Self. Brotherhood. God. Zeus. Communism.
Capitalism. Buddha. Vinyl records.
Baseball. Ink. Trees. Cures for disease.
Saltwater. Literature. Walking. Waking.
Arguments. Decisions. Ambiguity. Absolutes.
Presence. Absence. Positive and Negative.
Empathy. Apathy. Sympathy and entropy.
Verbs are necessary. So are nouns.
Empty skies. Dark vacuums of night.
Visions. Revisions. Innocence.
I've seen All the empty spaces yet to be filled.
I've heard All of the sounds that will collect
at the end of the world.
And the silence that follows.

I'm alive, I believe in everything
I'm alive, I believe in it all.

Waves lapping on the shore.
Skies on fire at sunset.
Old men dancing on the streets.
Paradox and possibility.
Sense and sensibility.
Cold logic and half truth.
Final steps and first impressions.
Fools and fine intelligence.
Chaos and clean horizons.
Vague notions and concrete certainty.
Optimism in the face of adversity.

I'm alive, I believe in everything
I'm alive, I believe in it all.

At 6:47pm on February 18, 2009, Erin Michelle said…: Thank you Mary. Your answer gives me the idea that abundance isn't what stays in your life but what you receive and continue to pass along. A friend sent me a card that said "you can have it all in life, just not at the same time." And I just thought she meant we were apart and now I realize it applies to shoes and so much more! Thank you again.
Love, Erin

At 10:55am on February 15, 2009, Erin Michelle said…: Such excellent advice you gave about abundance. I would guess you have some wonderful ideas about forgiveness and letting go too. I'd love to get your opinion. I get stuck on living a life of joy and abundance without taking more than my share. After all, I truly only need one pair of shoes. Carlos must have a little of the devil in him to tempt me so! I'm grateful you joined. Thank you.
Love, Erin
