Not many people like u2s but it reminded me if the song get out if your own way.

I hate people telling me the only one stopping me is me because I know it\'s true.

There\'s a clip my friend sent me which terrifies me

Dan,

Hold on to this...

You matter
You are powerful
You are strong
You are loved
You can do whatever you set your mind to!

GO and ENJOY!

A magical and thought provoking read Dan - - - \"It\'s O.K. to feel good\" is my favourite phrase.

My own view is to steer clear of that Kafziel chappie! I only mostly go along with Biblically know angels - Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael (he is in some hymns). But not meaning in any spooky \'spirit-guide\' ways.

A piece like this is the song of your soul, it\'s extremely sincere and reflects the wisdom you\'ve fostered throughout your life. A flashlight in the darkness, another brilliant work my friend!

Now what is \'twaddle\'?! heehee. is it similar to \'waffle\'? Neither of which applies here.
I read in a similar vein: \'What is not transformed/changed, is transmitted (negatively to others).\'
But what IS transformed can also be transmitted (positively to others).

A fine piece of testament to braving life through even though for periods of time we can be tossed by not asking aright - - the fact is Dan that we have all had to learn to be careful of what we wish for or say - - an honest and heartening write.

Dan, this reflects the kind hearted person you are. I loved it! You the man Dan!

Dan,

Each of your tomorrows will be much brighter than all of your dark yesterdays!

Great Nahko clip!

dusk arising said:

Accepting that we make mistakes is a milestone along our path of self knowledge. Self knowledge i think gives us the enlightenment into accepting the imperfection of all around us.
Once we progress past love as a romantic notion and see love as something more wholesome and all encompassing, then i believe that the world loves back at us, imperfections and all.
I really like the phrase coined by a recent songwriter \'perfect imperfections\'.
All of this twaddle i have just written i can see in your piece today.
Nice one!

Good write, we do many things in our past that we may regret but they are done for a reason and that reasoning leads you to a brighter tomorrow.

This will be great for your young kids Dan. Writing for young ones is such fun isn\'t it.
Let us know how your piece here is received by them.

Don\'t invite me round to sing. it won\'t be healing. It\'ll be torture. lol. They\'ll think it\'s two cats fighting, but there ya go.

Yes a healing piece of tender care and wise advice Dan - and a fine tribute from a Dad who knows how to comfort his children. A lovely read.

sylviasearcher said:

Was this for one of your children?

If so we were simultaneously writing about our children!

I wonder if it is the time of year?

My boys never stop teaching me and I can never stop believing in them!

Hey this really resonated with the theme of a book I\'m slowly writing...

Thanks for sharing

This was a super write Dan. Most people do not open up and share the inner self. I think it is a part of the healing process. Pleased to know you at least somewhat.

A thoughtful write Dan.
Meanwhile - people wish they did not have to listen to me singing. Why have the shops run out of ear plugs?! heehee.

dusk arising said:

Here we are like a brotherhood of understanding and nurture. Its good that you are able to let your soul speak so freely among us and your words are learned - a lesson for us all. Of humanity, dignity and self exploration for the purpose of being the finest you can be.
Great to read your open heart therapy.

Good write Dan, the \"experts\" may know what it is but it is people who can LISTEN to you who can help the most, talking to those who listen can cure many things.
I am a listener and I have seen it happen to people who talk to me who know that I am LISTENING and understanding their troubles but not necessarily giving them a cure.

Another amazing poem, I found myself connecting with each and every line! We all must strive to achieve something noble and have each others backs at the same time!

When we sway
dusk arising said:

Sway in the breeze of life my friend as it wafts you through revelation after revelation like a dance to the rhythm of existence itself. Akin to the humdrum of trance there are highs and lows but long may your music play,... dance, sway.... dance away.

July 22nd, 2018 03:47

I am assisting are you listening
Goldfinch60 said:

Very true write. We can learn from all age groups.
