Now is easy, why


Now is easy
and

why do we make our lives hard?


So much to do.

And who told us to do it?

Ah, la,
what a world

what a sweet
amazing
challenging

world.


All you need
is some disaster
loss
mess
up
to see how powerfully
healing
and soul saving
the
present can be.

Any time we go there:
Resurrection.

Good.

taxes and death


garden park in spring. 5 years of work there, and maybe it'll last
and
endings have their own amazing sweetness, too





TAXES AND DEATH

both good
in their own way

even better:
death
as a reminder:
we are alive
NOW

as i write
as you read


even better:
taxes
a
reminder:
it's complicated to live in
a society
and this one
this whole civilization
is.....

fill in your story


but
let's just say this:

not geared around
happiness
or now
or nature
or love


oh, well


we get to point ourselves
wherever we want to

and sometimes that's a lot
of work
and with the ease
and learning of being
present

can be done

life is good



in the moment
we can put our attention
almost anywhere:

love

curiosity

wonder

peace

happiness


and out of the present:

we are trapped
in whatever nonsense
wants to take us over

or thoughts we believe
in

or bad feelings we want to sink under


big choice

always
choice

amazing
gift

good
