It’s not the August moon that shines down happiness but the lining of a brain wave that rubs itself gently so across, over, and around each and every thought process. And the intent like a freckle sits unnoticed on my back until the twist and turn from all I’ve had to learn leads me grandly to reclaim what has been but never seen. So happiness a freckle then and indeed it’s anything that mind can perceive when allowed to wander free. I drop my freckle sometimes though when I’m in denial but I do the twist; I’ve learnt to twist just like I did last summer! Helen / 25 November 2008 |

Alot to think about in this one. I have read it a few times and it has lead me in two different directions of thought. I am sure I will have to read it again. One thing I do know is that even the best of intentions sometimes get sidetracked but if it is in us then it usually finds it's way back. Very much enjoyed. |

interesting write, and I agree with Mark...so many directions with each read...still not sure I've got a handle on it yet, will be going back to try again...definitely a very clever write... |

Thanks everyone! I guess words like life can be a mystery but perhaps it's worthwhile delving a bit because one never knows what can be uncovered. In a few words, think happiness, honour the intention of that thought and then one is happy. Sounds easy but we've just "gotta" do the twist first and that's something that needs to be learnt. And even when we know it, we still drop that damn freckle every now and again which is just a testimony to our human nature and not a train smash in the grand scheme of things. Something like that.
