If we are the sum of our
Experiences
Then there has to hope for a
New Life...
Everyday, we wake up to a
New Beginning...
The sun doesn't worry about
Yesterday
It rises with a start
No past
No future
Just here and now.
Shining as if nothing before
Ever existed
Unapologetic
Waving to us all
A salve
In a broken world
A world
Overp0pulated and
Undernourished
Yet, there it is
It just is.
A beacon to show us a
New Day
To shed light and warmth
For our continued existence
Here in this place we call home.
Providing without asking
any questions about whether we are
Deserving or not.
Like a book we long to read
To understand
Why and how
It keeps going...
How it stays alive
After so much death...
Leaving us to have conversations
About its' mysteries
Long after it has set in the
Sky...
Although, it never really sets
Only moves to another
Place where it is needed...
Rising
And falling
Continually
Sending a silent message
That even our own rebirth
Is imminent and inevitable
Yet, our essence remains
Unchanged
Giving us a quiet stability
A continued faith
That there will, indeed, be
New Life in the morning.

The Path to Salvation
The late autumn evening air filled the monk's lungs, but it wasn't the season that chilled his bones. The heavy-handed presence of evil he had sensed upon entering the woods surrounding this mountain village had not bothered to conceal itself from him.
