FALSE DIETIES
FredPeyer said:
I absolutely love this poem, Louis! While I do believe that everybody has the right to believe whatever it is they want to believe, I also believe that everybody has the right to non-believe! And I do not like it if somebody thinks they can push their believe down my throat.
Finally, I do not think you are a little crazy, I think you just might be a little enlightened!

Very true LOUIS ~ BUT from whence comes the GOLDEN RULE ~ I find mine in the BIBLE ~ especially inn the PSALMS. BUT I cannot just have the GOLDEN RULE(S) without being either a JEW or a CHRISTIAN ~ Because I was born (1983) into a Christian Home ~ I am a Christian ~ OK ~ Yours BRIAN

Erm, yes, though is the Rule a \'thing\'? I feel people need some Being to worship.

Good write and very true, with experience we can discard the unnecessary.

I am amazed that as we age, our vision may fade, but our ability to see with clarity increases dramatically.

THE TRADE OFF
FredPeyer said:
I love your poem, Louis!
Are we beginning to understand because we move closer to our souls as we age?
How incredible would it be if we could recall all the knowledge we gained over many lifetimes!
Your short poem is so well written, and now seems to careen around in my head.

Ah - I agree with the alternative to the phrase - \"getting old\" - -understanding is what we would like to grow into - - a satisfying read Louis.

THE TRADE OFF
Accidental Poet said:
Louis, it\'s a balancing act of what we know and what we thought we knew. As we find things we\'re not, we also find things we are. I remember when I thought I couldn\'t write poetry. And then I heard a voice from within. ; )

Love this description from nights of cavorting to days when parts have to be played - an impressive piece of observed happenings in this we call life my friend.

Hmm, yes, does seem to be so, maybe if our life is \'ordinary\'.
Does time go quicker if we\'re enjoying ourselves, as they say? And vice versa?

REFLECTIONS ON OBSERVATIONS
FredPeyer said:
Great food for thought in this so well written poem, Louis. I have come to depend on your \'eye-openers\'! The first stanza stopped me. Don\'t think I have an answer, maybe because of what you say in your last stanza.

The value of random acts of kindness so well outlined in this tribute to taking time for reflection Louis - a very good read.

Probably the small things, I reckon! Reminds of the widow\'s mite. Seems completely useless, humanly speaking, to put two mites in a \'collection\' box, yet it was the quality, not the quantity that mattered. A fine write Louis.

JUSTIFIABLE DENIAL
Accidental Poet said:
My reply would more than likely go like this: \"Yes, all you say is true, there are those among us who know not what they do. And I can see your wisdom clearly, might I ask of your employment availability?\"
Great concept and write Louis.

Louis,
A powerful write!
Unfortunately, that’s the world we live in right now! Unless things change, we are self destructing!

Louis, this is just great! It wasn\'t me, but him too! The old children excuse.
But really, what could we say in such a situation? That we are stupid?
I do like your way of writing and thinking.
