Infinity….
Life, collective and connected…
Be still
Be at peace
Be open
Speak not with your voice
He need not words
There is no map for life
No path chosen before you
If you lose your way
You will find a new road
One can not be lost forever
Eventually you make your way
In this place you will recognize
In this place you will start anew
Throw away your notions
Accept what is, and what will be
To create Life
To experience Life
To be Life
To give Life
As quickly as it grows
Is as quickly as it goes.
There is nothing more beautiful!
-Dedicated to my new nephew.05/18/07
-I wish you the world
-Dedicated to my father.12/18/06
-I wish you were here
(I know you are in some way)
I kneel down
My heart bleeding
My soul weeping
I feel Him
Entering my fingers
Blinding my eyes
I forgive Him
I understand Him
I need Him
Answer my thoughts
Answer my prayers
We have but one chance
We have but one question
How can someone do this? Hold and act on so much anger. What drives someone to take a life? This just goes to show, you never know. My sister made an excellent point. A nobody can become a somebody instantly.
What if…what if he woke and had a good morning? Actually felt good, alive. I feel sorry for him… He was obviously ill. He was obviously small. That doesn’t mean that this could have been prevented. Life is what it is, things are as they are.
As life unfolds and time passes, we have to learn from our mistakes. Don’t give up on others. Take a minute and reach out to someone else. We as a society have to open our eyes and hearts during the day to day, not only during tragedy. People need one another. We need to be nicer to one another, have empathy, grow as a society. Ignoring the problems will ultimately be our failure to Life.
I stumbled upon this…

Watch the video.
I dreamed I had an interview with God.
“So you would like to interview me?” God asked.
“If you have the time” I said.
God smiled. “My time is eternity.”
“What questions do you have in mind for me?”
“What surprises you most about humankind?”
God answered…
“That they get bored with childhood,
they rush to grow up, and then
long to be children again.”
“That they lose their health to make money…
and then lose their money to restore their health.”
“That by thinking anxiously about the future,
they forget the present,
such that they live in neither
the present nor the future.”
“That they live as if they will never die,
and die as though they had never lived.”
God’s hand took mine
and we were silent for a while.
And then I asked…
“As a parent, what are some of life’s lessons
you want your children to learn?”
“To learn they cannot make anyone
love them. All they can do
is let themselves be loved.”
“To learn that it is not good
to compare themselves to others.”
“To learn to forgive
by practicing forgiveness.”
“To learn that it only takes a few seconds
to open profound wounds in those they love,
and it can take many years to heal them.”
“To learn that a rich person
is not one who has the most,
but is one who needs the least.”
“To learn that there are people
who love them dearly,
but simply have not yet learned
how to express or show their feelings.”
“To learn that two people can
look at the same thing
and see it differently.”
“To learn that it is not enough that they
forgive one another, but they must also forgive themselves.”
“Thank you for your time,” I said humbly.
“Is there anything else
you would like your children to know?”
God smiled and said,
“Just know that I am here… always.”
