These thinkers know: time waits for no one.

Today's Tendril...

The sea turtle doesn't care about the height of a mountain.

But ask it about the depths of the ocean and you'll receive more words than you can bear.

Today's Tendril...

Too often, tranquility is interrupted by obnoxious ringtones and annoying message alerts — and their equally loud (and full-of-themselves) owners.

Either way, at least it's about chocolate and not lemons.

Children of Eden

Children of Eden,

You bit the apple,

Then the apple bit you.

Children of Eden,

Leaves won't conceal

What you now know.

Children of Eden,

Paradise lost?

No, tossed away.

Children of Eden,

All too true,

You reap what you sow.

Today's Tendril...

Shock into anguish,
Anguish into anger,
Anger into action.

When push comes to shove,
Arises an eagle from a dove.

A warning spoken simply—
Don't tread on me.

A Saying of Kairis

KAIRIS is a ™ trademark of Christopher V. DeRobertis

Today's Reflective Tendril...

Geek. Misfit. Goody-goody.

All badges of honor.

Earned with integrity.

Worn with pride.

Polished by life.

// Tuesday, May 03, 2016

Today's Tendril...

Tension can be a pivot point,

A hook,

Or a noose.

Choice separates them.

Context drives them.
