The minute I heard my first love story
I started looking for you,
not knowing how blind that was.
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere.
They are in each other all along.

I wonder, often. I read, write, listen to music, and collect things: images, quotes, and dreams. This blog is sort of like a virtual cork board, my cubbyhole. One day I may post several images that are meaningful. Another day, a song or video I like, or I might tell you what I'm currently reading. This is a collection of things that make my heart happy.

Gamble everything for love,
if you are a true human being.
If not, leave this gathering.
Half-heartedness does not reach into majesty.
You set out to find God,
then you keep stopping for long periods
at mean-spirited roadhouses.
