is as easy as breathing,
and almost as rewarding!

A haiku a day
is as easy as breathing,
and almost as rewarding!

In your own hands lay
the answer to all questions,
just pick up the pen

Girl who got away,
just a projection of self
yearning completion

The eyes just see,
the brain just thinks,
of the mind there is no trace;
a thought that comes and goes,
in this space
that holds all things,
in the palm of an empty hand.

A man is measured
not by his great achievements,
but his everyday actions

Label the world and you lose it,
Name beauty and you create ugliness,
Claim goodness and there also is evil,
But accept death and you embrace lifeā¦
This is the way of the warrior.
