Monday Morning Meditation

Mondays are a gift

Beginnings: great potential

How will you use it?

Wednesday Morning Haiku

time’s motion

irresistible

spring

Two days until my job ends and I begin the next chapter of my life. Mixes sadness and excitement into a strange cocktail. 

Thursday Thoughts

Find hope at endings

As they’re a new beginning

Always move forwards

As I move through another period of transition, I focus on the possible. I gain energy from that, driving me forwards. Yes, there are frustrations, challenges, and road blocks, but remember the goal. Always focus on moving forwards.

Grace and peace to you my friends!

Today’s Black History Month Meditation: Gwendolyn Brooks

Cherish each moment. Life’s too short. And there are no “do-overs”. 

James Baldwin: Today’s Black History Month Poet

James Baldwin Quote

This Baldwin poem resonates with me. Love’s grace comes with great power, inspiring fears and conquering cowardice. 

Nightly Haiku

the motion of night
street lights hidden by the fog
birds are now asleep

Wednesday Morning Haiku

seeking make it great

longing for beauty

Seeking Confidence: A Haiku

seeking confidence 

channel Earnest Hemingway

a bad ass poet

Well, I believe this is better labelled “senryu”. The roots of my malaise? This feeling of inadequacy, that i should be doing something great, followed by debilitating, negative self talk. I thought a great poets who have a great bearing. Hemingway captures that confident bearing, which I seek to install within me perfectly.
