Nature (Us)
Working at a hardware store, you get to see things that give you perspective. Working in the garden center of a hardware store, you get to see more. I am sure this place is some sort of kingdom, and, or movie. It is surely the most honest place in the…

Energy
Things are beginning to happen Behind the scenes the movement is continuous Life of all kinds in an orb of nutriment Swimming swimming, dancing, playing Jumping, falling, running, sitting We are changing with the seasons We are her She is us That’s something we all seem to lose track of…

Imagine
Imagine a world without boundaries Where birds fly above, and carbon swims below Moss covers the ground, and the deer hear to know Cracks from the sticks, ruffle from the branches Life is happening all around Feet are in the ground Greens of heaven softly twist in the wind, over…

Conception
time rushes past before we even know what’s happened time rushes past before we even know what it is thinking it is wasted by minutes when we waste hours every day by being crude, it is wasted by being selfish, it is thinned we take for granted everything we do…

Petting Dogs
Why do we allow people to pet our dogs? It’s more than just a common occurrence, it’s infectious. I’ve seen plenty of people allowing strangers to pet their dogs. And henceforth, a lot of people asking to pet strangers dogs. This is the COVID era people – maintain 6ft distance…

Separation
Does anyone else feel trapped? Like your phone has more control over you than you do? Or that the job your in takes more than it gives? Trapped may not be the best word, as there seems to be a separation between you and the other thing, but yet still…

COVID Releasing Mental Health
The pandemic has put us through many arduous endeavours. At first working from home was kind of fun, but as the months went by, lasting longer than expected and hoped for, we are getting quite tired of it. This pales in comparison to those who grieve and those we have…

Old
Rejoice in getting old. The days grow brighter and the nights become longer but shorter than the days. Things don’t get much harder, nor do they get easier. Rejoice in getting old. As the sugar is sweeter and the kisses more tender. Getting old should not come with signs of…

The Easy Way Forward
We are bred to take the easy way forward. To save energy – physically and mentally. Our surviving hunter-gatherer forbearers have provided us with this evolutionary feature. Where saving somehow turned into what’s easier. We consort to hosts of easily accessible mental biases, like categorizing people and places so that they’re…

People
What else really matters? After all your dreams have either failed or succeeded. After you’ve gotten everything or had everything taken away. After your thoughts have subsided into mere whims on what you want and what you are looking for. When you get what you want and realize it still…

Busy, Real Busy
What does it mean to be busy? Is it measured by the time of day or the amount of effort? Or both? Perhaps it’s what you compare it to? Your normal schedule or something. Nevertheless, I think we can agree that when someone is busy, they don’t have time to…

Greed Eating Our Environment
It’s not really just that. As we live in an evolving complex world, there are perceptibly millions of factors that could contribute to nurturing a problem (billions more if we include the obvious), but these factors can sometimes be narrowed down to things relating to us; how we feel and…

People Who Will Wear Masks After COVID
Are you going to be one of those people still wearing a mask after COVID? Not likely the medical kind, the crappy, a-couple-of-uses-only one. No, the people who will still wear a mask after COVID will be wearing the fake GUCCI bedazzled masks or the cheetah or tiger print. Maybe…

Playing with Snow
While driving I came across this wonderful feeling. Passing by a school, on a day when school was closed, I saw three kids playing in the snow. The small melted piles of white, sparkled with mud, lay holding on to their former larger selves from the snowfall yesterday. The kids…

Over it
Willingly going to my downfall For no reason at all, really. Other than it excites me Disconnected is no longer a word that suits it Not many do Other than over it Other than addicted In a place where no one can see but you No matter how hard you…

Reason
Ancient waters flow freely, under a glass ceiling. So thick barely any light escapes. It moves beneath your feet, independent from everything else, a constant migration. Independent from you, from your thoughts, and feelings. It does not care, it does not stop, it does not feel. It just does things.…

Here or There
Do we all have purpose? What is purpose? A burden we dare not accept that our lives lack meaning, the only meaning being the ones we create, a human illusion, discarding our lightness of being we love suffering, we love pain, for without it – for most – we are…
