The other day I was walking in the woods when I came across an old man who I had seen before. He had been in the river re-arranging the rocks into the sacred heart of Jesus. We spoke for some time. I learned about his religion, Catholic Christianity. It was very interesting, and he was a very kind man. He has been working his whole life to bring joy to the people around him not only in Michigan, but in other countries. He lives outside of the commercial world. I wanted to say thanks to him for talking to me, and giving me something real to think about.

Coffee in the morning

with somebody sweet.

"We have a rocking chair
each of us rocks his share
eating muffin buns and berries
in the sunny kitchen window."

Be Confidant and Sure

"The Warriors Reminder

i am awake
my mind is free
i am creative
i love myself
my willpower is strong
i am brave
i practice patience
i don't judge folks
i give, not to receive
i don't expect
i accept
i listen more than i talk
i know i'll change
i know you'll change
i'll hold on one more day
i start over when necessary
i create my own situations
i am cosmic
i do not have the answers
i desire to learn
i am the plan
i am strong
i am weak
i want to grow
i know i will
i take on responsibility
i hide myself from no one
i'm on my path
warriors walk alone
i won't let my focus change
taking out the demons in my range

that's mama's gun"

Never more happy than when talking to my long lost best friend on skype!

Every day has a dawn.

Aurora now had left her saffron bed,
And beams of early light the heav'ns o'erspread,
When, from a tow'r, the queen, with wakeful eyes,
Saw day point upward from the rosy skies.
- Virgil’s Aeneid

Thrill Seeker

This little guy climbed all the way up the Sleeping Bear sand dunes so he could roll down! First he said hello to us though.

I met this bird one fall day. He wouldn't move no matter how close I came. I think he was freezing so I carried him home out of the elements. He put up no fight, not even a peep. I placed the bird on my kitchen table next to a dish of water on a branch I collected from outside. I had been up all night waiting for tickets to see Captain Kirk perform in Shakespeare's The Tempest, so I took a nap. When I woke, the bird had strength again to fly. I opened the porch and front door, and he flew away. I don't know if my interference was good or bad, but I do know the bird helped me.
