In This Moment...




In this quiet moment, I just want to start off the new year with some simple things which keep tracking through my mind and thoughts.  First, and foremost I resolve to stop looking back over my life as if I must regret the past with all of its moments of circumvented gratitude and times of emotional uncertainty - which follows everyone from time to time.  I also have taken an oath to the day.  To let the moment of truth be the guide which permeates all of my being as I contemplate the options that life brings to the table.  In all things to give thanks....  Yes, I know it sounds quite trite.  However, the silent glow of some mystical times past haunts my inner being with a wisdom which surely must bring with it an inner beauty which will give solace to the haunted soul.

As the moon arises in all its pale splendor - like a bloodless light above the wreckage of some long forgotten godless temple, my mind goes blank.  To wish the past be here again, as if we can go back and fix it all? No!

I stop and gaze at the beauty of some other light from another star from distant lands and paths unknown.  We travel on - in step with time, which follows on the thinnest line.  A hair-breaths shadow looms over head as if to show the way - for weary souls do thirst for light besides a tideless sea.  And when our destiny is all but known perhaps the day will bring - some shady breeze from beneath the sun, in sands that sparkle in the night, surrounded by shimmering silver moonlight.
