Today's Tendril...

Oath. Vow. Promise. Pledge.

All alive in the stitches and staples of the ever present now.

Today's Tendril...

The wormhole between Heaven and Hell goes through the soul.

Today's Tendril...

Terse verse or verbose prose?

Brevity wins!

Today's Tendril...

For the artistic mind on the go, pocket notebooks are the perfect little keepers (and concealers) of creativity.

Dedicated to my Notebook Brother.

Today's Tendril...

Don't sweat the small stuff, the saying goes.

But what a better world it would be if people actually took a little time out of their busy schedules to do so.

Today's Tendril...

Doubt is like a pause button.

Use it wisely.

Today's Tendril...

Construction and constriction — they differ only in "u" and "i".

Questions in Time

What are the analogs?

Can you find them?

What are the variants?

Are you one of them?

What are the answers?

Do you have them?

What are the choices?

Can you make them?

What does tomorrow hold?

Sleep, then arise and forge it.

Tomorrow ever after — and within.
(The tendrils within.)

Tomorrow ever after, amen.

Today's Tendril...

Books — they wear their cobwebs well.

Unlike technology, which is so...

temporary,

transient,

bursty,

like fireworks in the night.

What is "magic" of the highest order?

A miracle.

Today's Tendril...

Ugly duckling, worry less about your reflection in the pond, and more about those that would take great pleasure in making waves and leaving you in their wake.

Today's Tendril...

Idealism and perfectionism are lofty and alluring, but easily turn into monsters and harsh task masters when left unbounded.

Believe (Christmas 2015)

-click image for larger version-

Signals are corruptible, as are people.

Sequences aren't tamper proof, and neither is the collective.

Information is subjective, and can be subjugated, just like the masses.

Trust, but verify.

And always sweat the details.

Today's Tendril...

To fight or take flight,

Is simply a choice.

To SCREAM or be silent,

Only you can find your voice.

Today's Tendril...

Use your brain and your strength, but don't let your heart become black ice and don't let your soul become stained with hate.

Never abandon prayer; not to spite the naysayers, but in spite of them.

And through it all, make certain that it's known, come hell or high water, "Don't tread on me."

// Tuesday, December 08, 2015

Today's Tendril...

Cherish the memory.

Protect the moment.

Pray for the future.
