serene, this instant
basking in the
glorious sun
as only I know how
my life is complete

Beyond the window, the city reaches endlessly upward, a testament to human hunger for more.

I perch here, bathed in amber light, my whiskers catching sunbeams, having mastered the art of being complete.

They build toward heaven.

I've found it on this Chicago windowsill.

#Chicago #Cats

Taco sits regally on a wooden windowsill bathed in warm sunlight. Taco's fur glows with golden amber hues where the sun touches it, creating a striking contrast with the darker stripes on their back. With eyes peacefully closed and whiskers illuminated by the light, Taco appears perfectly content and serene. Through the window beside them, a dramatic Chicago skyline stretches upward with modern skyscrapers reaching toward a clear blue sky. The juxtaposition of the still, meditative cat against the busy urban landscape creates a powerful visual metaphor—while the city's architecture strives endlessly upward in pursuit of more, Taco embodies complete contentment, having found perfect peace in this simple sun-warmed perch. The warm interior woodwork frames this scene of tranquil feline wisdom set against the backdrop of human ambition and architectural achievement.

There are, indeed, things that cannot be put into words. They make themselves manifest.
They are what is mystical.

A strong nation, like a strong person, can afford to be gentle, firm, thoughtful, & restrained. It can extend a helping hand to others. It’s a weak nation, like a weak person, that must behave with bluster, boasting, and rashness, and other signs of insecurity.

days unfold
like a breath held
too long
then released
into the void
I gather
what I can
but the wind
always finds a way
