Haiku

 The smoke cleared briefly

Overhead the geese honking

August is over

Change

 The only lasting truth

Is Change.

∞ = Δ

Why am I doing what I’m doing?  To make my tiny corner of the universe a better place.  The world changed and I’m rolling with those changes, adapting as quickly as I can before my species become extinct.

I am in the place where I make my stand.

I am not who I thought I would be, not yet, but I’m not done trying. I seek wisdom, grace, healing, peace. My intention is to walk lightly on this planet. I seek to preserve my little corner. I seek the courage to share what I have with trust and compassion. I accept that I have no control over anything or anyone but my own body, heart, and head.

I am doing what I am doing because I still can.
