“Her skin was the diary of her soul. All the springs she had watched the flowers bloom. The summers she had stood before the moon and kissed its face. The autumns she had grown wiser. The winters that had frozen the initials of her name. Each wrinkle was a record of this and of every hour, minute, and seconds she had lived. All her secrets were written in her skin. The things she had asked God for. The things she had cursed the devil about. In such an age before me, I saw only beauty.”

“Beholden by Stewart Stafford All luminous things harbour flaws, If you permit the mask of judgement, To drag your eyes down to see them, Missing Chimera joys of the voyeur. Flirting looks at the sun are all we have, Save for the shadowy beard of clouds, Sunspots dappling the magisterial orb, Freckles of the wrapping skin merging. Smudged handwriting overlooked, Granting character to spidered scrawl, Blind alleys serve as crooked prizes, A third eye, newborn-viewing the self. © Stewart Stafford, 2023. All rights reserved.”

“If you love, the whole existence becomes beautiful. Love makes everything beautiful. If you love all is beautiful, but if you don't love nothing is beautiful. Learning to love is the only magic in life. Learning to love opens all the mysteries of existence. One who settles for a unloveable life says "no" to life, which creates a lonely, dark and miserable life. One who learns to love says "yes" to life. he learns to love life and to experience life fully. He opens his doors to life, while somebody who says "no" closes his doors to life. Learning to love life is the way to know God.”
