Facing Forward, Pursuing Progress
I am in motion
Walking under the night’s sky
The moon escorts me
Some thoughts on the night. Love the colors of this night’s sky. How satisfied were you with the day now past?
A coffee haiku for your Sunday morning
The grace of mornings
Facilitate my heartbeat
Glorious, warm darkness
May your day be blessed indeed.
Meditating on things that hamper growth. Insecurities fill that for me. Especially as they’re often unfounded and irrational, to the point of annoyance. Well, that’s how I feel when I can step back and look set them rationally.
Writing is one way I cope. Putting them down on paper helps me deeply.
Also, this shows me the power of daily affirmations. Taking the time to deliberately challenge these destructive mental models…actually, proactively challenging them, is important. Stay ahead of the corrosion.
As I look skyward
The memories fill my mind
Seattle’s autumns
We devour rage
And it seeps into our bones
One tweet at a time
A meditation on modern culture. Am I off base? What do you think?

Ventured into town
Walking the streets I once knew
Many memories
Flowers in the night
Do they notice the street light?
A breeze from the west
Another meditation from an evening walk. These walks clear my mind of the day’s mania. Thus they’re very welcome to me.
Though the air has cooled
These flowers resist autumn
Sunlight’s grasp waning
I took this photo in Edmonds, a small town north of Seattle. I’ve lived most of my life in its orbit. My heart has a dear place for this place.
