Love, easy to say, but not always so easy to do.

Children off to college. We cannot hold on too long to anything of this world, even what is dearly heartfelt. Nothing was ever ours alone, to claim and keep.

Unfortunately, even if the mind comes to understand, what went wrong with a relationship -- the heart never will.

Trust in God...is easy, perhaps for God...but sometimes us men have great difficulty with the concept. In God's time...keeping long track with my antique watch.

Christ is our personal Redeemer of lost-and-found. Let us pray....

What is trance? Is it just zombie like? Or can illness, hyper activity be a form of trance? Transfixed, habitual, immovable -- Are we not all, in a deeper sense, in varying degrees, a trance of self?

True love never need apologize. Love is its own reason enough.

Really, war has few faces...if there were more, there would be far less numbers. Faces, with hearts and families.

As bad as it is, it is better for the growing awareness. Maybe from the awakening, the pen mightier than the sword, us priests of poetry, the rarefied hearts of humanity, can make a positive contribution.

Indeed, each of us a pixel, of the human psyche...but important enough to Christ who allowed Himself to be crucified for all, no exclusions. We may see ourselves as mere pixels, but God sees us, perhaps, as part of the Greater Body of His Christ portrait..?! Who am I to argue with the One who gave me Life, and so much living opportunity? So much power...my conglomerate able to beautify or destroy an entire world?

True Love, deep abiding love, is eternal. Omnipotent.

Fine fabric of poetry closer
the frayed edges of language, loose
threads of thought we light, to keep
from unraveling. What lasting value,
if any at all, rises in the smoke, is
sustained by memory of the lyrical
flash.

Dreams are as great a mystery, worth exploring, as all of our awake others.

Knowing is maybe less important than living? Certainly we are not here, to teach God anything.

We travel and see through the shallows and depths of many. Poetry is the Poet's shared ark of survival and discovery.

Would not want to be God, being blamed for everything...when I gave them a world.

Broken hearts are worse than broken bones often. Love is a gamble...and the heart our greatest fortune to lose.

Christ is our washed mirror image. Christ, our Brother, was not simply introducing Himself to us...but introducing us to our perfected self.

We really are, naturally isolated from one another, whether we like it or not. No one could get inside of our heads, without damaging the Divine Product. Only God knows our hearts. God is personal to each of us... No two anything, exactly alike. At least, not from my experienced life.

Life is a process...death is a process. We die to the old. I will always choose mercy. Redemption. God can make nothing that will eventually fail. It is impossible. He is incapable of failure..even by proxy.

The one who wrote, Truth is self-evident, was correct...profoundly in touch with spiritual Truth. I have said this before, but I will say it again, if I have to convince myself, as to whether something is right or wrong, go though a litany of gymnastic thought -- it is probably wrong! Truth doesn't require knowledge...it does not require proving -- it is like God's presence -- we just know...and that fact is unshakable, regardless of the profound consequences.

Man's ego can turn the best wine into bland water. Just keeping us animate.
