I finally think I can stop this idea I am not worthy of my life
What I went through to get here needs no more advice
I'm blessed to of been given all the tools that I need
Every person has been a teacher to water my seed
It is not in an attempt to show off any great defeats
Yet a desire to live every moment to the fullest
My personal c.v needs a briefcase to contain it
This mountain of failures has now trained me for something
For its not just about the dogs I work with and help
This connection I make with people is unexplainable
Again I've got a call for a job that other professionals had seen
In this person poor view, they still didn't know what to do
Within only 1 hour I had made them feel better
More than the others written down reports and instructions
This to me, is because on this occasion the person opened up
We shared our broken stories and making it though
Acknowledging that there is always more work to do
But with a little bit of recognition we see it gets easier and true
Everything that's around us is doing what we want it to
Our processes of life comes from every core belief
We've shaped ourselves from the perception we feel
I now know I'm a walking talking everyday message of this
As it is not a special gift only I was born with
Our ability to handle life is inside everyone
Wounds and scars can not only be healed, but can reveal that's not even what they are!
It's all just tunnels of training to go through to remember who we are
This is not just about unconditional love in light
It's knowing the uncomfortable darkness keep us searching high
Until the only thing left is to just watching the clouded thoughts go by
Breathing in from the roots of every forgiven memory
It's never easy to share our pain but if done properly it will be halved
This path is no longer long, from this moment I chose to get off
I shall not be restricted by the future or past
With balance, finding our harmony in the moments
From all words & actions, left written or ringing out from spoken

maybe, you were not meant to sleep until you had got all this off ya chest... maybe it was just meant to be... whatever the case, you have certainly captured and penned some incredibly uplifting thoughts and insights.... a very interesting & indeed compelling read sir... good on ya.... Neville
Ended up watching a 2 hour lecture till 4.30am and now off to do a job back in my home town after dropping the kids off!
Life is definitely changing and I really feel like I'm the one doing it.
You have definitely been a wonderful part of me finding this out!
Much peace and respect
Always your way
smiling and back at ya...
Empathy, know what that is? Well youve got it in shedloads... thats how u relate to people so well. You've been there, you've lived it..... you didnt go to uni and learn all about it and get some letters after ya name to prove youre a qualified ex uni geek! ..... NO!.. for you, living it, without any choice, living it day to day every day - THAT taught you. And yeah, youre damned right. You are fully paid up, fuily qualified to do what the F u want to do innit?
Enjoyed reading your words today poet.
As I enjoyed yours my friend the tears that came are from the relief from genuine people like you. Knowing that it is safe to continue to be as open as I've ever been, the truth is in the pudding.
Thank you for your wisdom over so many subjects and holding a place in my heart that gives me my own authority to be who I say I am!
To say you're inspirational is not just words mate. And to prove it i just wrote this piece for you/about you. Just keep doing what you're doing.
dont take me back, i am already there
i shall never leave my 'then'
for it's not the burden i thought it was
it's the strength that makes men, 'men'
the rocky ground i walked upon
has become a mountain on which to stand
and look the world straight in the eye
grasping opportunity with both my hands

Good write Dan.
Meanwhile (meaning something daft will follow!) 'Did he fall or was he pushed?' 'Wasn't me guv; I never pushed him off the cliff!' (heehee).
Your life has now been remedied and you are back on course to sail the Sea of Delight and Wonder that lies before you Dan, that sea may get choppy on occasions but it will never get rough. Well done my friend, well done.
Andy.
