“I feel like I've swallowed a cloudy sky”~Haruki Murakami,

“There's always another 

storm. 

It's the way the world works. 

Snowstorms, 

rainstorms, 

windstorms, 

sandstorms, 

and firestorms. 

Some are fierce 

and others are 

small. 

You have to deal with each one 

separately, 

but you need to keep an eye 

on whats brewing 

for tomorrow.” 

~Maria V. Snyder

"Vision is the art of seeing things invisible." ~Jonathan Swift

"The substance of the winds

is too thin 

for human eyes, 

their written language 

is too difficult 

for human 

minds,

and their spoken language 

mostly 

too faint 

for the ears." 

~John Muir

"The years teach much which the days never knew." ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Upturned toward the sun,
eyes closed.
That color
and warmth
I see
and feel
is the soul
on fire.
If only it remained
when again my eyes opened."

~Jeb Dickerson

Chasing the light.

"Losing an illusion makes you wiser than finding a truth." ~Ludwig Börne

“What is the feeling 
when you're
driving away from people,
and they recede on the plain 
till you see their specks 
dispersing?
-it's the too huge world vaulting us,
and it's 
good-bye.
But we lean forward 
to the next crazy venture 
 beneath the 
skies.”
 
~Jack Kerouac

"Put your ear down close to your soul and listen hard." ~Anne Sexton

"In solitude, where we are least alone."
~George Gordon

"Sunday clears away the rust of the whole week."~Joseph Addison

"Look at the
trees,
look at the
birds,
look at the
clouds,
look at the
stars...
and if you have eyes
you will be able to see
that the whole existence
is joyful."

~Osho
