“Pink and Yellow Rose” | Anthony Satori
“Infinitely at ease
despite so many risks,
with no variation
of her usual routine,
the blooming rose is the omen
of her immeasurable endurance.
Do we know how she survives?
No doubt one of her days
is all the earth and all
of our infinity.”
– Rainer Maria Rilke

“Do not go gentle into that good night; rage, rage against the dying of the light.”

“The Perfection of Stillness” | Anthony Satori
It is a uniquely pleasurable sensation to observe “daytime” things under the darkness and quiet of night. There is something deeply peaceful and reassuring about seeing a place that is usually filled with noise, activity, people, and words, and rather seeing it in a state of silence and calm, lacking nothing, existing complete and beautiful in the perfection of its stillness.

“God always strives together with those who strive.”

“This Is Not An Apple” | Anthony Satori
It is always worth the effort to strive to understand the heart and mind of someone that you love. Approach each other with compassion and empathy. Give the process time and space. And always leave room for silence and breath. If you do these things, you will always find yourself returning to a place of resonance, peace, and harmony.
“Planet Ocean” | Anthony Satori
“How inappropriate to call this planet Earth when it is quite clearly [planet] Ocean.”
— Arthur C. Clarke
