in time of daffodils

in time of daffodils(who know
the goal of living is to grow)
forgetting why,remember how

in time of lilacs who proclaim
the aim of waking is to dream,
remember so(forgetting seem)

in time of roses(who amaze
our now and here with paradise)
forgetting if,remember yes

in time of all sweet things beyond
whatever mind may comprehend,
remember seek(forgetting find)

and in a mystery to be
(when time from time shall set us free)
forgetting me,remember me

~ee cummings

My work has been about making a record of my life that no one can revise. I photograph myself at times of trouble or change in order to find the ground to stand on in the change. You get displaced, and then taking self portraits becomes a way of hanging onto yourself. ~ Nan Goldin

believe what I believe,
perceive as I perceive,
look, experience, examine,

just once,
Understand...

Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.

“Relationships are treated like Dixie cups. They are the same. They are disposable. If it does not work, drop it, throw it away, get another. Committed bonds (including marriage) cannot last when this is the prevailing logic. Most of us are unclear about what to do to protect and strengthen caring bonds when our self-centered needs are not being met.”

― Bell Hooks, All About Love: New Visions

One ought, every day at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture and, if possible, speak a few reasonable words.

Scared and sacred are spelled with the same letters. Awful proceeds from the same root word as awesome. Terrify and terrific. Every negative experience holds the seed of transformation.

"I AM, not Was, not yet but NOW,
YOU ARE, not when, not where, but here,
WE ARE, not then, no there but at this moment,
One with light, strength, abundance and joy.
Together as our journey collides WE thrive.
If you cannot reach-climb upon my shoulders brother, sister.
If you cannot walk, Grab hold and I will assist
When you doubt, share your woes and I will show you only grace
There is no mountain that cannot be won when we tether our ropes together!"
-ME (1/29/13-958am)
