1173!

This is not just a random number. It’s the number of days since I was diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer! Wow! Isn’t God great? I am not bragging about a paltry 1173 days compared to the 23,212 days since […]

Reciprocity!

-drifting slowly but surely towards the crossroads of infinity!-my mind is steadfast in acrimonious assault-the reveries of thought continually blossom in my head-am i dreaming or is reality a dream?-something happened unexpected in my life-the pronouncement of the end put […]

Of Walking Dead!

-there are we who go by the sobriquet walking dead-for long ago some of us felt the same-so at first we hide in plain sight-among the myriad of everyday faces-blending in but with secrets-afraid to reveal that morsel of knowledge-the […]

Don’t Take Life For Granted!

That’s a simple phrase. “Don’t take life for granted!” Hey, but as we all know “that’s easier said than done!” Everybody has used those terms  from time to time during the course of their lives. Myself included. But now I […]

The Signs! (Holiday Post)

for the idol in the bay is standing lesser in state of grace-the powerful’s greed prevails the time so people are still asleep-pacify and sleight of mind are standardized beliefs-freedom in this day and age is no longer something sweet-we […]

Forgotten Memories!

-the further back memories go-the more ethereal they become-names of childhood friends remain unchanged-but now the faces are of ghosts-we remember our paths crossed-but forget the participants along the way-so now we shed tears of memories lost-and cry lo our […]

Past!

As we get older, the less conspicuous we become. Sometimes we’ll have the tendency to visit our old neighborhood making us recognize the fact that our lives have changed. Most times the familiar places we grew up in are no […]

The Piper!

-the scenes are set before our eyes-but now when viewed they disappear-the belief that we will never end-shows and leaves us with obscurity-for in the end we get what’s due-the piper must be paid-reciprocity is given and lo this means-things […]

Persistence!

-i would suffer no ignominious feelings during my battle-although my mind’s desultory in thought-humility abounds within my soul-in all actually i’ve been released, set free!-the barriers of my mind are broken-i can now feel life fluently-former pains can no longer […]

Proclivity!

My proclivity for life is now immutable! And it’s not just my desire for life, but the way I now live and love life! I say that my paths are filled with beauty because my heart is overflowing with love. I perceive the beauty […]

”Not Doing!”

Inexorably, there is evidence of intricate ways to fight and defeat cancer! Since I now have over three years dealing with this malady, I feel that my experience is laudable. Although medically still diagnosed with this deadly disease, mentally I’ve […]

You Must Keep Faith!

Statistically, every sixth death in the world today is caused by cancer! This makes cancer the second leading cause of death worldwide. (cardiovascular diseases is number one) This fact tends to make me realize the scope and magnitude of my […]

Music!
