Journey

     One’s options in this world are as vast as the horizon, 
     which is technically a circle and thus infinitely broad. 
     Yet we must choose each step we take with utmost caution, 
     for the footprints we leave behind are 
     as important as the path we will follow. 
     They’re part of the same journey — our story.

Belief

For those who believe, 

no explanation is necessary;

for those who do not believe,

no explanation is possible.

Creativity

     One of the many paradoxes of creativity is that 
     we cannot know it fully, yet we can deeply experience it 
     within ourselves.

Why I write

Shadow 1 (2013, 6.18), a photo by rchoephoto on Flickr.


     I write because I seek to re-order all that comes 
     to me through my physical senses, my emotions, 
     my spirit, my intuition, onto a page so that I 
     might learn to experience it with integrity, 
     respect and honour.

Change

I can be changed by what happens to me.

But I refuse to be reduced by it.

Challenge
