I dont know if you are right about that throwback, but i know many on here have written of the desire for world peace - self included. Nice writing.

The Bible says in one place: \'God is....\' Erm, that\'s a great help maybe - not! But He just IS - without beginning or end!

Ah! The search for the godhead is never ending. Is it possible once we locate and corner him/her/it that life as we know it may come to an end? Provocative, interesting write!

A fine write. Seems a sort of \'What if.....? poem. We can\'t reverse what\'s already happened; the present is here now; and the future is yet to come. That\'s how I see it.

Thought provoking, but what do you believe a creator or that we invented the creator this was a little ambiguous...still good poem

What is love? Big question, everyone have their own answers.
Nice writing.

My Life
Accidental Poet said:
Your future lies there before you waiting only for your footsteps to make it worn path. But what some are not always taught is to plan your steps carefully so as not to regret them later in life. Very hard to do without the guidance of experienced elders. A very thought provoking write collinsjg. I can relate very well.

My Life
Louis Gibbs said:
We come into this world, time and time again, the product of those many lives and experiences. In that regard I must respectfully disagree with Nicholas\'s take on coming in as a \'blank slate\'. True, we are mentally programmed by parents and culture to fit in, but our basic nature and inherent wisdom come in with us, and remain the determining compass of our lives.
Yes, I believe we can \"fracture the mold\" and \"create my own way\", as you express the proposition so well. Why else would we have bothered to come back ... again? Splendid, thought-provoking poem!

My Life
Nicholas Browning said:
Wired? No. Molded? Yes. Every child is a fresh slate. A parent\'s job is to mold you into a decent person. The path you take in life is ultimately up to you, though. You\'ll have bits and pieces of everything you\'ve been through in the past with you wherever you go. That\'s just how it is. Unless you\'re insane. Crazy people don\'t give no way no how, they just do stuff. Interesting philosophy. Keep up the work.

Echoes the theme of the poem I posted today. Since there are no coincidences, it must be the right time for the message, don\'t you think?
Well done writing, Collins!

Golden Rule
Goldfinch60 said:
It makes sense to me as well. We may not know but I believe there is a Spirit that runs through my life.
I have spoken at length to people of different religions and the upshot is that the true believers all believe in a higher power - Spirit - but approach it in different ways - that Spirit is always the same.

You share my feelings and sum them up beautifully in this poem, JG! Well spoken, indeed. The Golden Rule is all the religious teaching we need.

Your poem reflects the rising of consciousness in the world that it is, indeed, \"Time to evolve.\" A very encouraging trend to bring to our awareness in your fine poem, JG! Thanks.
