Wow this was an incredibly thought provoking piece, a teacher in occupation does not always translate to the true meaning; not in the way you\'ve represented it here, brilliant write Gold!

We are all teachers and students too. I\'m sure you\'ll agree we never stop learning. The teaching done at school is the easy stuff, regimented into a curriculum. The teaching done away from school is the important stuff in living.
Its a hit and miss game how we learn and what lessons we actually do learn in that way. But it never stops and daily we are given the opportunity to re-learn and change some aspect of our outlook upon this existence.

A fine write Gold. I heard a teaching method, in 3 stages
* I (the teacher) do; you (the pupil) watch.
* You do; I watch
* You do! (without me watching)

The grand images that nature gives us are ever changing and we get to take our glimpse at any moment in time.

BRIAN & ANGELA said:
SKY above is brighter Blue
EARTH beneath is sweeter Green
Something gleams in every Hue
Godless eyes have never seen !
Because I am an Environmental Scientist
I see extra dimensions in Nature
But it is as a Christian that I see it as
The handiwork of my Creator God
That is see its true Beauty ~ Purpose ~ Order & Design !
Thanks for sharing & inspiring ~ Yours B & A
Finlandia is always in my TOP 10 ~ and of course it inspired
that great Hymn \"Be still my Soul ....... !\"

Perfection Failed.
BRIAN & ANGELA said:
Thanks STEVE ~ The perfect fusion of JAZZ & CLASSICS ~ Like Yehudi Menhuin & Stephan Grapelli ~ is awesome ! Love the message in the Poem ~ However in many walks of life we do strive for perfection and sometimes get near it ! When GOD designed the plants ~ He built in Biosynthetic Pathways to produce the DEEP RED of a Rose or the scent of JASMINE ! You know that using Radioactive tracers we can now examine these pathways ~ thinking God\'s thoughts after HIM. When I worked on Plant biosynthesis and unravelled the route ~ I felt this was perfection because we were exploring the creative Mind of God ~ AMEN ~ Yours BRIAN & ANGELA

There is so much wisdom shared in these words! We do often strife for perfection which is impossible to obtain. Thanks for reminding us we are only human. Great write.

Firstly, a big BIG thank you for introducing me to the Classical Jazz Quartet. Wonderful to hear a familiar and famous piece played with feeling by obviously excellent muso\'s. I will definately be investigating them further.
Great writing again today conveying a wholesome message.
Satisfaction with ones achievements along a path of improvement - possibly seeking the mytical goal of perfection - will indeed bring happiness. Being aware of and accepting ones own shortcomings is true self knowledge. In recent years a songwriter penned - in words of admiration - \'your perfect imperfections,\' perhaps bringing the subject more easily into focus.

Agree with your words here Goldi - perfection should not trouble us as we try our best - - love the number you chose of classical jazz - just my choice too and shame they made so few.

A fine write Gold. I have heard: \'If you are looking for the perfect church and seem to have found it - don\'t join it. You\'ll only spoil it!\' doh!
You found that perfect whisky? It\'ll be the one without water.

Unbroken Love.
BRIAN & ANGELA said:
HELLO ANDY ~ ANGELA HERE FROM NZ. Its 7am (Wednesday) here and I\'ve just woken up and I always check my Laptop before BREAKFAST and Check MPS to see what BRIAN has been up to! I love the mellowness of Johnny Mathis and this song especially : your Wife has good taste. Your Poem really made me think about TRUE LOVE and how readily it adapts to circumstances which SUPERFICIAL LOVE could never survive. In my LINE as a PHYSIO I deal with patients whose mobility (and often mental capacity) is reduced through STROKES, HEAD INJURIES and SPORTS INJURIES. I have done Counselling Courses with the Church and through the NHS. Part of my Job (alongside the Medical Staff) is to explain to Loved Ones the medium and long term effect on Physical Mobility and Mental Capacity. I have always found that with those Truly in Love they are more able to accept bad scenarios. You have hinted in other poems that there are restrictions in your lives but you accept these graciously because you Mutual Love grows deeper & sweeter \"Day by Day by Day\" ! It encourages me, when you refer to your Lovely Wife as \"MY LOVER\", to believe that the Love BRIAN & I have for each other will survive any vicissitude! Thanks for sharing I\'ll be Crying in the Shower: Love to You & Your Wife ANGELA (NZ) XXXX
