I love this! It\'s perfect to \"swallow the sun\" each day and make sure you write. I\'m glad you do! The \"handheld God\" metaphor is so fitting. Great job, Rocky!!!

Good writing abs interesting too ! I have expressed myself and my sadness .. in my poetry sometimes and I think it can feel healing sometimes . If only we could carry that sun whenever we are sad .. maybe light is always there but we just have to transform the darkness into the light .. somehow or even if just a little bit . Darkness can definitely affect our sense of light

My Dear Rocky,
Another great writing from your well inked pen. All I can say (from experience) is pursue whatever dream you have that will make/keep you happy. Don’t be discouraged. Remember that we’re one out of 7.9 million people who want to be on that stage to be ‘noticed and shine’. There’s so much you can do in the arts. Focus and you’ll find your niche. NEVER GIVE UP!😉

MY SILENT PROTEST (A Rant Against My Homophobic Father)
Christina8 said:
Rocky this brought me to tears. I just can\'t imagine! You being gay has nothing to do with you and everything to do with them. By that I mean it\'s their issue. The bible tells us to love and that\'s just what I do...hell, even my best friend is gay. no one is going to hell over this ok? But your father somehow views you being gay as a failure on his part, well thats his f*cking problem, not yours. So glad you are getting out of there at 18! I tell my kids I love them no matter what they do and what they don\'t do.....they think we\'re amazing parents but the truth is we mess up like everybody. You are loved, Rocky Lagou!! Don\'t you forget it!!

A clever write! Some people do dream impossible (or highly improbable) dreams, while others seem to have no real ambition at all. Middle ground is surely best, I would say. I fell short of many of my dreams, but still ended up on middle ground, I would say. Whatever you do, I wish you every success! I certainly enjoyed the poem!

That was a windy ride…
But the bus driver itself was unsure what he was driving cause he couldn’t see the journey ahead…cause dearest Rocky was climbing the Everest
And sure enough it’s not normal to do that
Though I am sure we two are unsure what would happen next
But fate, higher power or Almighty in heaven
Whichever you may believe have stars in our lives shining with the most beautiful sparking lights

Dreams have sometimes to take second place depending on changes in circumstance etc. but that Stop sign is merely telling there is plenty ahead and to rest in the moment until dreams become clearer - at least that\'s how it appears to me dear Rocky.\" Head high and stride forward to beckon tomorrow \" is a mantra that helps me along.

I remember similar feelings as a young man. As i grew older the choices i made brought their own consequences and opportunities and so rewards. They didn\'t arrive in a rush, life is a long process and many changes will affect you, some profoundly, though some profound world events may just pass you by.
There\'s so much luck involved. Like the lucky kid who hated his piano lessons but found he liked to dance to music and a guitarist he met knew a drummer and they made some good feeling stuff and luckily someone who knew someone heard them and before he knew it he was Liberace LOL just kiddin. But luck plays a big part. A boss ( a salesman ) once told me \"the harder you try, the luckier you get\" and that appealed to me, it worked for him and it worked for me. I could write loads on this but.....

It\'s a shame that some people don\'t seem to care much about the environment they live in. Just look at their yards, houses, kitchens. How can they care about the earth if they don\'t care about them selves?

Thank you Rocky for the reminder of what is being done to our home. In fact, every day should be Earth Day, because we live on this Earth. Why is it that we still can\'t see the forest for the trees. Wait a minute, maybe we don\'t even see the trees because we are cutting them down at an phenomenal rate. Sorry for the sarcasm, but being the tree hugger that I am I almost bleed sap for everyone that is lost. the sad thing is that when it\'s too late we all suffer. Thank you for stoking the ecological conscience.

True Earth has been really taken for granted. Its time it rebels back. We have really misused its patience for a very long time. Lets not test its patience even more....

If there\'s as much financial profit to be made in mending the earth as there was in polluting it then i will get done with some ghusto. Money seems to be the driving issue.
