THE CALLING

IMAGINE destinations to discover, ponder upon
paths to explore—experiences that stay with us
like moveable feasts, setting souls ablaze
with joy so great that one is blessed and can bless.

Seek the distant, cherish the near; stand in the

singeing sunlight rather than shade.

THE JOURNEY

CHOOSE paths less traveled
yet honor well-trodden trails
beaten smooth for sound reasons

Seek what evokes awe:
metropolises, mountains, and ruins
Roam where there be dragons.

THE STARDUST

Sample, SAVOR, relish the ephemeral till  
entropy and setting sun cast longer shadows.  

Slaying dragons, uprooting even giants—
yet we persist, however fleetingly.
Our dignified resistance continues
Until our stardust returns to universe.
