. . . incarnation of "Moment" . . .


Hey you down there on the ground
Don’t you think that it’s time
You should fly
And do you consider the cost
Of the pride that you wear
Like a smile

Take this moment
You’ve got here
You may not
Get another try
Sometimes only
One chance comes around
At a time

It’s two that’s the number required
For the dance that we do
To get by
A few drag you into the mire
But they’re strong
Many wiles they devise

Doomed if you don’t learn
Farce is what you earn from the tragedy
What have we to gain

By being stubborn?

More Steps . . .

Have you not heard his silent steps?
He comes, comes, ever comes.

Every moment and every age,
every day and every night he comes, comes, ever comes.

Many a song have I sung in many a mood of mind,
but all their notes have always proclaimed,
`He comes, comes, ever comes.'

In the fragrant days of sunny April through the forest path he comes,
comes, ever comes.

In the rainy gloom of July nights on the thundering chariot of clouds
he comes, comes, ever comes.

In sorrow after sorrow it is his steps that press upon my heart,
and it is the golden touch of his feet that makes my joy to shine.
-Rabindranath Tagore

Oops. . .

I overheard an uplifting little story recently . . . one of two men of indeterminate age says, ‘You seem to be enjoying yourself though, I must say. It’s gotten you out of your box.’  The second responds, ‘Well, I don’t like to be too philosophical but you must live in the moment.  This is only gonna happen once.  You have to enjoy it because it’s not going to come around again.  November 8, 2014 is here now and won’t be back tomorrow. ‘


Truly inspiring.  Only problem is . . . I overheard it on November 6.

Plan? . . .

Gadolfini!  Dead.   At 51.  Only fifty ONE!!  (Yesterday's news- maybe.  But the loss of a human life that will require some time and some grieving for many family members.)

Is this part of a plan by some almighty Santa on a golden throne in the sky? I think NOT!   Any supreme being that would plan such a thing would be an arbitrary, hateful being.

Does such tragedy make us stronger?  Maybe.  That is up to us.  But a PLAN!!??  C'MON!!!!

Every time I learn of such a tragedy, it becomes even clearer to me  that every waking moment must be savored and every opportunity for joy, good, beauty and humanity must be taken.  Our time here is short and no one knows what follows.

Blood Brother

Barrooms sure have a funny way of bringing loyalty out in a man. Buy a drink and tell a joke and buddy, you've got you a friend.
But keep a good eye upon that friend because he really doesn't give two hoots. And don't say anything about his Mom, his girlfriend or his army boots. I'll be your Blood Brother, by your side through thick and thin. I'll be your Blood brother, just as long as I don't have to bloody my hands.

Walked into an automoshowroom. I need some wheels but got no money to spend. When a guy with an ugly tie walks out and acts like he's my long lost friend. I said hey buddy I've a purpose here. And if you please I will accomplish my goal. And don't you slap me on the back again. 'Cause if you do I might just lose my control. I'll be your Blood Brother, by your side through thick and thin. I'll be your Blood brother, just as long as I don't have to bloody my hands.

So please be careful when you meet someone who'll make a promise at the drop of a hat. And don't provide them with encouragement. You will regret the day you offered them that. 'Cause everybody has some empathy. But just how willing and how far will they go to really help you when the chips are down. Can they be trusted half as far as you throw them? I'll be your Blood Brother, by your side through thick and thin. I'll be your Blood brother, just as long as I don't have to bloody my hands.

Time. . .

sure flies when you're having fun.
(If you're a frog, time's sure fun when you're having flies.)
Time loves a hero. (But only time will tell.)
If I could save time in a bottle.
Takes a licking and still keeps on ticking.
Time takes it's toll.
Time is free, but priceless.
Make every hour in the day count.
Time discovers truth.
Time is but the stream I go a-fishing in.
Time heals what reason cannot.
Time heals all wounds.
You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people
all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.
We didn't lose the game, we just ran out of time.
Truth is the daughter of time.
The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted.
Lost time is never found again.
Time is money.
All that really belongs to us is time; even he who has nothing else has that.
All my possessions for a moment of time.

No, I did not make these up. They are all quotes or paraphrased quotes from
many who were much wiser than I. (or is it 'me'?)
