Since 1998 I've been sending out these reflections first thing each
week--one or more quotes plus my thoughts about the intersections and
contradictions. They're archived here back to 2002, and a new one is
posted every Monday morning. Dialogue is still welcome . . .

Quote #1203 - #FallLikeRain
15 Sep, 2025
FALL LIKE RAIN
"We're not falling apart in an instant like the towers did, but it's like the most important parts of us are coming apart, the foundation just crumbling away beneath us."
Wendy Mills
ALL WE HAVE LEFT
"Rain is ... a cloud falling apart, and pouring its shattered pieces down on top of you. It makes me feel good to know I'm not the only thing that falls apart. It makes me feel better to know other things in nature can shatter..."
Lone Alaskan Gypsy
Falling rain
leaves
tears
times
My heart, my brain,
perpetually broken apart
raining, splintering
into a thousand pieces,
and yet, still, work
and yet, still, love
and yet, still, go on.
At least for now.
In moments it feels like it's all
falling apart
other moments
like we just may be able to ride out the tornado,
the hurricane, the monsoon
even if it means
we are never the same,
traumatized by all that has been heaped upon us,
all we have been through
and witnessed.
Can you feel the foundation crumbling?
Can you hear the screams of those with nowhere left to go?
Do you know how long any of us can last?
And what will be left in the wake of this storm?
