following your own path

by Paul Klee

The shape of a pebble. (haibun)

            The ocean is everywhere. She kisses the shore, she floats in clouds. The ocean exists even in the shape of a pebble on the prairie floor. She was here before man, indeed, the first land creatures came from the ocean. Water is life, we need it like we need the sunlight.

Walking into the cold sea,

the world seems to swallow me.

Life is wet, and brief.  

James Lee Jobe

            We have more possibilities available in each moment than we realize. 

 

Thich Nhat Hanh

your life is unique 

follow your own path 

and leave the naysayers behind 

your life 

your choices

your karma

James Lee Jobe

            No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not the same man.

Heraclitus

            That I never fail to see that even mistakes are grace. That I seek the equal, middle ground with everyone. That I always value commitment, support, and stability. This I pray.
