A Beginner’s Mind

Remember when you first came to know and experience something, some place, or someone new?

It was all about learning their borders, nuances, and idiosyncrasies.

Learning was enough.

And while your questions here may have led you to some answers, you were always led to another series of questions to open you up into the unique and vast beauty of this person, place, or thing.

Together you became something. Something that had never been before prior to this relationship of experience, awareness, and connection.

The end was never “in mind”.

The thrill was at hand and in the now.

Oh how we need our cup to overflow with never-ending beginnings.

The Trenches

Where the rubber hits the road.

Where the submit button sends your post.

Where the streets have a name and where the streets have no name.

Where the speech leaves the stage.

Where music hits the listeners ear.

Where hope is received.

Where an experienced is enjoyed and simultaneously joy is exchanged.

All…

…is…

…a by-product…

…of one’s romantic waltz in the trenches.

If you own a callus, it was not gifted to you, it was earned.

But you will call it a gift.

What Is Priceless?

Whatever your answer is, therein lies what must be the pursuit of your days, life, family, and business.

I’ve chosen three priceless pursuits…experience, meaning, and fulfillment.

Which then leads to another question: What’s the cost in not pursuing such things?

I’m afraid none of us have deep enough pockets to answer that question.
