I don\'t know that I entirely understand the title\'s relation to the poem, but the message is truly a beautiful and motivating one.

It\'s difficult because what\'s right and what\'s wrong? What justifies the means to justify the ends? I often hear the saying along the lines of \"whoever abandoned you in the ocean has no right to know what the sharks did to you or what you had to do to get to the shore\" which makes sense, until you think what was done is worse than what happened. These kinds of moral questions make me think I could be a good philosopher.

Indeed. How much difference rattles our bones...and yet, how different are we? In one sense, vastly different. There are entire universes with in people, perhaps multiverses. Yet, in another way, not very different at all. Sometimes we find ourselves having to comply, but I determined a long time ago that I will never conform. I am who I am. Wonderful write, Soren. This one hit home! 🌹👏

I\'ve tried to con-form, but the limitation is unbearable. Great write, Soren.

I was intrigued by the title; once again, your poem undertakes a compelling examination of conformity, individuality, and societal norms, prompting a profound analysis of the concept of \'sanity\' as defined by collective societal agreement. It sheds light on how individuals who bravely diverge from the norm are frequently marginalized or labeled as \'insane,\' yet, in doing so, exposes the transformative tension between individuality and societal expectations. This thought-provoking subject matter underscores how embracing our differences can yield both liberating freedom and a sense of alienation, urging us to reassess our understanding of what it means to be \'sane.\'

In all “reality” there is but one race, the Human Race. If we would only learn to love the human, the rest would fall in to place. Nicely done, Soren. Thanks for sharing.

One prefers to burn \"under a cold blanketing heaven.\" Marvelous, my friend. I so get this and relate to in so many ways. This is that type of poem that enters the soul and speaks to the person where they are. Wonderful job on this! 🌹👏

Hello,

For me this seemed a multi layered poem where there is more than what meets the eyes. It seemed an unfolding of a period perhaps a day though at the same time it could be a week month or season. As each cycle opens it ends only into new beginnings.Each grain of sand in the hourglass is renewed again. I enjoyed the read! Greetings and blessings,
R

It reminds me of the momentum of change and transformation. Something starts small, like someone coughing in a crowd. Then it turns into a brawl. You are an amazing writer.

Poetic Licence said:

Each season has different memories and meanings to different people, a change in seasons can also see a change in some people, as I always feel emotions and feeling better are linked to seasons of nature, lovely write, enjoyed the read

MDStone said:

Soren,
How soon we forget, indeed. Always thinking that another season is better than the one we are in now. Forgetting the hardships of that season at the altar of the season we face now. Failing to see the good days of this season for the clouded memories of “the good old days.” It’s time to stop the madness and enjoy the moments of right here and right now. Thanks for stirring my heart and thought towards the present.

Your poem explores the complexities of human memory and emotion, emphasizing how seasonal experiences shape our perceptions and feelings. It invites readers to reflect on their own experiences with the seasons and the memories they evoke.
Overall, your poem seems to capture the interplay between warmth and cold, both physically and emotionally, inviting contemplation on how these elements shape our lives and memories
