Life Is

Life is about the ever present now.

Life is about the story.

Life is about me, you, and all of the stories in between.

Life is about a beginning, a middle, and an end, and all the twists and turns that become the threads and the tags and the tendrils of our lives.

Forever.

And ever.

'Till death do us part.

Or, until, the story ends.

Whichever comes first...

 
About

A moment of reflection, instigated by a classic episode of Columbo ("Murder by the Book"), and as seen through the eyes of life in the abstract, as said in a whisper of hopes and prayers, and worked as a life in progress.

Amen.

Tendrils 10

Satisfaction: Finding eddies of meaningfulness in an ocean of creative possibilities.

 

Sometimes apprehension and doubt are a few of the stepping stones in the path to success.

 

Anxiety can be a persistent gnat or a swarm of angry bees.

 

Plan for tomorrow,
      Pray to see the end of this day,
          Be thankful for the ever present now,
              And let the arrows of your heart fly where they may...

 

When you try to be all things to all people, you become nothing to everyone.

 

No dream ever dies due to a lack of want or desire, but due to a lack of faith and commitment.

 

Never and forever last only as long as a lifetime.

 

"Reality" isn't tamperproof, failproof, or foolproof.

 

Resentment is the sediment of the soul.

 

Telling the truth is always easy when there are no consequences to the teller.

 

You cannot walk in the darkness without it swallowing you whole.

You cannot step into the light without it bathing you in its intensity.

You can wander in the twilight, pondering the divisions of light and dark, until death claims you—and then you'll have no choice at all.
