The purest gift must surely be to be happy and content. Those who make that their hearts goal will be happy and content come rain or shine, come feast or famine.

\'Until I\'m lost in the cycle of another triggering pattern

Never to give in but relentlessly be at the tip of breaking\'..
this is you, at your free flowing Best!
stay Awesome my friend,
walk easy, because if you\'re fighting this much
with this level of dedication
then the outcome, is nothing but a gust of wind of chance
you, Sir: are doing all that\'s asked for you,
and setting a wonderful example for us All to follow...
in the words of the Great \'India Arie\':
\'I believe in open doors
I\'ve taken off the screen
I\'m ready to let the world come inside
And touch my life
I will no longer be defined by
What someone else believes that I am
Now that I have dropped the weight
I am light as a feather
It\'s time to elevate
Soulbird rise
Lift your eyes
Spread your wings
Prepare to fly
This is the moment
Of your life
Go ahead and fly\'

That great succinct shortie really got to me Dan - nothing there to sympathise with. I saw you as wrestling life with the energy to keep on doing so and energy to spare.

I read most of your stuff - even if I don\'t always comment, and I found this one very inspiring.

orchidee said:

Good write Dan. You absorbing? Any \'good vibes\' from it?!
I think we can \'transmit\' emotions, such has fear, not spookily, but more as \'influencing\' others. Animals too pick up our emotions, and we pick up theirs.

Well penned Dan. 👍

For when a man
No longer confuses himself
With the definition of himself
that others have given him,
He is at once
Universal and unique

\'Taking in these moments
I think I find the bliss, not something
that can be taught or bought
it just is!\'..
Amen!
indeed, its that mental wear and tear
we must be weary of
because that painstakingly achieved
moment of serenity
will pass us by, in a forgotten blink...
insightful, as always dear poet
thanks for sharing your wisdom

Dan,

“Only to grow from the darkness but never stay in”…
“I wave no flag and lay no claims this is just a battle cry”…
“To live better than yesterday growing into legendary steps now in the sky”…

What beautiful words to read. You always speak the truth with NO false pretenses. It is such a pleasure to read your work. You are an inspiration.
