A deep thinker of sorts in silence and resolve can certainly look like something else.

Opinions were shared in concerns and contempt and the lesson I got: I was ready when I was ready.

I suspect no different than most looking for answers to the greater questions. I took my time leaving inner world.

The precious advice was about work and money and how I was wasting so much time…

Are you sure this life is to be spent in such certainty of deeds and financial acquisitions?

Their thrills cut the morning darkness. The expectation of light brings me back. To today and whatever that brings but for now we wait for the sun whose arrival is always announced…

They seem to be more common than uncommon, in fact they seem to be everywhere…

More than just cats and dogs, or fat and skinny…

More than just curious, it seems somehow strangely tolerant and accepting.

Gord wrote, ” He said, ‘Bring on a brand new renaissance… cause I think I’m ready.’ ”

Lisa said to her father after he offered her something from the barbecue. “Do you have anything there that hasn’t been brutally murdered?”

Homer answered “I think the veal died of loneliness.”

I’m just guessing Leonardo had a sense of humor.

Rolled out in front of dainty feet. The delicate glide with practiced gait. A force pulls them through the smiles. Adoration manifests applause long after the spotlights cool and the carpets are rolled by anonymous strangers into trucks and dark storage.

JordanPeterson says that the meaning in life is RESPONSIBILITY.

By my own experience I’d have to say he has a point.

When I truly didn’t know what I wanted… I chose to what I called “Party”

Party was an excuse to get high which in my case turned to blind drunk because I don’t have an off switch before unconsciousness.

The clarity of responsibility works for me and I suspect I’m not alone in this.

More than I could ever need.

Desire for more is replaced by greed.

I’m Greedyguts!

Easter Sunday I want the store.

Give the lamb and the Lions roar…

I’m Greedyguts!

I want it all, much more than need.

Don’t know why it’s how I bleed.

I’m Greedyguts.

Bit off more than I could ever chew.

It’s something old and nothing new.

I’m Greedyguts!

The stage was set.

The sun went down.

The dancers dance.

Throughout the town.

The sun came up.

The band still played.

The sinners slept.

The Saints they prayed.

I bought an umbrella cause of rain.

An aspirin for the pain.

But when the sun returned…

Is when she escaped again.

I will wake up early and wear something bright and pick up my daughter and marvel at her sight.Eat drink be merry; however no wine will be poured; she’s to young and I don’t drink and he is Christ the Lord.There will be no talk of bunnies we will be talk about the Cross and what we are grateful for and why we feel loss.It’s early and it’s late and so much to still achieve… I hope I have the time and in my mind you never leave.Dennis Mantin
