shattered glass - pay attention.

what's left of the shattered glass that spikes the delicate feet of a mischievous sneak?  to be cautious is to be calm.  to meet them there is to prioritize.  to wake up is to reach out.  to find purpose is to grow wise.  without looking each individual in their eyes, that's crazy - i watch, i think, while they blink, i listen, i keep.  and we all know you can talk for a straight hour but we're interested and we're dying to know - how long can you actually listen?  the talker is a seldom listener.  and i want to listen.  talking tires time taken to them - let's sit in silence even, let's both listen.  let's trust.  let's build.  let's soak.  let's saturate.  let's think. think. think.  let's learn.  let's maximize.  let's be, different.  like a plain of flowers in the desert with no water to sip.  let's be unrealistic.  for a second.  let's do it because we can - defy gravity because we can.  be kind and be quiet.  what's left of a shattered glass that once was whole but is now looking at itself as many, as separate.  as different than its original state.  don't make sense of it because you can't make sense of it.  just follow the trail and think quietly because i hear your frustration crying out to me.  to the world.  we're used to seeing you sit more silently.  be reserved again.  quiet your train of thought down those tracks that you don't want to travel again.  don't let them read you like an advertisement because they'll sell you.  don't believe me.  don't believe them.  don't believe anything that isn't from Him.  let love settle you.  let Love settle you.
  • breathe!
  • smile more, be easy.
  • listen, listen to all.
  • slowly respond.
  • write more, create more, less work.
  • make work original and lively.
  • be considerate and stop.
  • walk on the lines of love.

robots bleed too.
