We are all in a state of decay…the depth of this reality is more for some and less for others…and for the rest of us, despite this reality, we are shaped by the light we let through us. It’s not so much that there is a darkness in this moment…that understanding of the limitations of the existence our fragile humanity endures and celebrates…it’s that we understand that we are human and indeed fragile, and only meant to be here for a specific time. Perhaps we see the essential good in this…and I suspect that we struggle often and question as needed so that we may find good and deliberate purpose…trying to shine and occasionally shatter, because life we know is only shaped by these types of truths: there are only the certainties of our own actions and that they are always unknown. So I wonder if life chooses us or the other way around…and at this journeys ending trust that it will not have mattered…since every day was lived knowing full well its importance and uncertainty.

About Lawrence Lewis
I do a number of things professionally...but most of all and the true purpose of what I do through "my work" is to provide for my family, be a good husband and great father, and try to make a difference as a world citizen...I guess it's not much more complicated than that 🙂
