take all these, shap'em, bring'em together and sand'em then,
when you're finished you got a boat that hopeful is ready to float

Welcome to the boat house



Here is where all that happens is contained in the sawdust on the floor and the
preceding buzz, whir, and schsusuh

Time to enjoy some gravity

Remember what it all came down to?




The illusion of being superior engenders the need to prove it; and so oppression is born

Juice for Life

ah...the juice, not just another great restaurant in Toronto's Annex, no, it's much more...it's life's sweet nectar. As I drink it, there simply is nothing quite like having enough to fill the tank...


It's not rocket science, Einstein...enough of any substance of quality that imparts identity and vitality is one's own hidden ingredient; it is, in essence, only natural and contained inside the otherwise solid, human animal or plant, therefore extraction needs to happen to utilize it and fill one's own true core with goodness.

Cheers to enough!

FEAR blah!

do you have enough of your own damn blah?!

Does it move you? or, prevent you from living something greater, or worse?
Take stock! It could be a good.

Do you...

Azuela

What moves us is what men call ideals; our actions is what men call fighting for a principle

Kindle this

how easy it is at times to be careless with what we say or do...funny that we can spent as long sometimes confabulating (need vs. want vs. wish) as forgetting our tendency to appreciate the essence of healthy relations, although it would appear there are definable fundamental ingredients to our own growth through time.

All this one needs first is the challenge and circumstance to see things a little differently; its been said one thing that's a "for sure" is change afterall; evolution is not, but that too could be encountered once chance, and change, including the fraughtful, is an acceptable part of one's own perspective


...be it through one's own experience which inspires an interest, one's own meaning of "be the ball" becomes us and we are most effective to kindle and nuture the kind of support we ourselves and each other need, want and wish for...

It feels like you know me. Perhaps like seeing the sun rise again, its among my greatest desires. To know another well with as much gratitude...

Though challenges may be unceasing, along side another with complementary trajectories, full of hope, and will and the fortitude to know a collective capacity differently, maybe we'll remember the way back to belief and succeed again and again...

Not just spinning our wheels...




To you who slows down long enough to remember dreams yet fulfilled, what is more important, and the ways to initiate new pursuits, I wish you Happy Birthday!

May you continue to release your inhibitions, and realize its within reach to enjoy the spin and potential held within each and every full revolution. I love you.

Think about it


You’re one of the lucky one’s if when not given the choice anyway you adapt to whatever just happened to create that which just changed – it’s hard enough sometimes getting used to being forced to see things differently, let alone getting used to 'the difference' itself...without questioning how long any change lasts, or defining the cost with regards to our mind's eye for better or for worse...

...like so many ‘eyes' view’ still not yet familiar to us, we choose to see it how we do,

or if when we accept the sensation as it is told on the tube or on the page (like this bolg hist) the mind sleeps without a true intent to explore one's own imagination - if we do not choose then we begin to imagine less until something is lost or worse

...and yet only when we see through situations ourselves completely, do the real-life human fictional qualities become clear enough to straighten one's own new mind's eye - benefits all-right-round, even the gentleman considering his lesser fortune from the sidewalk watching reflections of life passing him by benefits...

Wouldn't you like to know it!!!

Enjoyable evenings


Enjoyable evenings

We went out for dinner to celebrate, raised glasses, laughed until our bellies were sore with it. She insisted we would want to. Told us that she had a new job and she was doing everything now peice by peice.

I look forward to our next enjoyable evening together.

Nights wondering

There are nights in the forest of words when I panic, every step into thicker darkness, the only way out to write myself into a clearing, which is silence.
Nights in the forest of words when I'm afraid we won't hear each other over clattering branches, over both our voices calling.

In winter, in the hour when the sun runs liquid then freezes, caught in the mantilla of empty trees; when my heart listens through the cold stethoscope of fear, your voice in my head reminds me what the light teaches.

Slowly you translate fear into love, the way the moon's blood is the sea. - Anne Michaels
