If you can see it, and believe it you can achieve it.

On todays Oprah episode, the guest was Amy Purdy - the athlete who lost her legs when she was 19 but never stopped being active.

One of the books recommended in this episode that inspired both Amy and Oprah is:
Deepak Chopra
The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle

Shai melting my heart a lil bit

existential crisis is an understatement for my journey, but its necessary.

Free me

True freedom is understanding that we have a choice in who and what we allow to have power over us.

Piano
By Alicia Proto

Piano keys
play the notes
of my life in melodies

chaos
symphonies
as beautiful as the still of a sea

pulling at my heart strings
as wind pulls the leaves on a tree

if passion
does not turn to wealth
does that mean a life unfulfilled?

the keys play the melodies
of my aching heart
hand to key
hand on me

live
with pride
as if thats all one needs

compassion
for the notes of yesteryear
still present on a piano key

compassion
don't forget it
you might have nothing else
but compassion is what keeps life going
the sun on a plant
water in its roots
soil to hold it together
