It's been a crazy few weeks, and I didn't do this the way I wanted. No excuses- I'm back at it.
Gamble Everything for Love
If you want what visible reality
can give you, you're an employee.
If you want the unseen world,
you're not living your truth.
Both wishes are foolish,
but you'll be forgiven for forgetting
that what you really want is
love's confusing joy.
--
Gamble everything for love,
if you're a true human being.
If not, leave
this gather.
Half-heartedness doesn't reach
into majesty. You set out
to find God, but then you keep
stopping for long periods
at mean-spirited roadhouses.
--
In a boat down a fast-running creek,
it feels like trees on the bank
are rushing by. What seems
to be changing around us
is rather the speed of our craft
leaving this world.
Today's Mantra: Memento mori
Remember you are mortal. This life is fleeting, and will come to an end. Rather than being depressing or fatalistic, though, it is a call to concentrate on what is important. We have finite time on this world. We must remember to show love to those around us, take chances to get where we want to be, and appreciate the beauty of this world.
