A little dream become a bigger one,
with a new spirit in an old soul.
Many things happened to her,
but she was able to handle all of it.
Sometimes she feel so happy,
but sometimes she feel so badly.
She was,
She is, and
She will be,
the best version of her.
For a lovely soul, happiest birthday. I wish all the best for you.

From 16 years old me,
To 17 years old me.

Both light and shadow
are the dance of Love.

Love has no cause;
it is the astrolabe of God’s secrets.

Lover and Loving are inseparable
and timeless.



Although I may try to describe Love
when I experience it I am speechless.

Although I may try to write about Love
I am rendered helpless;
my pen breaks and the paper slips away
at the ineffable place
where Lover, Loving and Loved are one.



Every moment is made glorious
by the light of Love.

Too lazy to be ambitious,
I let the world take care of itself.
Ten days' worth of rice in my bag;
a bundle of twigs by the fireplace.
Why chatter about delusion and enlightenment?
Listening to the night rain on my roof,
I sit comfortably, with both legs stretched out.

what if i live out every dream i have? what if it's everything i hope for and then some? i hope i find majority of my wants in the same places i find what i needed.

of course i'm scared. of course i have an ample amount of fears. but i will have to face them all someday. no one can live in a nightmare just as much as they can survive a dream.
I'm an astrologer and I've been thinking about my saturn return lately. I am scared of my future but this helped I think.

I don't think I've have ever lived a more perfect October night.
                                          

I hope I'm not jinxing it.
Nothing has happened yet
I'm actually kind of bored.
All I've done is scoop cat ****
And take the trash to the curb.
I hope the wind carries the ashes off my porch.
I finally saw beauty in the mundane. this is my first poem! :D

These BEAUTIFUL NIGHT SKIES are
so CALM and SERENE,
so PEACEFUL AND QUIET,
like a MOON LOVERS
SWEET DREAM!!!
The DARK SHEETS of
NIGHT, gives to us
DELIGHT,
of the TWINKLING
STARS that light
up the DARK NIGHT!!!
The STARS ALL DANCE,
In the sky of GLOOM,
Then comes
the ILLUMINATION,
of a BRIGHT LIT MOON!!

Do not conflate mortality and morality.
You can die a sinner,
Or you can die a saint,
But we all die just the same.
Thinking about the notion that being "good" can save people. Feeling like it's better to strive to be moral for the sake of being moral and not because there's some promise at the end of the line. Death comes for us all eventually.
