Thanks Oak, :D

There’s a word omitted: … requiring nothing from me now…

It’s a good one in any case.

I just love the pochi bukuro! I’m into Japanese culture, being a huge anime fan, and I never knew about this.

What a beautiful thing to do. What a gift to the world.

Thanks :D

It’s not a good photo but here’s my most recent effort.

I give one out every few weeks, then make a new one.

It’s a simple act, but it just means I see people. More than simply money I want them to experience dignity and intimacy.

It’s a work in progress.

Safety thoughts:

I am nothing,
But,
The nothing is very,
Full.

Safety thought:

“Completely enjoy the moment,
You’re currently in,
And we’ll give you anything you want.”

Readier
It’s all about the ‘er’
Get readier;
For nothing in particul-er.

I was walking along the street.

I saw an envelope lying on the ground.

I picked it up. I turned it over. It was open. I looked inside.

Inside I saw, everything of any value to me.

I put it in my pocket and continued walking.

I thought, “I wonder who left that there.”
