Somewhere over there where a mountain joins the sky a thread is weaved and interlocked with all that’s meant to be and slowly, slowly, carefully it drops down on to earth. It drapes itself invisibly over physical endeavours and trials and tribulations. heartache, illness, death, and this weave of thread no accident or evil bad luck token. It simply comes out as the cloth designed and manufactured to overlay my choices, my wishes, needs, and hopes with pre-determined destiny. And tonight I do not mind what befalls my human life or the attendant agony because thought creates the pattern imagination brings the colour and life cuts the cloth sometime or the other. The cloth of all I thought before would manifest and be lies tattered now and torn but tonight I do not mind because I can think, you know, and most assuredly imagine a new and indestructible overlay for life. I’m busy, busy, every day; no let-up for the mind that creates and colours in my pattern of existence that may only drop to earth when Helen’s dead and gone! Helen / 14 August 2008 |

::smiles:: looky, looky, looky what I found. Far too precious to bump. I will place it back at the top...gently...with the admiration and respect it deserves. ::smiles:: (((Honeybunch))) |

Thank you, Larry! Oh, and the result of not minding is "peace" - the trick is to maintain it but I'm not doing too badly so far.  Helen |

Dear Helen, this is complex thinking, but as long as it brings you peace it's perfect. We always have the choice, but sometimes we prefer to surrender, to just BE. God takes care of us through all our troubles, that's the uplifting thought for when we get weary. I do not mind, but more so I ENJOY to read your exceptionally well written poetry either ... it is a precious gift indeed! Love and hugs, Margherita  |

Thank you all so much for your comments! So life has thrown some stuff to make me mind and it's a battle to get back to where I was when I wrote this. I will get there because it's my intention to do so but for now I'm just feeling it. Helen |
