like the one about the man who
walked down the street
& turned into
a drugstore.
There was some secret in the moment
of that turning—when he has one thing,
became another—
that I return to again & again.
The day she stopped being
grandma and turned into
that madwoman.
The day my sister stopped being
& never came back. Perhaps there
was an instant between her secret [...]

“We are what is missing from the world”
~Fernando Pessoa
Some questions have no answer.
Raised, they hang there in the mind
Like open mouths, full of something missing.

it’s nice to know
that when I’m feeling low
I can come visit my own blog
and laugh and cry and be soothed
find hope and remember

it’s nice to know
others have come here and
felt better for it
they’ve also laughed and cried
found hope and remembered
and [...]

“We have not even to risk the adventure alone, for the heroes of all time have gone before us. The labyrinth is thoroughly known. We have only to follow the thread of the hero path, and where we had thought to find an abomination, we shall find a god…Where we had thought to travel outward, [...]

I sat in a coffee shop the other day and heard this song play
overhead. Instantly it took me back to the day I first heard
it. It was at a celebration of a friend’s life. It still gives me
goosebumps to hear it today. It is absolutely one of the
most inspiring songs I’ve ever heard – so [...]
