Kaleidoscope

I don’t know at what point I get sucked into the whirlpool of moving colours.  It is labelled as a whim, schizophrenia, explosion of creativity - but I know that I’m at my best when I operate at multiple levels. I’m grateful to each colour for bringing out a facet of me. Colours then come … Continue reading Kaleidoscope

The Glass Mountain

She was castigated for her courage, let down by those who resented her leadership, put down by puny egos. Yet, she rose to be at the pinnacle of a small mountain she constructed by choice.

“What is the time horizon you have in mind, for your investment?” “As short as memory, and as long as life…” “I am a financial planner, not a poet.” “You don’t have to be, but I need the flexibility.” “I will take it as the time you take to reach the age of 99.” “Horizons … Continue reading As far as vision goes

Uncertainty

It moves from East to West or so I think, but are there trajectories I don’t see? It blazes through my psyche, burns consciousness as I struggle to make sense of it.
