revel in the
present,
look not to the
future.
reading palms
& searching
stars can only
go so far.

who & what
we are
now
is radiant
enough.

'they confound the radiance of the stars of heaven with the radiations which a duck's foot leaves in the mud.'
[victor hugo, 'les miserables']

your words
sang sweet
some peace
this heart
drank dear.

[exploring
love in
many
contexts..]

bonjour, amor.

i'm finding it hard to discover things to write about these days.

lately, my days have been filled both with children's temper tantrums and naively beautiful sayings, with frenzied and furied phone calls, as well as rejoicing and searching voices. with my thoughts swinging from searching for a place to thinking i have been found.

in a word: instability.

a new house, new neighborhood, new jobs. a group of friends who are all finding our own place. jobs taking time, discovering who gives us comfort and love.

but i feel this is a time of self discovery, of stabilization. realizing that i am me, and being accepted for who we each are is something that everyone is seeking.

so anyways. felt the need to update for a moment. and now i'm over it. off to the beach and seeing some dear ones tonight.

wishing for complete honesty in all parts of life ..
kristin.
