A song may say it better?

There you go you see. Wisdom and thru wisdom - vision, and thru that combination action!. Brill!
Now reflect upon the torturous path you have travelled, and those who travelled parts of the path with you. Achiever!
Look how you were and also at those who are only beginning and cannot see a path yet. Each will tread a path to wisdom. It\'s important not to stand in their way. Old heads grow on old shoulders.

A self awareness poem and well written, too. I engaged through your thoughts which has left me thinking about my illusions of words and life. Thank you for sharing your inner thoughts. It\'s always good to let them out.

Great self expression. Letting go of frustrations by losing yourself into something else is a really worthwhile practice. Similar to the oft used phrase \'sleep on it, see how you feel in the morning\'\'. Its amazing how having mentally \'let go\' of something for a while gives it a whole new perspective when once again you pick up its reins isn\'t it.
A good book can be a distraction but when my mind is in turmoil over something i get in my car and go for a drive. Something about being out amongst the trees and fields by the roadside remind me of my own insignificant speck status.

Thank you for sharing that. The theme really resinates with the book I will never finish writing.
The video what beauty and strength. That which seems to evade me!

A fine write Dan. You gone? You flown away, as a dragonfly? Where ya gone?!
Though suffering is not the main theme here, I can\'t really go along with all of the quote.
We can\'t really escape suffering, though I try to \'pray it away\' sometimes. The \'detachment\' may cause us to go into escapism, or be insensitive to other\'s sufferings.
Not that I followed Buddha anyway!

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.

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.
