Reflective Quote: Sometimes we must channel our minds to do what we really don't want to do, in order to be where we dream to be. clr

Friday, November 14, 2003

part of me sees the big picture, the other part only a sketch; it's not all that attractive, so. . . why should I feel compelled to understand a thing so foreign??? these precepts allure me with their secret history their charming promises many have succumbed to with abandon yet still i hesitate to grasp, and risk not being a part of the whole. © 2004 by cynth'ya lewis reed

And yet we are a part of the whole, whether we risk it or not... and inside that whole, little universes in ourselves. I like this exploration.

a cool interpretation of how
we all view our lives in moments
some moments in the moments
we are lucky enough to capture
in words and images

thanks,
donna.
