Tea, Rain, and Wild
What a time it has been
That I’ve written some words
To be read by the one whom I fancy
His name, there are three
I’ll work them in subtle
The letters of he that I love
The first is so tall, with Stonehenge essence
A drink to be had with the sun or moon
With friends or in sought out solitude.
It is a ticking clock, it is a tree, it is turning soil over
The first letter of he that I love
The...

dutch: hygge
german:gemutlich
No word really exists in the english language that fully conveys what either of these words does.. The basic meaning is one’s striving to obtain an ultimately cozy, friendly, warm way of existing. It can be applied physically or emotionally. (have you seen www.kinfolkmag.com ?)
So here and now I set a goal for the fresh year ahead ( it might just be an...

when
some more snow leaves
its space in the clouds
some minutes move
and the dust settles in
and all that is mourned
or gone
well, really
I am just beginning
to believe this is true..
all of these days
I miss you friend
see the sea
have you ever for so long gazed into the color of your own eyes that you saw gentle neon seas? vast and welcoming oceans?

“It is very important that you only do what you love to do. you may be poor, you may go hungry, you may lose your car, you may have to move into a shabby place to live, but you will totally live. And at the end of your days you will bless your life because you have done what you came here to do. Otherwise, you will live your life as a prostitute, you will do things only for a reason, to...

and cold in this house
a little bit lonely too
piss off winter blues, piss off.
Khalil Gabrin
For what is it to die but to stand naked in the wind and to melt into the sun? And what is it to cease breathing, but to free the breath from its restless tides, that it may rise and expand and seek God unencumbered? Only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing. And when you have reached the mountain top, then you shall begin to climb.
And when the earth shall claim your...

“What an astonishing thing a book is. It’s a flat object made from a tree with flexible parts on which are imprinted lots of funny dark squiggles. But one glance at it and you’re inside the mind of another person, maybe somebody dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, an author is speaking clearly and silently inside your head, directly to you. Writing is perhaps the greatest...

where I am
These lyrics are singing my spirit right now. This is where I am. Thanks fleet foxes! (the show was incredible)
I was raised up believing I was somehow unique Like a snowflake distinct among snowflakes, unique in each way you can see And now after some thinking, I’d say I’d rather be A functioning cog in some great machinery serving something beyond me But I don’t, I...

this song is great.
and now another note to me (following a long day...
What complexities surround me, and astound.
Layer upon layer, yet all so magnificently encompassed by a simple truth.
Hey self, breathe on back to that truth. It is pure and lovely in a constant state (I know this yet), still so easily I become distracted from it.
Often I eminate these distractions, natural results stemming from the negative.
Refrain from projecting those things, don’t...

(while I’m on my soapbox)
Please go to www.rioslibres.com. They want to put six + dam(n)s in this beautiful place in southern Chile. If the only Patagonia you’ve heard of is the outdoor clothing brand, think again. This is such an incredible place. The reasons why these dams shoudn’t happen are pretty self explanatory.

On Talking Kahlil Gibran
You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts; And when you can no longer dwell in the solitude of your heart you live in your lips, and sound is a diversion and a pastime. And in much of your talking, thinking is half murdered. For thought is a bird of space, that in a cage of words may indeed unfold its wings but cannot fly. There are those among you...
