"All I can be-is me, whoever that is." Bob Dylan

What defines us as a person...the things we do, the things we think, what we accomplish or what our dreams are/were?

Each person we meet, even briefly, forms our character, each event adds to the making of ourselves, each thing we think, molds the person we've become.

As the fifty-sixth year of my life approaches, I wonder, who I am.  I wonder, which direction from here.

Is this the winter of discontent, of which Steinbeck and Shakespeare both wrote so eloquently?

I wonder...in the dark of the early morning.

Hoarfrost

Mother Nature spins her magic
with slivers of frozen moisture.
She molds and shapes masterpieces
for us to enjoy.
The magnificent sculptures disappear
with the sun's rise...
and make us doubt they were ever there.
