Many are enamored by what I do, only the few who truly know me are enamored by who I am.
I have met the Angel of Death many times and looked him in the eye; made him flinched, because I refuse to die…
God is my father and Earth is my mother…I spring eternal, merely transforming each life to the next.

Every year we take just one day to celebrate love and call it Valentine’s Day. Singles dread it for obvious reasons and even couples dread it for having the pressure to “prove” their love. The only ones really looking forward and benefiting from it are the businesses selling flowers, candies, jewelry and restaurants who inflate their prices. Wouldn’t it be better to celebrate love the other 364 days if you truly love someone?

Even in the midst of winter, with heavy snow falling outside, my sad little orchid has chosen to bloom again. All the beautiful blossoms it once displayed fell off within two weeks when it was first brought to my office, sitting next to the chilly window and blown by the draft of the ceiling vent. It stood naked for months with two bare stalks, I thought it was doomed to be my flowerless plant until it would wither away like my past orchids, no matter how much I try to nurture them. This little plant has received no special treatment since it first arrived, simply water every couple days and sits in the same spot it has always sat next to the window…yet buds of hope and resilience are sprouting in defiance of the cold, a reminder of the internal beauty that was always there and forgotten, it just took time to emerge from those scrawny bare stalks. I would imagine this must have taken even more effort than to bloom on a sunny spring day; and the effort was all its own, nothing from its owner…

The period between Thanksgiving and New Year is filled with emotions, ranging from the joys and excitement of a child in anticipation of gifts to the desperate despair of loneliness of being single. I heard this song by Brandi Carlile for the first time…and a good reminder that “the heartache can wait” as I go to my happy place…at least mentally.

Lies are easier with words than with actions. People say things they don’t always mean, and mean things they don’t always say.
Young children are not only adorable but also consistent with their words and behavior, as adults we think it is our job to teach but in this case they have something to teach us.
Musings of a little guy in the Big Apple, randomly poetic and poetically random. I'm just a simple guy, living in a complex metropolitan world, finding my place, while making friends along the way.

A long day during a short business trip;
I sit in The Edgewater’s lobby, warmed by the fireplace flames while staring out at the passing ship;
The gentle waves reflect the glistening rays of the setting sun;
Some seabirds swoop by the wall of windows, a few gracefully glide high up in the sky;
Looking down at me, the little suited man, as I slump exhausted in the wooden chair on the other side;
Whose entire days center around career and taking care of others;
Caged by the metal exterior, and nature-themed interior walls of the famous hotel where The Beatles once fished from;
Envious of the freedom and simplicity that is true nature, whose goal is simply to live.
