what is perfection

contentment with

your imperfection

It is the moment
you took of your reading glasses
and try to see..but can not
and you smile..let it be
or
it is the moment
you read every word
feel its meaning
and pass it on for me

Sometimes everything has to be enscribed across the heavens so you can find the one line already written inside you. Sometimes it takes a great sky to find that small, bright, and indescribable wedge of freedom in your own heart. David Whyte

The Scribble Scrawler

Looking ahead, without looking back (too often)

flights of fancy from New Zealand

You're never alone, if you've something to share

Scatteredmockingbirds

All you touch and all you see / is all your life will ever be
