Works out Perfectly

It can hurt how good things can be.
Jumps up on you, smacking you down.
The sudden gripping awareness
That what you thought was sweet
Was just a hint.

The opposite can fill your time as well
Your problems and your pain
Can become a soothing little note
Familiar and constant in the background
Never far from reach.

All the wanting and all the wishing
The time spent worrying or hiding
None of it alters or saves you from the moment
That you have to live in
That you have to live.

Shifting Still

Release, bringing the crashing seas
With their honest needs
Broken hearted fools
Bent on their own illusions

Guess they can’t see the peace
Over there, waiting
As it has always been
Classy and true

I used to live in the spaces
Between the acts
The small and mighty moments
Made all the better by the rest

The paths lead to many ends
I will steer towards the calm
But ready always to float
In the bubbly bloody red.

Spring Time Return

Pretty little things, swaying and moving

Fun little times, smiling with the rest

Past little chores, better for the effort

Bright and new and ready to go

Some still are captives to their weaknesses

Making some pay a price as well

But I have wandered and now returned

Improved as well

Time for More

Going Home

Just a quick comms burst.
Mostly another attempt to communicate with those who choose not to.
I will be back in Canada mid month, and end of month I will be in Ontario.
Contact me to facilitate plans for The Little Beauty and I to be able to spend time together.

Ok, besides that, it will be so good to be home. This was quite the adventure, but as all good travels, it will end, allowing for some reloading for the next.

I look forward to spending a day and catching up on all the great thoughts and posts I have missed while away.

Rock.
On!

Endings and Beginnings

Wishing for a happy day

Another year to the Little Beauty

Love and Miss you

And Hope that you will be given

What you should already have

Home soon

Onto the next adventure

A little Hi from over Here

Hey all.

I just wanted to pop in and say Hello!

And to wish all a safe and happy Holiday.

I hope that to all, comes what must and what should.

To me, a chance to say Hi to the loved ones far away.

To you, Fun Times.

Thoughts Until Next (Note for the Little Beauty)

I wish this was a perfect world. That people didn’t kill and hurt each other. That we all took the time to really think of the consequences of what we do and say. That we would empathize. Sympathize. Care and be fair.
And I hope people are not crazy. That they do not treat others badly just for the perverse pleasure. That even if they are being wrong, that they somehow, mistakenly, think they are being right. That even if you and I have been forced apart, that someday the crazy will be burnt away by the light of logic and even mindedness.
The truth though is that even in my limited experiences on this spinning orb, I feel that these wishes and hopes are in vain. That the world will never be perfect, and never could be. That crazy is just so deep in some people that it might just be all they are.
But that isn’t so bad. Perfection is an ideal, not a need.
These bent and beaten Wishes and Hopes are good. They let us dream. And it is our dreams that change the world. Our dreams give us reasons to keep on keeping on. They let us get through pains and tears.
Because some things in life are bad. Wrong. They must be met.
Like war. Like not seeing you.
So, some must fight.
I have never been a tough guy. Never been much more than a aging child. But I see things so differently from a couple of years ago.
My life has been filled with loving family and friends. I have laughed more than most. Then things went rough. Part of that was the changes in my family. The breaking. The lessening. The loss.
Then I went looking for the edges of this world (Hint: there are none. The edges are in us).
Then you. Nothing was the same. Everything was better, even the frustration of dealing with fools.
I Miss you. I Love you. I have tried, so much. Constantly. And will continue. This is, like all the battles, all tied into the idea that the world can be better if we try. It is the trying that matters.
I don’t want to be overly dramatic. I have every reason to believe that we will again share a smile. I just like to make sure some thoughts make it to you no matter what.
Ta at to all. See you soon.

Information is
Not knowledge
Knowledge is
Not wisdom
Wisdom is not truth
Truth is not beauty
Beauty is not love
Love is not music
Music is the best...
