All that happened
perhaps needed to happen.
It's the nudge, rather
the push that catapulted
a much needed change, or an overdue
realization or motivation
from the hard lessons
transformed into a stronger
braver person
in the mirror.

In retrospect
-
Today mattered.
Being present
and choosing kindness
make up
a day well spent.
Just two-
no need to complicate
being human
and humane.

Ikigai
Each day we seek
What’s the secret
Or at least a formula
Making a bet
In living perfect.
But we don’t need
To overcomplicate,
Nor worry, nor rush
We’re not early, not late
Rather, we’re simply here
In its purest state.
A life of meaning, of joy
Is not a far-flung dream
But a daily choice.
Smile & try
Love & help out
Eat right, do right
Cultivate presence,
And resilience
Learn to embrace
The imperfect
And stay curious
Living with purpose.

Let Your Words Fly
There’s nothing
as daunting
as a blank page.
But once you get
the words out
do you have what it takes
to let them soar
explore and be explored
to see how they’ll get far
beyond the confines
of your own little world
Not merely marking the page -
but making your existence felt & heard.

Creating, One Day at a Time
Today’s a chance,
A choice, a beginning.
Regain your balance,
Find your footing.
Breathe for breakfast
Laugh for lunch
Reflect in the evening.
Today’s a chance
Today’s a dance
Today’s just once
