SIDEWAYS EIGHT PROJECTS

Happy Friday everyone! Just to clarify, this message isn’t vaguely intended for anyone but myself as an individual. I need these reminders, and it makes me happy when my stuff resonates with others who also struggle every single day just to get through the day. It is my goal as both a poet and a photographer to help with the horrific mental health situation in this country, including my own. Thank you for reading and or sharing my stuff. Love to all involved.

Where have you been residing my entire life? Why have I only found you now? The residence heretofore has been limited to strife. The dwelling at present is expanded to wow.

I’ve realized two issues that I have had to grapple with consistently in life. One is issues with timing, and the other is issues with expectation. True change for the better in my own life will not occur on my personally desired timeline. It will occur on the desired timeline of the great spirit I choose to revere as God. The more I simply am able to let go of my own timeline, according to my own individual agenda, the more I am able to participate in the overall flow of the universe in its unfolding as it should. Secondly, the vast majority of woundedness, betrayal, disappointment, sadness, and anger that I have experienced has been due to my own unreasonable or inadequate expectation. People show me their true colors. Situations reveal themselves in advance to those who are truly tuned in. This world can be a chaotic mess at times, but I can aid that process (and my responses to it) by being extremely mindful of the timing of the world and its agenda. This too shall pass as they say, and when it does, I shall have my writings as personal totems to remind me of the path on which I am supposed to be.

Everyone remembers the woodchipper scene. Everyone who has seen it will remember it for the rest of their lives. Welcome to paradise I say. Welcome to turning every single conversation and interaction into a great scene from the movie of your life. I believe in you. Lights. Camera. Sound. Action!

Even in the clutches of a world bent on profit over people, and evidence everywhere of wicked plots and abuses of power, we can still find the silence and the uplifting thought. We can combat this world with the words written on our hearts which were intended to be shared with the sky. We can, you and I, be replenished amidst this disturbance and provocation. We can stand our ground and lift up what is sacred in this world. We can be enveloped by the love we give eachother; the love we allow to flow through us…

There are lines to be drawn everywhere. We earn the lines on our faces by refusing to follow the line which represents the shortest distance between us and someone we love.

On this rainy hump day, let us have an eye full of love, and a brain full of empathy. May the troubles of the day find their resolutions. May the conflicts of the day find their reconciliation. May the people of the day find their love.

Every single one of us is on a magical quest to tame life, control life, prolong life, protect life, and share life. What is your quest?
