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.

Good words once more Dan, the trouble with lying is that you need to remember what lie you told to who. Speaking the truth is so much easier.

We must all go our own way in this life, if we all went the same way it would get awfully crowded.

Doggerel Dave said:

You\'ve really put it altogether there, mate.
It almost feels like a summary of all you ever wanted to say in one place. I admired it...you will be coming back to write more, won\'t you? Not your final effort here, is it?

I find it profound that you\'re spreading the teachings of patience in your picture and its relation to the meaningful concept of self-discovery in your words, symbiotic in its distillation of realised, self worth..

I once was a hero to my kids when they were little. It has all been downhill since then. But now they accept me the way I am, which is fine with me.

I like this poem, Dan. You are so right that we all give out these vibes, sometimes unaware, sometimes on purpose. Good words of advise!
