Paradigm shift



Problems that remain persistently insoluble
should always be suspected as questions ??????
asked in the wrong way.

Barr Trail Haiku





Golden butterflies fall in the warm mountain breeze. We have miles to go

keith

A beautiful day begins with a beautiful mindset




A beautiful day begins with a beautiful mindset.
When you wake up,
take a second to think about what a privilege
it is to simply be alive and healthy.
The moment you start acting like life is a blessing,
I assure you it will start to feel like one.
Time spent appreciating is time worth living

Everything is going beautifully Nowhere



Cooling off in Aravaipa Canyon

Do not ask where
we go from here
Nobody knows
Some think they do
but nobody really knows
anything
about anything

We are only gurgles
in the stream
and the stream doesn’t
know where it’s going
either
It is just going
It is just
going with its nature
as far as that
will take it

And with its nature
it has to take along
a horde of
gurgles
who are forever asking
where they are
gurgling to

Everything
is going beautifully
nowhere

Star dream


Star Dream from Keith Stretchko on Vimeo.


Last nights dream: I was flying in space on a ship with transparent walls and it felt like I was flying through stars and I Feel Love was playing loud and I felt magnificent.

Desiderata





~Desiderata~

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit.

If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let not this blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.

Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore, be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams; it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful.

Strive to be happy.

~ Max Ehrmann, 1927

Far Beyond Explanations




One can spend a lifetime seeking explanations.
It is even worse if one finds them.
What the heart requires is not explanation,
but breaking open entirely
far beyond explanations.
