In quantum mechanics, a spin swirls towards directed dance.
When humans are led by God ...
... a ballroom gets revealed.

Marathon
Friendship is an endurance course.
Each day is glazed with zeal.
The finish provides a glorious embrace.
29th Valentines Run
Scat
Al Jarreau turned Spain into music.
His roots were sacred.
Yesterday, the hush of breath stood still.
God grants life. The songs remain.
Mission
When we depart to soar ...
Wings get loosed ...
Winners emerge.

Craft
The wonder of God's craftsmanship in us is sacred.
Each one is blessed with a bent.
We are called to hone our talents for His glory.

Demitasse
Small portion.
Each day.
Affection grows as such.
Generation
The movement from one generation to the next calls for symmetry.
The spiritual DNA of our lives is paramount.
We pass on what has been tested well.
Rest
There is a promised rest for all our daily toil.
It is found not in a place.
It is lavished through the living Christ.
Birth
1961.
56 years ago.
God crafted me with His life.
Full
God's measure yields complete joy.
It arises from personal obedience.
Full and beyond compare are His gifts.
Eye Shadow
Malice promotes malignancy.
Purity upholds integrity.
Our vision merely follows what's in our hearts.

Clear
Japanese "maguro" is casuallly served in "akami" which is the leaner part of the tuna.
When "toro" is requested, the succulent fatty side of the belly is served.
The difference is clear: full bodied flavor of the latter just like the mercies of Christ.
Wish
Hope is better than wish.
Wish is contingent on chance.
Fiat drives hope.
Justice
A true understanding of my current standing must be heard:
I was not granted justice.
God lavished me grace, instead.
Myth
Stories are either imagined or recollected.
Humanities abound in the former.
Scriptures claim the latter.
Parking
The proper place to park is where one is most near his task.
I seldom think about this locus.
The hardest to park is my tongue.
Spot On
The goal of life is centered.
Either I determine it ...
or allow God to reveal the plan.
Directed
Life is guided.
Who does the lead matters.
God claims purview over all our path.
All In
Christianity is not your regular religion.
It is all in.
Nothing out.

Me: Papa, don't worry about us. We are all good. God has favored us with lavish blessings. You may now rest.
Papa: (staring at me ... silently intimating a thought ...)
Me: You taught me all that I am now good at ... grammar, foresight, basketball, boxing, persevering ... now, please teach me the most important practice ... how to jump from here to the eternal arms of our Redeemer.
Papa: (one last heave ... a strong but gentle inhale of final oxygen without any further release ...)
Thank you my beloved mentor and friend.
You taught me well.
