calling my mind and soul, seeking tranquility and rest.
A barista at my favorite local coffee shop had this phrase on her t-shirt yesterday: “What Goes Around Comes Around”. That inspired me to create this one in Illustrator. I haven’t used it as much as I’d like, so finding reasons to open it and mess around always feels good.
I created this with an app called InstaQuote, which in not sure exists anymore. This is in my aging Kindle, which I need to resume soon.
This was a response to a haiku prompt: leaks. Thinking of the way sunlight makes its way though the trees to the east. I’m fond of that morning light.
Pulled this together with Photoshop. Keeping my skills somewhat sharp.
Woke to wind chimes’ song
Gentle motion of the air
Harbinger of fall
I love the sound of my wind chimes. Today, the pre-dawn morning air cool. Autumn approaches! September just days away, which I delight in. Though I need to trade my shorts and sandals for pants and sweaters, I find that fair.
As a long time fan of Star Wars, I delight in my discovery of this video. A fan montage, it really does a great job of taking the “The greatest teacher failure is” phrase of Yoda’s and reinforce it well. It really adds some interesting insights into The Last Jedi.
I appreciate considering the importance of failure, not only in the lives of fictional characters but also in ours.
