Felt Striking

The goal of Onebirdie is
To promote freedom liberty and
The possibilities of life often
Not appreciated in daily stresses but
Felt striking the golf ball soaring
Through the open sky like
Onebirdie flying over
The ocean

The True Power

What separates us from animals

Some say it is our ability to love
Others say we have compassion
And others say it is only intelligence

But what truly makes us different
Is our possession of free will

Not the free will to pursue pleasure
Not the free will to attain power
Or the free will to amass wealth

But the free will to choose
A path that is self sacrificing
To choose others over oneself
Good over evil

The true power of free will
Lies not in doing what you want
But in not doing what you want

Unless what you want is good

Doing whatever you want
Makes us no different
From animals

Like a Painting

Spring summer autumn winter
Every season has a beauty in itself
Appropriate for that season

Like the colors of leaves
In the autumn forest

And the warmth of rising sun
In the spring

But no matter how beautiful
A rose in the winter
Will not attract bees

Nor will tree without leaves
Provide shade in the summer

Without purpose
Everything is meaningless

Like a painting
In empty museum
