every action
has an equal and opposite
reaction
but words
are not equal
to the effect of words~
what is spoken
what is written
cannot suppose
the circle it will draw.
a pebble
tossed into a pile
cannot compare
to a pebble
tossed into a pond
and where a word is tossed
is lost
until the ripple
or the avalanche
appears.
every motion
has a sequel as
emotion
and every gesture
has a reason beyond
effect…
every morning
you may roll a boulder
up a hill
and every evening
roll it down again
but what is lost
from the living of the day
is not the distance
between two points
of view
nor the speed
at which life travels
up or down
but that the product
of your actions
and your words
is greater than the sum
of what you do.
