to one degree…

These things can enlarge the soul: laughter, danger, imagination, meditation, wild nature, passion, compassion, psychedelics, beauty, iconoclasm, and driving around in the rain with the top down. These things diminish it: fear, bitterness, blandness, trendiness, egotism, violence, corruption, ignorance, grasping, and eating ketchup on cottage cheese.

it’s about size…

Each thought has a size, and most are about three feet tall, with the level of complexity of a lawnmower engine, or a cigarette lighter, or those tubes of toothpaste that, by mingling several hidden pastes and gels, create a pleasantly striped product.

reflection…

The moon hasn’t come back from the cleaners yet and I have nothing to slip into tonight that makes my reflection feel beautiful.

things are just as they are…

If you understand, things are just as they are.
If you do not understand, things are just as they are.

time and weather…

The wind will be southwesterly, moderate to active gusts over the coastal, central and southern regions, and the sea waves will be medium to high in height.
