you can't trust the sky
when there aren't any stars, yet
still we move forward
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

we hope we will find,
when the darkness yields to light,
our feet lead us home.
What's the point of success if it makes me miserable?

walking paths well-worn,
we need no map nor compass,
just courage, just breath.
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

Cranes Folded Into Flight

With white stalks elegant
And perched wings ready to fly
The breeze blows afar

Don't aim at success--the more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side-effect of one's dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one's surrender to a person other than oneself.
— Viktor E. Frankl
