it is foolish work
to hope for difficulties
in an already challenging life;
difficulty will find us
but when it makes
its inevitable knock
upon our door
it will find us home,
ready
to make it through

Wealth
do not limit yourself
to the life in your mind,
open it;
experience your surroundings,
seek out the good;
give others a chance,
find they are more
than your assumptions,
give them the opportunity
to surprise -
and let yourself be surprised -
open yourself
to their stories -
listen,
hear them -
capture more wealth
than you had ever dreamed
for having let them in
Great Art
we are all incomplete,
unfinished masterpieces,
no matter our years;
there is no perfection here,
instead, the thread of an idea
of what might be
has evolved into this work -
this life -
through the years,
it only reaches its conclusion
in death
where many flaws are forgotten
as we are raised upon a pedestal
we'd never thought to climb,
only to be forgotten
in a short passage of time;
so it goes
with great art
