Powerful words here Poetic Dan, and I totally understand the chosen picture to accompany the piece.

I hope that all is well and that you have a safe and Merry Christmas.

Changing times & still a need to rhyme!
L. B. Mek said:

such a true point, especially the \'intended\' element of your message,
sadly we are all subjected to varied childhood\'s and thus instilled with such differing fundamentals to that core foundation we establish - as to the true worth of a life, of other\'s and especially our own,
I have found those with little self-respect tend to demonstrate the cruellest of outwardly symptoms, as-if in each act of brutality they indulge - they are daring for anything within existence to stop them, because when they experienced whatever ill-fate imbued such hate - within them: nothing came to their aid...
while those with a much more \'humane\' foundation of self-worth have the \'luxury/ability\' to empathise the consequences of their actions, they know how shocking physical pain is: when it\'s experienced rarely...
a brilliantly simplified write, to what is a deeply complex and disturbingly common aspect of human nature,
thank you for inspiring my little scribbled reply, hope I interpreted the sentiment\'s in you write accurately

FredPeyer said:

Three kids and I only slapped one of them once after he said something bad about his mother. The slap was not premeditated, came out of nowhere and I still regret it today so many years later. My son though later said he deserved it.
Very well written PD and I agree with you despite my one slip!

Few little steps in the poerty of life
L. B. Mek said:

\'then I\'ll slap myself with all I\'ve written here\'
that Sir, is Poetry (in all its forms) distilled to its very nucleus: purpose, for existence...
Amen! oh gifted Poet, what a beautiful dedication you\'ve penned to one of life\'s most wholesome of wonder\'s, may the love you imbued in your song keep her safe and never too far: from her next smile, thank you for sharing!

Few little steps in the poerty of life
dusk arising said:

A lovely time to remember Dan. There will be many more. Such pleasures they bring forth.
You words today are more than about what young Maarii Iris has achieved, for there are great big steps you have too achieved and it seems your are learning to walk tall and look the world right in the eye with love shining out of your eyes.

Respect.

Wonderful video Dan, those first steps are so important and you have captured them bring joy to all of us.
May you new dragonfly bring you the beauty and love as she flies through the wonder of her life that is ahead of her.

Life is ment to inspire us all
dusk arising said:

The past has hurt you and the journey from then to now has been torture for you.
You can only be what you are today because you are made a better man by surviving. It is only the darkness of your yesterdays which enable you to see the light of today so brightly and to dance in it\'s glory. Enjoy what you have today, for you deserve the goodness.
There will be times when the darkness of the past enters your mind again and tries to pull you into a dark place again. Be prepared. Keep something - like a sergeants stripes on your arm for example - so that, when dark days call, you can touch those stripes and say to yourself \"F..k off darkness, i have earned the right to be happy - these stripes are my proof\".
