It is my daily prayer and ardent endeavor as a volunteer teacher assistant,

What is given needs time to illuminate the world.
Effortlessly, nothing gives birth to a greater truth
and understanding. We are of the same blood but
yet so distant and different. We need to speak and
listen. Reinvent ourselves and connect. Illuminate
this dark world.

~ keep your mind awake ~ and in constant wonder ~
quote by poet
|
Within the great family of pleasure, lurks a distant cousin of pain.
|

Is time and individual event, a communal event or both?
It is both, since individual time line does change constantly through our decisions.
Communal time lines is when we collectively decide to change the course of an event. As you see, time is not isolated on our decisions but it is incorporated in each of us. It is understood that we are connected to one another through not only time but through planes of existence. We Create our own reality.

Uninhabited hills ...
except that now and again the silence is broken
by something like the sound of distant voices
as the sun's sinking rays illuminate lichens ...

"Childhood is our Memory
Success is our Destiny
Death is our Constant truth
Love is our need
Giving compassion is our inner Humanity
Satisfaction is our Desire
Knowledge is our Power
True Leadership is our Motive
Sex is our Erotic Fantasy
Because we are Human or creature."

all whisky and pills could not stop,
memories,
unremembered events,
inconstant plot holes,
the passage of time,
inconsiderate.

If you are constantly seeking to hold others down . . . how much time have you lost looking up ?

Love requires patience while passion races;
must my heart bleed constantly before it expires?

Be of understanding, I Cassandra will not put all my eggs in one basket. The beauty of my love and it's depth for who I encounter will always be there, knowing change is the only constant in this Universe, I therefore must be fluid as the gentle flowing river and as the gentle wind changing direction but always true to who I am.

A esperança de hoje ser melhor que ontem pode ser eternizada.
A esperança se eterniza quando a sensação esperançosa adoça o hoje e entrega o amanhã. A esperança pode ser eterna quando se ama mais e mais. A esperança é eterna quando a pessoa a todo instante se dá esperança.
A esperança nasce do ato de nunca julgar nada. De promover o perdão sempre. De mais e mais amar. É assim que você se torna uma pessoa esperançosa e a esperança se eterniza.
