"Never love anyone
who treats you
like you're ordinary."
Oscar Wilde
"The soul that
can speak
through the eyes,
can also kiss
with a gaze"
Gustav Adolfo Becquer
" Look within.
Within is the fountain
of good
,
and it will ever bubble up,
if thou wilt ever dig.”
Marcus Aurelius

Narrative is imposed
god how we need that story!
Thread of Sense,
Ariadne
The Maze of Multiplicities
makes us dizzy like
Space Sickness.
How we need a solid
standing.
What is the plot?
What role have we got?
How to find our spot
in the sun
Grab some
fun on the run.
We long for significance
importance, really,
to someone
Few understanding
the Powers we're commanding!
Terrible simplicity
who among us
can sit in the sunny anteroom
not fearing, wondering,
worrying -
missing afternoon's
Mist of Light,
so fearing Night
That we miss
the butterfly.
Thanks for sharing YOUr story!

Cats absorb the sunshine and live in the moment better than any person I know. A furry lesson for me.
