a wonderful dedication and fitting in its non-aggressive or excessive tone...
\'trying\' is a wonderful gateway to progression, let us all create the ripples within fate to curate a better tomorrow for our future generations,
a measured write, worded so subtly beautiful

Not enough people are trying hard enough.
In America, every black person is a descendant of a slave, are they not? By now every single one should have been offered compensation and social equity
Ditto Australia: the original inhabitants, following 1788, found themselves the subject of invasion and mass slaughter. Today many of the few survivors live in abject poverty and are subject to discrimination both overt and subtle.
Not a lot of humanity in either case, really.

Afraid Of The Dark

A bat can find his prey so easily in the dark because of his sophisticated echo-detecting system, but I did not cross my mind before that the daylight can hinder or confuse its radar until I have read your beautiful poem. Maybe that is why bats are nocturnal hunters.

ok please don\'t take offence or judge me too harshly, but do feel free to cringe: your words took me back to Summer romances and a song by Dan & Shay titled \'nothin like you\',
what a wonderful gift of reminisced romance, you\'ve gifted with these unassuming words

Empathy Taken
Doggerel Dave said:
On the other hand........ Let\'s try to take a more global view of \'advice\' please:
After all, It\'s everywhere; some seek it out - self help books, as an example are ubiquitous as bookshops and I need advice from a friend from time to time.
TRUST the key here. Advice accepted if trust exists. Trust is, or should be the lubricant in all human interaction.

good write and very true,
so easy to get lost in \'well meaning\' and step over that line to \'overbearing\', personally I simply try to apologise in advance for any conceived misunderstanding to my intent - I can anticipate: but sadly, that\'s often - not enough to avoid the consequences yielded by our fallible nature...

Plenty of kneejerk, thoughtless, valueless advice around isn\'t there.
Like the advice about the vaccination, there is some really silly advice knocking around on that one.
Oh I\'m so sorry to hear of your fear of the virus but don\'t take the vacconation LOL. You must be joking.... gimmie that jab!
