4am Questions

Poetic Dan

I have a lot of questions, I think I always have, But these are really frustrating so I'm going to write them out.

Why has it never felt right playing by the rules?
Why do I hate this world so much but see beauty in it too?
Why do we all tell stories of a better way but yet none of it is real?
 
If we all truly wish no harm to the person next to us,  then who broke the chain huh? What's the deal?
If no one knows what's truly best for you, why are we still seeking for each others approval?

Why do I know I'm not the only one that knows we all go along just pretending it's not me? because know matter what's your status in this life we all started out as kids.

How comes no one likes to be forced but yet we force ourselves?

These weren't the questions that first came into my head but I thought I'd start some where to get a bit of relief, I thank you if you are listening? 


I'll now take a deep breath to find my answer within... walking on the beach after no sleep, finding my ball that got lost by somebodys dogs and any other rubbish that I find once I finish this line....

Back home and ready to send it out into the World Wide Web, wondering if it will have any difference not being just in my head?

    Erm, dunno, I was asleep at 4am, not thinking! heehee.
    Have to come back and look at these questions again, or some them.

    • Poetic Dan

      Haha, not to worry I won't go on tomorrow will be a lighter one.

      I don't have the answers either. I wish the chain had never broke. I would have helped you pick up the rubish. I hate polluted beaches. Fine write!

      • Poetic Dan

        Yet you answered so perfectly and repaired part of the chain. For the mental ones inside our minds are far stronger than we think, then a part of you was with me helping clear what washes up our way.
        Making this a happy new day!

          Great. I love getting my feet wet.

          I'd offer a rather simple explanation to all of your queries. You pose these questions because as an intelligent being you have the capacity to be your own 'devils advocate'. Whilst loving 'our' world you see its imperfections. Your vivid (poetic) imagination sees other ways and possibly the imperfection of those other ways too..
          I would encourage you to entertain the teachings of the Buddha. Walking the beach at night is therapy. 'Where do i fit into this whole damn thing'.

            What wonderful answers buddy, thank you so much although that last little bit left food for thought.

          • Michael Edwards

            I've plenty of answers but I need to identify the questions - of dear - it's a hard life.

            • Poetic Dan

              That reply has left me a bit stumped, it may be hard one but definitely worth while.
              Thank you and always appreciated

              Oh god I can relate to these questions far too well! 4am is prime thinking time, about the world we live in about the universe. So many questions and little answers. you're not alone In your thought process! ~E

              • Poetic Dan

                Like we've been under a spell for to long, thank you for joining me on this one.
                Truly appreciate every single word

                • E-Poems

                  Exactly that. Sometimes my own head scares me I think that much. You're welcome ~ E
