Does our life benefit

Does our life benefit the earth?
Does it help the grass to grow and the sun to shine?
Have you passed through this darkness?

New York... is my home

two sweet, sweet words to my ears.
I never thought I'd be so in love with the state I discounted as a concrete jungle.
And that's exactly what I am...
if New York was embodied in a person, I would hold it in my arms and absorb it.
And New York is embodied.
New York is in honesty.
New York is in straightforwardness.
New York is in theater.
New York is in culture.
New York is in struggle.
New York is in seasons.
New York is in crime.
New York is in pain.
New York is in overcoming.
New York is in diversity.
New York is in community.
New York is in my soul.
New York is my home.

Interesting Time in Life

A place of reflection...
I have never been where I am now,
as open,
experiencing,
believing,
disbelieving.
One thing I know,
is that I am alive,
and here,
is somewhere I always want to be.

Earl's Garden

Is it crazy to say that this garden helps make me who I am?
I love Earl's Garden.

I miss New York

Can I just say I relate to someone who has ever missed a place.. I yearn for you, New York.
