“ What better way to tell time than through the body of content.”
This quote was based on a suggestion made by Michelangelo, from the book: The Agony and Ecstasy (author Irving Stone).
A good thought to keep in mind. Especially when frustrated by the rapid passage of time. Can you relate?
We will not be remembered [...]

…evil!
Deep, suffocating fears.
Lingering doubts.
Memories, old and tarnished. Those that serve no purpose.
Our enemies.
Sometimes just:
This day… hour… or moment in time.
Conquer!
hold tight
stand firm
or move beyond.

Another gem from my desk calendar:
“We grow neither better nor worse as we get older, but more like ourselves.”
I think there is a lot of truth in this statement.
And perhaps a nudge, to consider the person we are becoming along the way?
Another late summer photo to enjoy.
The flowers have really held their own, this year. I’m amazed [...]

Be Still…
when life is overwhelming
waves of heartaches and obstacles
litter the long path ahead
just, be still
hold on
listen to the small but resonant voice
the way to inner calm
and clarity regained
take the time
close the door
the noise and
muddled voices
will still be there
upon your return
it is never the wrong time
to heed this unfailing truth
nurtured and safely stowed
unscathed [...]

Summer is a good time to remember.”

two lives
running parallel
two hearts
scathed by the trials of time
life, happened…
the passing parade
mere scraps to feed on
the soul left
wanting
waiting
And then…
the intersection
new direction
charting a course
hope, renewed
eyes on the horizon, now brilliant and bright
the storms will pass
we are strong, together
come
what
may…

Sometimes…the runner stumbles.
Just before the finish line.
The long-awaited goal ahead.
In plain view.
A bitter moment.
A loss, this time.
Sometimes…the runner stumbles.
In life and on the burning pavement.
Feet touch down.
Another mile comes and goes.
Dreams too, that we reach for.
And some, we never gain.
Sometimes…the runner stumbles.
We pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off.
Life is a marathon.
Twists and hazards along the way.
Win [...]
