Add: good First

If you think of life as a series of pluses and minuses, then consider this: instead of trying to eliminate all of the minuses in your life, why not add some good first?

Case in point: I find myself frying bacon while make a kale smoothie.

Upon sitting down to eat both together and notice a paper eyeball on the table.

(Smoothie contains: pineapple, mango, kale, apple, and celery)

The man I love is great. His heart is deep, full, rich. His wisdom comes from his devotion to truth and following it within himself. He is full of possibility and capability. He is inspiring.

surrounded by

I live amidst vibrant color, screams of new life, a voice without words, endless optimism through trial, error, doubt, disbelief, and wonder.

My world is gone, upside down, simple but deeply new.

I am surrounded by myself, my fears, my weakness, and new-found strength.

I am eternally grateful for color.

A dear friend

Today was a nice day

It started slow and swell, involved macaroni and cheese, massive help, and LED bulbs. Does it get any better?

Look up

Look up if things are a bit crazy
Look up
See, you can't walk while you are looking up

I think this is a poem
Or just a statement
To slow down for a minute
