pushing his stone
up the incline of his crimes
accomplished nothing
absurd hero happily
tortured by rote banality
Writer Lynne Sargent

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

Looking ahead, without looking back (too often)
flights of fancy from New Zealand
You're never alone, if you've something to share
All you touch and all you see / is all your life will ever be

I am where the valleys are deep, the mountains are high, and the wind moans through trees...
But how long until the happiness fades? Life offers many useless stones to push up hills and dares to call them expectations of normal life. Keeping up with the Jones’ may make us popular with the Smiths or even with our kids but in the end it kills us.

And so we push, lest quitting, the stone roll back to crush us . . . There’s no way out of this life alive . . .

Sometimes I just don’t get things, meanings, images, whatever–so I have a couple options: I can “like” and move on; say “wow”; or say “hmm”–which means I’m still pondering (perhaps 6 months later)….
