We had the time

An End

“It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end.”- Ernest Hemingway

Walking, waiting, being

On feeling everything

I’m fairly certain I mean it when I say that I would rather feel everything than nothing at all. Even though feeling everything, the full magnitude and strength of every event and scenario, is incredibly scary and tough sometimes.

These days I’m learning how to reevaluate what matters and what holds meaning. I’m also learning a lot about uncertainty and the unknown.

“The unknown carries with it a mirror of all our deepest, most inexpressible wishes. The unknown is the fatal proposition that a face seen across the room will always hold out to the known.” – Alain de Botton, On Love.

On truth

In the morning there is always a little more clarity.

These days I have found there is a certain hope and feeling that only comes with the rising sun.

“The truth isn’t always beauty, but the hunger for it is.”  – Nadine Gordimer

A memory and moment

“The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, nor to worry about the future, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly.”- Guatama Buddha

Some days are just more memorable than others.

Practicing being present and living in the moment helps me remember.

Landscape

“We are a landscape of all we have seen.” – Isamu Naguchi
