Compose this life
Be the musician and conductor
The deaf dance at it
Blind eyes weep for color
Compose this life
Be the rhythm and rhyme
A table for traitors
Arms for orphans
Compose this life
Be the heartbeat and love
Death is irony
Life is composed

These are my thoughts...
And the king said...
I set my mind to seek and explore by wisdom concerning all that has been done under heaven. It is a grievous task which God has given to the sons of men to be afflicted with. I have seen all the works which have been done under the sun, and behold, all is vanity and striving after wind. What is crooked cannot be straightened and what is lacking cannot be counted. I said to myself, "Behold, I have magnified and increased wisdom more than all who were over Jerusalem before me; and my mind has observed a wealth of wisdom and knowledge." And I set my mind to know wisdom and to know madness and folly; I realized that this also is striving after wind. Because in much wisdom there is much grief, and increasing knowledge results in increasing pain.
Silence
Silence is the language of God -- all else is poor translation... -Thomas Merton
About Me
- Zeb Powell
- Birmingham, Alabama, United States
- "If it is love that you truly desire then set out at once on the task of seeing...As you do this the hard, protectionve shell around your heart will soften and melt and your heart will come alive in sensitivity and responsiveness. The darkness in your eyes will be dispelled and your vision will become clear and penetrating, and you will know at last what love is." -de Mello
Belief
"I will believe in the sun, even if I can't see it. I will believe in love, even if I can't feel it. And I will believe in God, even if I can't hear him." -100 year old
