Flipping Gods
orchidee said:
Well, in one or two places in the Bible, it says \'You are gods\' (you humans).
It can be explained by saying that magistrates, judges, those in authority, etc were thought of as \'gods\'.
Erm, it made it a bit difficult to explain to one who did not believe in the same way as I do though!

The light of god is within you. Those who search will find it.
Maybe that which caused us to search was us being given the opportunity to seek out the real truth. Until it was violently stamped out by the orthodox christian churches (to ensure they had power over the masses) there were many christian faiths which believed god was within oneself.
Today we are less fearful of the established churches power base and more able to return to a natural path of spirituality.

Hello Poetic Dan,
What a great poem.
It\'s TRUE we should never give up in life.
Life is to be lived to the full and to enjoy the beauty all around us that it brings us such as the animal kingdom.
Keep writing FineB

Excellent PD,
I take it as there are such differences between ourselves as human beings and animals... And then such differences between the animals themselves. But yet, it is fine to be as we are... Imperfections and all... Embracing all of our differences and just making the most of life!
Wonderful poem as always. I look forward to reading what you post.

Each time I get to read your work it appears to deepen into a philosophical exploration of wonder, growing in personality and character, a thriving environment which is almost like the Alice In Wonderland\" film. You now cherish from the path you put yourself on and I now look back at your work from a year ago and there is no comparison to it as you write today. A gift from above, you\'ll never let us down, a battle you have found, but the battlefield you stand in now you hold the belt around your waist equipped with the tools to win the day. Your soul has grown into a beautiful being with the intentions of reaching out to people and to show your hand is held out because you\'ve turned into a wonderful man and with a gift to express your inner thoughts of how your mind can control the direction in a positive life which indeed you have achieved. Topman in my opinion.

\'\' To live is to perform the art from our soul, with a spirit that won\'t quit no matter what UNFOLDS \'\'
This... I love this. I may make it my new motto! Excellent. I keep repeating it outloud to myself. Letting it sink in!

Dan,
Yes, so true...
‘The most important person to keep your promises to, is yourself’
These words are so powerful and inspirational as are your words...
‘Release and rhyme
One moment at a time’

Reading this, I feel such a sense of belonging and contentment. Family in all of its forms at the very centre. Like a previous comment, the line \'\' in the eyes of my family I\'m all I need to be. \'\' is truly humbling and breathtaking in its honest simplicity.
A great read!

The main obstacles in life are recognising the problems and having the courage to ask the questions - you are over the main hurdles and the answers will come.

This reads like you are in a state of flux Dan. The answers are there but you wont find them whilst you are asking the questions. Slowly the answers will come to you and you will truly know yourself.
Like i wrote the other day the words of lennon \"life is what happens to you whilst you\'re busy doing something else\"

A lyric from that old Beatles song comes to mind Dan. \"Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time - It\'s easy, All you need is love\".
Another John Lennon wise phrase \"life is what happens to you whilst you are doing something else\".
It\'s plain to see that you are truly living m8.
