Just another WordPress weblog
…because I just needed to see these:
and these:
and this little guy:
and this peaceful path:
and my moody Florida sky:
Sometimes I just need to see some beautiful things…..
After all:
“The sky is the daily bread of the eyes.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson
So, don’t go to bed hungry!
Peace.
…God help us if it is:
“From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs.“ Karl Marx
Please think.
Please look at history.
Please don’t be ignorant.
Research what’s happening in Argentina right now….and what is being discussed, here in America, right now as it relates to seizing private pension funds.
We may be angry at those who are wealthier than we are, but if the government can seize someone else’s private pension fund….whose to say they won’t seize yours as well.
Think about it……..
We can’t afford to be ignorant.
Peace.
Robert Frost says, “Being a poet is a condition, not a profession.” I understand this. Wanting to write…actually, needing to write can feel like a weight that presses upon me until I just give in and pour out my soul. So, tonight when I try to sleep - if I haven’t written some inane thing or another - the words will roll around in my head like marbles…
The thing is, when I’m in a poetry kind of mood, I rarely feel like writing down whatever is in my head. It’s like the worst possible time to write…to talk, even. I should take a vow of silence when I’m feeling poetic…or at least offer free anti-depressants to all of my readership before they are subjected to my musings.
So, I’m torn. Maybe I’ll just write a poem and never publish it…just keep it to myself. I have hoards of old poetry in boxes around the house already anyway…what’s one more?
…I’m still fighting it - this condition of mine - for the sanity of the masses, I will fight against the rolling marbles…
You’re welcome…Happy Wednesday.
Peace.
I know better than to blog on Friday night. I mean, what’s the point? No one will be doing much reading until Monday anyway. I don’t really have anything to write about anyway…so why worry if no one reads…
I’ve been reading quotes again to pass the time until I have something to blog about. Mother Teresa is always one of my favorites:
“Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.
Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat.
I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.
Let us make one point, that we meet each other with a smile, when it is difficult to smile.
Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier.
Peace begins with a smile.” -Mother Teresa
So, tonight, that’s all I have…a few words…and a smile.
Have a beautiful weekend…
…smile at someone. 
Peace.
