Second letter to my younger self
dusk arising said:
I guess life is a series of phases we enter slowly and before we realise it they are gone and the next is under our feet.
Careful not to build hopes too high for a happy tomorrow. Life\'s a beach and the tide always wins. Go with the flow.

Life is different shades of grey, that gives image it\'s character. It\'s how we deal with these shades of grey,but hat gives our life it\'s character, hoping, like you said, with more lighter shades than darker.

Hi Dan - and in the end we know what we have really earned don\'t we. Don\'t need big signs from other people and there\'s no lying to ourselves.

I\'ll quote to you words of Rudyard Kipling
\"If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you\'ve spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build \'em up with worn-out tools: \"
\"Yours is the Earth and everything that\'s in it,
And - which is more - you\'ll be a Man, my son!\"
An amazing poet who has versed what i\'m thinking with finer words than i can muster for you here today Dan.
From your own comments \"Some treasure you will keep, where no one can reach and not even we can throw it away\".... I\'d like to keep those words in my favourites - sincerely.

On form again, Dan. This made me think of that after everything you have ever wanted and 100 times more then what else is there left for these people left to do. Thye haven\'t had time to educate themselves, they just tend to gravitate to where the money, the bright lights in the city and anything else they can get. I beileve poets do the exactly the same thing but with the thoughts inside his head, heart and soul and is noe possible to turn them into words which a million pound wouldn\'t buy. You have what cannot be taken away and that\'s our thoughts. You\'ve captured those moments brillintly. Good work, my friend.

WE go through our lives and find all kinds of obstacles in the way but every time we overcome one obstacle it becomes part of our experience and each experience teaches us a better way. Your words show that your path ahead of you will have less obstacles the further along it you go. You have come a long way and your life is already easier. Good write Dan.

Past was past, washed by your efforts, away
The journey was drenched in many a tears they say
What\'s encouraging is that you\'re no longer in its sway
And your writings tell us you are in a happier place, today

Many wise phrases here Dan. Like teachings, they are thought provoking and a comfort too.
They show that we all have our individual cross to bear. Collectively, sharing such pearls of wisdom as you have shown us today, we can encourage thought provoking self healing in those we encounter.

How many of us have experienced a drunkeness that in the morning your\'re either in a police cell, a secure unit or hospital and the best bit about all that is you can\'t remember what the heck happened. I spent my 20\'s working abroad, earning good money and whooping it right up till the sky fell on my head. Had to get out of there in the end. Wen\'t back to England and calmed down a bit. Your poem ignites many, many memories and of memories not being able to remember them, Knees up a boozy well done.
