The Grass Withers And The Flower Falls

All flesh is like grass
and all its glory like the flower of grass.
The grass withers,
and the flower falls,
but the word of the Lord remains forever

1 Peter 1:24-25

Yesterday Once More

you stared at us strangely
but after we had walked away
you hurried to the sign
and looked up at it
as though you were wondering why
we were examining it so intently

I hope you found your shard of beauty yesterday

The Monday Project

We wander on the left side

Collecting shards of beauty
To piece together the earth

The straight road ahead calls
And after the hand hits 12 thrice
My eyes are full

But I wonder if I have missed
The beauty that lies on the other side
In secret places I cannot reach
Because I chose the road ahead

We breathe in the air of what we never knew

Disinfect until Very Clean after romping around, sitting on the road, petting tumbling cats and generally, having a very lovely day. 

 

The Fear of Mediocrity

"I don't want this year to just be another change in the numbers on the calendar, quantifying the moments that have passed and the ones to come; a cacophony of days where each might as well be other. Because I think, and I want to think, that it could be so much more if only I were brave enough to make it such." (August 25, 2008)

"Help me not to dwell on yesterday, or worry about what will happen tomorrow; But to live each day for You, in all things, big or little alike.
Let not the dust of the earth blind me to that that has true and eternal value and put perspective in my eyes that I may have the wisdom to discern the important from the urgent and the bravery to do that which I must." - August 26, 2008

Oh dreams, surely you were meant to be more than just.
