Why can’t we be whoever we want to be ... although sometimes feels difficult . Just good to be true to ourselves .

A nice piece of writing πŸ™‚

There is something in the line \"No tests on paper created this art!\" which makes me wish I\'d known it just after leaving school with very poor exam results... Oh well, better late than never!

When life moves fast so does our triggers
L. B. Mek said:

\'overlooked to overbooked\'..
even as a featherweight friend bonded by poetic appreciation alone, that title hinting at the greener pasture\'s you\'re currently journeying is such an uplifting read,
thanks for sharing your exuberance for life, dear poet
but beware of those unforeseen tremors that like to bump-us from our comfortable perches

Temptations
L. B. Mek said:

\'No tests on paper created this art! Our journey is writing in the stars, once we remember who we are!\'..
we mostly engage, to experience through others or to glean, something we feel is missing from within..
then sometimes, we simply share an appreciation for the choice wording of impassioned wordsmith\'s
who in return, simply share those nuggets excavated from the trials: they overcome

There are deja vu feelings too - bit of French there! lol.
I\'m not into \'vibes\' that much, but they have some influence, I think.

P D you can tell her that I was listening, or rather reading. And you are so right, home does not have to be a physical place.

Miscommunication can cause so much frustration in life, we need to really listen to people to understand them and all would be much better.
Good words Dan and a fabulous video showing such understanding.

\'It is up to us, to reflect and learn the unspoken words, that neither child nor dog can explain.

There is no such thing as bad behaviour... just a misunderstanding or miscommunication, which leads to a lack of trust in what we are doing.\'
wise words to contemplate and meditate on those self-giving qualities like restraint and patience required of us,
when we take on those burdensome: but oh so rewarding titles, of nurturer\'s or guardian\'s..
wonderful words dear poet, personally I can\'t recall commenting to this poem before, either way, a write imbued with such timeless sentiment\'s and messages should be reposted time and again

Mothering matters
L. B. Mek said:

how uncompromisingly brave and full of impassioned words of gratitude, penned: not out of guilt or some sense of timely duty,
but born of admiration and a need to express appreciation for all those subtle acts of love and support they instinctively imbue into our daily lives..
such a brilliant dedication my friend!
a write I wish I had the ability to pen myself

Mental health matters to me
L. B. Mek said:

\'Just because we give it a name does it really explain\'..
you said it all in that first line dear empathetic poet..
although I appreciate the rhyme (lobotomy), maybe its unhealthy to forget the past wholly,
because then we also lose: the lessons to be gained, my talented friend

Goldfinch60 said:

In life we have ups downs, good times and bad ones but each of them we have gotten through and each future moment we go into shows that our life is working well for each of us.

Mental health matters to me
dusk arising said:

You, me and the rest of the poets on here are the lucky ones who know there is something within us which needs to cry out. We use these words to mine for the centres of our toubled minds. We are lucky because we know there is that need to express something wrong inside. Lucky? ..yes indeed.... those who are carrying something unusual or wrong inside but cannot realise it is there are not so fortunate. Instead of fine words, such as yours today, they physically carry out actions which can be harmful to themselves, others and all of us.
Mental health is a major issue for each of us in our journey, each an individual unique path, through life.

Dan, if we are to be judged on the content and achievements of our life\'s span, then surely the most significant facets will be not how high we jumped but how high we had to crawl to overcome the obstacles life presented and then, highest of all - how we reached out our hand to ease the burden of others along their path.
