first-hand
What have you experienced today?
microphone
a spotlight opens
the abyss
…
our personal
experiences
mean more
the stronger
the older
the wiser
we get
blue in the face
How are you feeling today?
spilling over
the iron pot
spicy ramen
…
body language
and especially
our faces
are able to display
and communicate
a number of emotions
and feelings
secret sauce
Why are you, you?
sticky fingers turn
grandmothers cookbook
teriyaki stains
…
what makes us
what defines us
what drives us
what completes us
is an amalgamation
of interests, hobbies
desires and so much more
weather forcast
How do you weather your emotions?
dancing rain
falls on umbrellas
to the ground
…
with or without
us the weather
will happen
but our emotions
and our actions
are somethings
we can control
keeping up
What is essential to you?
up and up
the hot air balloon
passes the mountain
…
with others
is one way
for us to focus
non-essential
emotions from our ego
and experiences
that look good on paper
connect the dots
How do you tell stories?
camp fire
marshmallows brown
as crickets sing
…
straight
winding or curved
back and forth
the map we make
is up to us
when retelling
our own adventures
coloring book
What are your boundaries?
at the cliffs edge
a mountain goat
looking for berries
…
if we cared
about coloring
all the way up
to the end of the lines
then we should also
care enough about
challenging boundaries
pros and cons
How do you review things?
the sunsets
another day passes
another night enters
…
no matter how
we look at things
if a line separates
two objects
are we better off
keeping things divided
or looking it as a whole?
write a book
What story are you retelling?
again
the rain comes
and goes
…
if we think we heard
a new story
think again
most of these
new stories
are retellings
with a twist
