Haiku September 21, 2012 Goals

Determination

Rain, stream, creek, river, ocean

Movement towards the whole.

Art Prescription:  What gives people will? Why are some people driven? Or better stated what drives people’s behavior? It’s difficult not to judge others based on our opinion which rises out of our own life learned perspective. For me personally, I do hope I can always consider another person’s point of view, be a good listener, and simply try to show kindness. One drop of water flows endlessly to where is belongs…moves along with the flow of life.

Haiku September 18, 2012 Inertia

Heavy grey clouds roll

Rain pours down in side-ways sheets

An afternoon walk!

Art Prescription:  On grey stormy days like today, one has to fight the power of inertia. AKA the couch and a warm cat pulling you down….noooooooooo. I will resist! I have work to do! Okay, just for a moment. Dang an hour later I rub my eyes and look outside. Still pouring. Off to walk I go! Inertia, especially as fall begins her hypnotic effect, is a powerful force. I ended up with wet feet, wet pants, and a lot of fun!! It’s all up to the mind.

Inertia is the resistance of any physical object to a change in its state of motion or rest, or the tendency of an object to resist any change in its motion.
