Questions

"The unexamined life is not worth living. -- Socrates"
Many people view questions as irksome—they associate questions with being ignorant, being lost, or, even worse, being tested. But in fact, the very act of creating questions, for yourself, is a profound step toward understanding—even if the questions are neither asked nor answered.

A thought on work


I am re-reading "The Prophet" by Khalil Gibran and came across these lines which say something about work.
"Work is visibile love. But if you do your job without love, more reluctantly, then it is better to stop work and sit down at the entrance of the temple taking the handouts of those who love their work. Because if you bake bread with indifference, then it will be a bitter bread which will not satisfy hunger completely.And when you are treading grapes thunderously, then there will be rancour in the wine."

Have you ever sailed across an ocean?

Have you ever sailed across an ocean?
On a sailboat surrounded by sea with no land in sight?
Without even the possibility of sighting land for days to come
The stand of your helm of your destiny
I want that
I want to be in Piazza del campo in Siena
I want another meal in Prague
I want another bottle of wine
and then another
I want the warmth of a woman in a cool set of sheets
One more night of love
I want to stand on summits and smoke cubans and feel the sun on my face for as long as I can
Walking the wall again , climb the tower, ride the river, stare at the stars
I want to sit in the garden and read one more good book
Most of all I want to sleep
I want to sleep like I slept when I was a boy
Give me that
Just one time
