I wonder if the tree feels sad...sad when the leaves go away... fall... How do they part? Does the leaf send a signal? A chemical that starts the pushing away? Or the tree to the leaf? Do they prepare each other for their inevitable separation? And what about the joy in spring? When the weather changes again and the buds begin to sprout... As pregnant as she is with life, does the tree feel the pain, the joy as new life springs forth? And when the leaves come again...do they need just a little time to get to know each other again?

They say "never forget." Never forget what exactly? That I was scared as f*$k?! That I'm supposed to hate someone I don't know? Hate someone that looks a certain way? Hate an ideology? Keep all that in my body...never forget the fear and the anxiety? Hate someone who hates a so-called freedom that I'm not sure I have? Hate someone who got the best of you in this grand, deadly game of tit for tat?! The truth is that I will never know why 9/11/2001 went down...But I know that I'm tired of being a pawn.

Listening

Listening requires a bit of silence, a bit of quiet...

An affirmation

I alone am responsible for my thoughts, my feelings, my happiness, my peace, and my joy.
