Outside the window
The predawn darkness remains
Cursing the alarm
Guess I have a case of the Mondays. Feeling exhausted still. Don’t feel i got enough rest over the weekend. What about you?

All Hail Speed!
All hail performance!
I recklessly pursue speed
Losing quality
I always feel pressure to get things done faster. Speed is everything! Except it’s not. Without quality everything collapses. Pressure starts to build for both, yet they live on the opposite sides of town. Therein lies the challenge, methinks.

The First Step Towards Greatness
Happy Monday…er….Thursday to you! I’ve been out of my office until today. It’ll be a challenge to return. Looking forward to 2019.
A Week’s Movement
A week; a moment
Blur of daylight into night
Flows into winter
In this world that values busyness, it’s hard to focus. Mindfulness consumed by the God of more, of efficiencies. It’s easy to lose sight of what’s important and end up losing far too much time focused on the wrong things. When our actions don’t build towards something greater, we lose so very much.
Tonight’s Haiku: The Movement Of Seasons
My dreams keep moving
In an arc around the sky
Autumn’s now winter
Moments of Clarity: This Evening’s Haiku
While I look skyward
Moments of clarity shine
This cold autumn sky
A Thursday Wisdom HaikuÂ
Each day is a gift
The path that leads to greatness
Starts within this truth
Go and do great things my friends.
Early morning thoughtsÂ
Early morning thoughts
As I prepare for my day
Focusing my life
November’s Theme: Gratitude
It is November
We focus on gratitude
Growing our soul’s grace
Seems appropriate, the month of Thanksgiving, to focus on gratitude. Today’s haiku sets the stage, reminding us of the value of gratitude, of connection, of interdependence.
