Poem of the Day

You Are There

by Erica Jong

You are there.
You have always been
there.
Even when you thought
you were climbing
you had already arrived.
Even when you were
breathing hard,
you were at rest.
Even then it was clear
you were there.

Not in our nature
to know what
is journey and what
arrival.
Even if we knew
we would not admit.
Even if we lived
we would think
we were just
germinating.

To live is to be
uncertain.
Certainty comes
at the end.

Poem of the Day

To My Wife

Some times
when we grab an hour of love
luxuriously in the late afternoon,
the growly baby snoring in the next room, her sisters at the mall,
I feel as if I'm robbing the gods, who have,
some say, all the time in the world.

by Bernard Horn

Wild Wild West - the first stop

Out of spur, just like those pioneers back in early 19th century
They left the East where lives were flourishing along with factories
For something unknown yet so hopeful
A new place in the vast and empty West, surrounded by the bisons
Where a new life can be born out of one's creation.

Heading to the end of the West of America
Beginning tonight 5 hours drive to Flagstaff,
First site of the month, Beaver Creek Campground
In the heart of Coconino Forest, sheltered by cottonwoods
Within drive, there lays a beauty; the red Sedona.

new mexico is special to me. one of reasons is that it has taught me to appreciate diversity and brought me to a place filled with wonderful kids that never cease to teach me one thing everyday.

our parents, they are a different kind of people. i've heard this before that parents understand what children do not say. Does that strike you as something beyond your comprehension?

Really in fact we all know that it is not that complicated, it is simple if we pay attention to their instincts. it's the instincts of parents that make them special and different from any other people in the world.

Always remember our parents raised us the best they could. :)

2:28am

tonight is one of those sleepless nights. figured it was time to change my blog site into more fitting layout that somehow explains my life at this moment.

so what did i do tonight? i wrote an email to one of my oldest friends that i've lost in touch with ever since i entered college. im losing myself in the world of pictures, typical of me.

and i also am sure that i will write more blogs.

I will be 24 soon and I want to do something different for myself.

I want it to be MY year.
