Till the earth until we die… War in the middle east today, and, I don’t know why. Oxen strains plough shears through the sand… Starving children in Africa today, and… I just don’t understand. Patter the clay, new home, brick by brick… Money men killed another forest today, and… I feel sick. Drought this year, [...]

Meditate… with eyes wide open, of, and in, your own truth. Be in, and regularly check, the validity of, your own reality. You are real, but you are only that, nothing more, nothing less, just more or less… entwined… inter-connected, a child of universal success. You are Loved… Some say they Love you, some demonstrate [...]

It’s in the dream you’ll find it, don’t ask why, or look to the sky. Trust… It’s in the dream you’ll find that place, that peace, that ever-lasting solitude, look, listen, learn, don’t ask why, let it wash over you… It will come. It’s in the paradox you’ll find it, the twilight, the grey zone, [...]

A starting point for the theme of this post is ‘personal knowledge’… It’s somewhat difficult to explain, but I’m going to have a ‘crack at it’ anyway. The original theme was ‘knowledge, what a blessing’ – but as you can see – just the language of that could easily be confused into some quasi-religious rubbish… [...]

It would be very rare that I’d find something on Jim Lehrer’s NewsHour which I would feel like passing on… So, there you go, the old cliche holds… “there’s a first time for everything”. The piece is about poet, Alberto Rios. And I particularly like these from ‘Words over Water’, a ‘Poems of Public Purpose’ [...]
