A Knock On My Window

Never before did something so little mean so much. A simple thing really. Not that others hadn't ever done something like it, but not with such a greeting. Warmth to a sick soul. And that was the difference.

Maybe again sometime? Maybe today?

Leave No Trace

I suppose it's good in the woods. But I suppose it's good for other things too. Like trying to ditch the cops. Not that I know what that's like. Not that I know what this is like. But I lie. The fold down mirror. The place for one. Things in a box. An entry table stolen. Cloak and dagger. And truthfully I've still got little to show for it. So I get it. Of sorts. And satchels.

And that's how it would have stayed... if no light came around. With the dark. And a lot of it. Both. And those woods I don't intend to visit again. He doesn't either. There's the great part. You never camped there. No scraps. No fire ring. No leftover stumps. No footprints. So I'm going on. And I'm prepared to go it alone.

But I promise there's a place for you too. I'll see you when you get there.

Don't Overreact

I'm not even sure that is a word. Or how it's spelled. But I know what it's like. Like someone putting their weeds in your bucket.

Breathe

 Why does it keep coming back? In through the nose... out through the mouth. The fight between day and night. Laman and Lemuel. Bildad and Eliphaz. Can you actually be patient with someone you know is trying? Someone who is failing miserably but is putting in the last? Still waters. Glass. No salt flats. No mare. No. But to freeze that lake.

It's real you see. The sea of tranquility.

A Good Deal More

Hi.

Than meets the eye. Like A to D. Sample it if you'd like. There's not much variation.

Not Much for Quotes

It’s possible to see with compassion. It’s possible to see the faults of another and wish those faults could be mended–to wish that a person could be healed of their struggle or hatred or fault. It’s possible to see one unseemly incident and understand that that’s not the whole of someone. ...
...This is the way to see the truth about others and ourselves. The more goodness we find in one another (and it is there if we look for it), the more goodness will grow within ourselves. Think of it. We can see others as WE are, and it can be a beautiful sight. - Jennifer Koski

Diane of Old?

Right now you're going to work. I hope you get some breakfast in you. It's good for you and that's good for you. I get the thought. But it isn't really mine. And it comes, but it isn't really mine. I pray for you. Maybe your cheerios or your drive or your hair that won't quite cooperate or that person that doesn't seem to get it. No. I'm not the Police... just a mouse in the city. And yes, Roland, I do have a long way but I'm Going On. Smile for the new day. Don't fight it. Find out what you can give to it. The feeling may be faint, but trust what God has told you. Trust what He now tells you.  Believe in it.

And I promise there's a place for you. Drive safe. ly
