Whatever Will Be I suppose there comes a point in life where you don't analyze things anymore you don't shuffle thoughts or try to answer all the questions like you did before. You don't attempt to reason why or get on track so you can say "I may be onto something here", growing decision trees that go one way. You no longer create hypotheses or state that you have a mission you don't talk about tomorrow or justify yesterday by wishin'. Life doesn't become easier at all it's difficult whether you're bound or free- trees don't always grow up to the sky and you won't always find out why... but nothing's strange when you finally see to believe in whatever will be. |

I felt a strong strength in this poem. yes, the strength of standing up and preparing to soar. |

When the past and the future don't interfere, you can enjoy the moment of Now. Yes believe in whatever will be, in its intrinsical value. Significant words, very efficiently rendered feelings. Love and hugs. Margherita ![]() |

this is a great poem, one from somebody who has learnt to accept lifes changes and twists, someone who perhaps now realises that they have all the experience and emotional tools to deal with whatever comes their way. it has a comfortable factor about it and i liked that alot. ![]() |

‘Life’ eventually ‘gets away from’ us all !...... I especially liked: “I suppose there comes a point in life where you don't analyze things anymore you don't shuffle thoughts or try to answer all the questions like you did before.” and: “You no longer create hypotheses or state that you have a mission you don't talk about tomorrow or justify yesterday by wishin'.’ much applause ....for this thoughtful/philosophic ‘write’! |

Reminds me of the old Doris Day song below ,I guess remembering that is showing my age Que Sera, Sera, Whatever will be, will be The future's not ours, to see Que Sera, Sera What will be, will be. Hope |

actually Hope S said exactly what I wanted to say (same song, same era, universal truth) but I like the old saying that says we should learn to have the courage to change the things we can, the grace to accept the things we cannot, and the wisdom to know the difference (regarding change, of course) excellent write, enjoyed |

I too have watched you grow Dixie and been truly amazed I have yet to find the point where I don't try to answer the questions it just becomes a more peaceful search and the answers are much more clear keep on keeping on dear friend |

I am always impressed with your ability to at once display strength and vulnerabilty and express it in a tender language. Eric |

there does come a time when you just live, and you captured that, beautifully. |
