Come Fly Away

 The bluebird carries the sky on his back

Henry David Thoreau

 

Take wing

Take flight

Seek morning

Seek light

 Seek truth

 Take wing

 

 Take flight

 

and that's poetiquejustis 

If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, even there your hand shall lead me, and your right hand shall hold me.

Psalm 139

Take a Hike

Creativity is work that goes someplace

Michael Drury

Going in circles gives you exercise

But you never go anywhere

 on the other hand

gives you new vistas and exercise

Is your day an exercise in old ideas

Or are you taking the high road of creativity

Maybe it's time

 and that's poetiquejustis

And He has filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, with intelligence, 

with knowledge, and with all craftsmanship...

Exodus 35:31-32

 

Walking the Line

“The question isn’t who is going to let me; 

it’s who is going to stop me.”

Ayn Rand

 Not everyone along the way

Is interested in your success

No matter

Not everyone cares about

Your goals 

No matter!

                                      Because as long as the person you see in the mirror is
                                                                  committed to your goals you will

 then there is no stopping you

so keep calm

and

and that's poetiquejustis

And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us

Hebrews 12:1

 

Staying Put

  The foolish seek happiness in the distance, the wise grows it under their feet.
- James Oppenheim

Wander and seek

Reach and yearn

Seek the world over

but someday you will learn

That the place you will be happiest

 is the place to which you can return

Theresa of Avila said

All things must come to the soul from its roots

from where it is planted

and that's poetiquejustis

"They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. 

It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit."

Jeremiah 17:8

The Infinite

 

 We must accept finite disappointment but never lose infinite hope.

Dr. Martin Luther King

We hope

...that there is sun behind the clouds

...that there are flowers sleeping beneath the snow

 ...that kindness will overcome all

 And because we hope

There is hope

Remember...

Hope cannot be taken away

It can only be surrendered

And that's poetiquejustis

“Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.” Romans 5:5

It's a Miracle!

 

“There are only two ways to live your life. 

One is as though nothing is a miracle. 

The other is as though everything is a miracle.” 

– Albert Einstein

A Miracle

A Miracle

A Miracle

Look in to one of these

You know what you are seeing?

That's right

A Miracle

That's you 

and that's poetiquejustis 

 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; 

your works are wonderful, I know that full well.

Psalm 139:14

Melodious

 

The inmost in time
becomes the outmost
R W Emerson

Your actions are the books

people read about your life

Your words are the melody

                                                         that gets stuck in their heads

Today

When you are the  author of the good

and the troubadour of peace

You do not have to be concerned about the reviews

Because you are a best seller

 and a major hit

in all the ways that matter

and that's poetiquejustis

May the words of my mouth
and the meditations of my heart
be pleasing in your sight,
my Lord and my Redeemer
Psalm 19:14

Deja You

 

Rita: Do you ever have déjà vu?

Phil: Didn't you just ask me that? 

"Ground Hog Day"

You can close your eyes

You can close your mind

You can try to stop the clock

But think of all you will be missing?

Do you really want life to be a rerun of all your yesterdays?

 I didn't think so!

Go!  Solve the mysteries around you!

and that's poetiquejustis

For God says, "At just the right time, I heard you. On the day of salvation, I helped you.

 Indeed, the "right time" is now. 

Today is the day of salvation

2 Corinthians 6:2
