FredPeyer said:

A very thought provoking poem. Amazing how much you can say
while rhyming it all the way!
You are right, it is hard to be organized when ideas fly all over the place. Which one to follow that is the question.

Inner perspectives
FredPeyer said:

Short and to the point. A well written point I might add. Too often we THINK we are in the driver\'s seat, when in fact we are not. Are we driven by our ego, by our emotions, or in tune with our subconscious?
Mahalo for this puzzle that will probably occupy me for quite a while.

The trust paradox
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Very timely AVI in today\'s SCAM & SHAM Society ~ who can we TRUST anymore ?

Truth ~ Reliability ~ Unselfish ~ Safe ~ Tried & Tested for me AVI these are the essential Acrostic elements of TRUST !

And of course LOVE ! I trust you AVI ~ for advice and counsel ~ because I have grown to LOVE you and your wisdom & principles ! You LOVE me because I am (usually) a Good Student ! Thanks again for sharing caring and stimulating ! Love & Hugs ~ Best Boy BRIAN (UK)

those tiny things
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

As you know AVI ~ I am a BIOCHEMIST and the Human Body is fearfully and wonderfully created. We are designed to maintain equilibrium ( homeostasis) and cope with most microbes (bacteria) and \"impurities\" in our drinking water and the air we breath. Of course there are limits but to my mind (and i am a food scientist !) society has become a little too sterile and kids don\'t get a chance to build up antibodies by playing in the dirt ! In CUBA we were warned not to dink the TAP WATER and were supplied with BOTTLED (free !) The problem is in the UK & USA we use potable water to wash our cars. Global Warming is a Problem as also are the pollutants caused by the \"unscrubbed\" use of coal in Power Stations. The human body can cope with the minor pollutants in the UK & the USA but most Americans are now saying \"We can\'t cope with TRUMP\" and over 60% want Him out of the White House ! Thanks for caring (Sterile) Love & Hugs ~ Doctor BRIAN XOX

FredPeyer said:

You are so right, and as usual express it very eloquently. We absorb much too much unknown \"tiny things\", trusting the food companies that it is ok, when in fact many of them may cause cancer or other ills. Glad you came up with this poem, have to check again what I eat and drink.

we the explorers
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

MAN was created as an EXPLORING ANIMAL ! We KNOCK and doors OPEN ~ We ASK and we RECEIVE ~ We SEEK and (thank GOD !) we FIND ! I have had the privilege of being engaged in Scientific Research ~ a refined and academic form of Exploration & Discovery ~ the supreme satisfaction is adding Truth to the conceptual map of knowledge ~ Pictures of the far side of the MOON ~ new Chemical Elements ~ the CURIES with POLONIUM (84) and RADIUM (88) ~ the structure of DNA ~ Crick ~ Watson ~ Franklin (1952 / 3) and Human achievements in all other fields past present & future ~ Because we are and always will be \"Born to Explore\" ~ because it\'s there ! Thanks for stimulating ~ Love & Hugs ~ Brother BRIAN XOX

FredPeyer said:

Really, really like your poem. Aren\'t we writers all explorers? Trying to find deeper meaning in every day words? Delving into the human condition, searching for hidden truths?

Writing:
onepauly said:

what I feel is, you have an empty pad of paper and a pen in the other hand. sometimes you know right away what your going to write and it happens. still you have to fix it to make sense. and sometimes you have to scratch it out in your mind.
good enough?

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thanks AVI ~ very thought provoking ! The moving hand doth write ~ and having writ moves on ~ nor all thy piety nor wit ~ can move it back to cancel half a line ~ nor all thy tears wash out a word of it ! The PEN (PC) is mightier than the SWORD and i am STUPID (or should that be BOLD) enough to both PUBLISH & PERISH ! Please check my DEJA VU POEM ~ you will love it ! Love & Hugs as always ~ Your No. 1 Student BRIAN XOX

Words that break walls
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thanks AVI we all need good Man~management and good interpersonal and communication skills ! It is necessary to cooperate ~ inspire & impact ~ which (in my experience too) gets people on board and ultimately impress them ! That ~ as you say ~ builds the TEAM ~ To keep them on board is more difficult but if we follow your 4E\'s Empower ~ Embrace ~ Encourage ~ Engage then its is MISSION ACCOMPLISHED ! Working in a 16 ~ 30 College I have to initiate ~ stimulate and lead many Fluid Teams and your 4I\'s and 4E\'s are an excellent model for me ! Thanks for teaching & caring ~ Love & Hugs ~ BABY BRIAN XOX Please check my ANIMAL ~ Developing Fusion ~ Thanks B.

Oh! You are so right. It happened to me before. To get to know someone so tough and then suddenly realize how they truly were inside. Like a little kid lost and looking for direction, but playing tough just to hide the feelings. Well written and displayed. Thanks for your writing.

Love and its siblings
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

LOVE AVI ~ Is a multifaceted emotion ~ but I try to be open to all its aspects AGAPE (spiritual love) STORGE (love for humanity) PHILEO (FamilyLove) and EROS (Physical love). As you know ~ I love GOD and GOD is Love. So I am physically and spiritually programmed to LOVE not HATE. Of course sin & evil can hinder the Power of Love at all levels. The LOVE I share with you is SPIRITUAL (AGAPE) because you are a SPIRITUAL PERSON. For me this is the highest form of LOVE between two people (it transcends space & time) and is much more satisfying than the other three. Thanks for caring & sharing ~ Love in the SPIRIT ~ BRIAN XOX

Do we act like robots?
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

YES ~ YES ~ YES AVI # And the answer is the Fobile Moan of the Mobile Fone 5 billion People Worldwide (68% of the Worlds population) own a CELL PHONE ~ including CHILDREN as young as THREE in Japan. I have never owned one and never will ! My Employer offered to buy me one (for contact) but I refused. I check my lap-top at least twice a day (8am & 10pm) and poeple know they can contact me that way. In LONDON everyone on the Street and in the TUBE is on a mobile all speaking in KEYWORDS ~ ROBOTS. Lots of questionnaires etc wont let you proceed unless you include a mobile ~ so iff essential I give my Girl Friend\'s she is OK about it. She is a Physio an Acupuncturist and Masseuse so she says she needs one for work ! I may have to marry a ROBOT ! I have a \"normal\" phone in my Flat and at Work but even they are intrusive ! Texting has made \"spelling\" (even US spelling !) obsolete and ROBOTS now talk in text. I was ONE in 1984 but it came and went with a whimper but in the 21st C we are all controlled by the THOUGHT POLICE and If they ever force me to have a MOBILE PHONE or implant one in my BRAIN I will choose Prison even though most UK Jailbirds have access to a MOBILE inside ! Thanks for caring ~ I AM NOT A ROBOT ~ YET ! Love & Hugs (my keywords) Your favorite Pupil ~ BRIAN XOX Forgive me if I misunderstood your message ~ but I like to rant on abut the \"CURSE OF THE CELL PHONE\" ~ Mea Culpa ~ BRIAN XOX
