  • The end of the maker’s midlife crisis

    What do you do?
    And why, my friend?
    For whom does your effort
    Begin and end?

    Is it for love,
    For truth, for gain?
    For fleeting joy,
    Or to ease some pain?

    Do you create
    To leave a mark,
    To light the way,
    Or spark the dark?

    So ask yourself,
    When all feels new:
    What drives your soul,
    And what drives you?

  • I Got a Name – Jim Croce

    Like the fool I am and I’ll always be
    I got a dream, I got a dream
    They can change their minds but they can’t change me
    I got a dream, I got a dream
    Oh, I know I could share it if you want me to
    If you’re going my way, I’ll go with you
    Movin’ me down the highway
    Rollin’ me down the highway
    Movin’ ahead so life won’t pass me by
    Like a north wind whistlin’ down the sky
    I got a song, I got a song
    Like the whippoorwill and the baby’s cry
    I got a song, I got a song
    And I carry it with me and I sing it loud
    If it gets me nowhere, I’ll go there proud
    Movin’ me down the highway
    Rollin’ me down the highway
    Movin’ ahead so life won’t pass me by

  • Earthseed: The Books of the Living

    Here we are—
    Energy,
    Mass,
    Life,
    Shaping life,
    Mind,
    Shaping mind,
    God,
    Shaping God.

    Consider—
    We are born
    Not with purpose,
    But with potential.

    – Octavia Butler

  • Flow mode with Supergloss

    Join me in my dream,
    leaving the body
    and entering the stream.

    I’m floating on the waves
    in the center of the universe.

    One with the rhythm,
    one with the stream.

  • The revolution is in your mind

    Have you forgotten when there was a time when false information wasn’t so rampant in the sphere?

    A time when you weren’t questioning everything you hear.

    Do you remember?
