✮ Blinker ✮

We spend so much time blinking and looking away,
we blink so much that we don’t realize our fuse is alight.
A turn of the dial,
into another scene,
never rooted in the moment,
as transient as everything mortal.
We blink, to erase the unpleasant,
we blink, to jump forward,
coil our bodies around rest,
wrap paychecks inside our hands,
so, we can blink a little more.
We skip and jump out of the day,
when tomorrow is worse than today,
we blink it away,
as if we have unlimited blinks,
and soon enough we’ll hit a wall
and wish we could have kept our eyes open
more frequently.

Here today; gone tomorrow, never take anything for granted.

When complaining about long walks, someone is dreaming of having such luxury. Walks that people take for granted mean everything to someone else who is bound by a condition that prevents them from doing so. They could be bedridden; they could be hiding in fear in a war zone; they could be impeded by physical conditions that limit them.

You complain about tidying up. It’s because you have a home. You stress out over traffic. It’s because you have a car. You can’t deal with the noise. You have a family. Someone out there wants what you have but can only dream of it.

When frowning in dissatisfaction over a prepared meal, think about that person who took time and poured every ounce of their heart, hoping to bring you happiness. Think.

Be grateful that you are in school; not everyone is afforded such an opportunity. Not as a promise to secure a job, but to learn. Bitterness often comes from discounting what people already have. Contentment, as they say, is the key to happiness. Dream, but be forgiving. If it’s yours, it will come to fruition. If not, steady your heart and live with what you have.

Never neglect people or things that add, give, and bring value to your life. Blessed are those who can’t count how many people they love with their fingers. If you do, you’re already rich. Hurray! You will have someone to turn to.

At the end of the day, when all that you take for granted is gone, what will be left of you?

Live it Up!

Life is too short for argument, block them and sleep peacefully.

Have fun this holiday. Eat something you enjoy. Read something for fun. Go outside and lay on the grass, the sand or the field and look up at the clouds or birds in the sky. Life is short and we can't control the time we live it in.

Needs a better quality tequila but a good margarita is better than no margarita.

I know that judging by my posts one might think that I have an unhealthy relationship with alcohol. Rest assured that while I drink frequently, I don't drink much. Also, nobody wants to hear about the other parts of my day, like customers that can't remove their heads from their rectums, technical issues or general yelling at clouds. i.e. My posts are not the entire spectrum of my life.

Life is very short and anxious for those who forget the past, neglect the present, and fear the future.

Do not take people for granted. Tell them you love them. Tell them you appreciate their presence in your life. #lifeisshort #appreciation #love

A quotation from Marcus Aurelius

Tell yourself, when you feel exasperated and out of all patience, that this mortal life endures but a moment; it will not be long before we shall one and all have been laid to rest.
 
[ὅταν λίαν ἀγανακτῇς ἢ καὶ δυσπαθῇς, ἀκαριαῖος ὁ ἀνθρώπειος βίος καὶ μετ᾿ ὀλίγον πάντες ἐξετάθημεν.]

Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) Roman emperor (161-180), Stoic philosopher
Meditations [To Himself; Τὰ εἰς ἑαυτόν], Book 11, ch. 18 (11.18) (AD 161-180) [tr. Staniforth (1964)]

Life is too short. No one knows how short, but it doesn't matter. We can't control world events, but we can at least be kind to those we see and interact with. Smile and say thank you as we may be the brightest point in someone else's day. #kindness #smile #lifeisshort

Live fully. Live now. Don't wait. Be careful of overpreparing. It's easy to make excuses, wasting time waiting for something to fall into place.

"The fool, with all his other faults, has this also, he is always getting ready to live…. How late it is to begin really to live just when life must end!"

Seneca, On the Shortness of Life (quoting Epicurus)

Timothy Cruso, the namesake of Robinson Crusoe, considers what would constitute sinful extravagance as per Luke 16 and our prayer for Daily Bread. A full table is no prob. But you’d be pushing it to suggest that a life of constant superfluity pleases a God who suggests we ask for Daily Bread.

Are we very large interpreters today?

GH Gerberding, Lutheran synod president, writes on the conversion of a jailer in Acts 16. Hands that directly carried out cruelty, upon receiving mercy, now wash and clean those feet. Exercising mercy is a sign of having obtained mercy. Is this a measure many would accept today?

If we are called by our duty or contract to do difficult things, can we find ways to knock off the unnecessarily harsh or cruel edges from the tasks?

On occasion I enjoy a cocktail. My favourite vodka is Black Tusk Smokey Vodka from Raincity Distillery. So good that I sometimes pour it over ice and sip it with nothing added.🍸 Sadly, this bottle is empty now. 😞 #vodka #cocktails #LifeIsShort #enjoyment

@Tardis @ChocolatePie I agree, there’s been a few in many years with me and it’s certainly doesn’t resolved anything however if people want to talk about things to resolve, the best thing to do, is to do it calmly and both be kind or otherwise you have to move on from it. Easy to say but hard to do. #LifeIsShort #BeKind #AskForHelp

Haven’t quit my day job (yet), but I’ve taken the next big step to being a full-time artist.

Say hi to my new Southern Vermont studio! 216 square feet with track lighting and shelves, Northern light, and the view ain’t bad either!

So have binged the whole of #HappyValley in under a week, finished a slice of Tunworth and *checks* a bottle of Primitivo and am raring to go, despite the most deadening of Altman's work on screen #Images. #LifeIsShort

Create a life where every day feels like the weekend.

Life is too damn short to settle for less.

A simple piece of #positivity: "Life Is Live" #poem #poems #poems4kids #poetry #poetrycommunity #life #LifeIsShort #poets

Don't treat your life like an afterthought by squeezing it into the margins of time around your job.

Instead, design your work around your ideal life.

How do you write a poem about the brevity of life? I tried a simple approach and just used a series of words that define "shortness" in some way, shape or form.
