Keep dreaming!
Read more: Keep dreaming!Some truths are in full cycle now. Many will not understand, how light unravels itself. But the truth is ours. It has always been now that we see the fruits of our dreaming.

Keep thick love and the power of your grants!
Read more: Keep thick love and the power of your grants!That we have been engaging in a persistent struggle should be widely known.

What we want, that is bigger than ourselves and what they want to…

Keep nurturing what matters!
Read more: Keep nurturing what matters!I imagine somethings can be bold and urgent. Yesterday I started to write about my grandmother’s death. It’s been 27 years and still if feels like it was yesterday. They say never let your knowledge of anything keep you from your nurturing of core things.

Keep moving like the ocean…
Read more: Keep moving like the ocean…And still we retrace our footsteps and follow the black rocks, the spiraling purple flowers, the rough and smooth pavement, the cracked cry of the ocean, all the way back to where dreams first began. Pride and joy swell our hearts. Initial love, we wish to keep. A peace, a deepening love through the rocks…

Keep telling the story!
Read more: Keep telling the story!Some of us will tell a story of the moments we returned so to tell the glory of how some of us did not die.

Keep a fruitful day!
Read more: Keep a fruitful day!They possess a look, a feel, a thing, that can only be described as joy. Those many may not know. Those hidden. Those few remember. Those we choose to keep.

Keep being a bright star!
Read more: Keep being a bright star!We spent today discussing the approach section of a grant. It’s my least favorite section to write. One where I actually struggled to teach it.

Keep chance meetings with Angelique Kidjo.
Read more: Keep chance meetings with Angelique Kidjo.I love the lit corners of her melodies. They remind of why you can’t be hard to a hard world forever. You might as well dance like the sun through the morning mist. And meet life’s screams with your own thundering roars. If you can’t stop the rain, you might as well let it pour…
