It Matters
Eventually, the purple on my foot will recede.
Life, Observed
Trouble is we live in a world that is forever putting us in boxes

Life doesn't get any simpler than when a delightful living being shares its day with you.

I don't know if there's ever been an ideal time to grow old.
Free range time is an antidote to the monkey mind.
Aspects of history we could, maybe even should, bring forward to the here and now.

Like ebb and flow, peaches and cream, night and day - human and divine are perfectly balanced partners - one needs the other to be complete.
Unsure of my treasures. A piece on a plate instead of part of something whole.
In the best of our humanity lies Grace.
