always the rebel side gets into trouble fighting bloody-knuckle to defend what I believe rooting for the underdog ‘cause victory is sweet on everyone always tell the truth even when it doesn’t suit not afraid of powers political games don’t interest and every moment living real time pulls back to me don’t know what crimes you could possibly accuse that I’m not already currently concurrently doing time for daily I pay my dues something from past generations nightly I pray for absolution and God only answers with silence rattling the bars in frustration it is then that I realize after all this time it is I who holds the keys to exoneration compensation and forgiveness and freedom feels good . |

Why do I feel like standing up and clapping. You do that to me, you know -- just drag me right into your words. It's a special thing about you. I have missed you. Alison |

Dear Brown-eyed Beauty, it was great getting to know you ever better with this self expose! The more I learn ~ the more I like you! While reading your closing lines, the theme song from the movie "Rocky" played in my head! "rattling the bars in frustration it is then that I realize after all this time it is I who holds the keys to exoneration compensation and forgiveness and freedom feels good" ~ and yes, freedom can feel VERY good! Love you! Linda |

This write exudes real power ... your power, dear Shellie. I believe Universe always sends answers for our highest good, but we are not always synchronized ... But you actually did find the answer ... you know you have the key to freedom. Thank you, for this reminder, you just channeled Universe's response and poured it into my heart. Love and hugs.

i'm really diggin this piece...its fast paced hard hitting and poignant. and it has a good message. funny how it takes us years to figure out we had the answers all along. zaac I kept wondering why that frisbee kept getting bigger and bigger....and then it hit me. |

I enjoyed your revelation. Too often people blame other people or the cruel world for their own predicaments when it is they themselves that hold the key out of bondage. |

Sorry Shellie, I meant to tell you not to leave those keys out of your hand ever. You be the one who calls the shots. I'm sure you are quite capable of doing that. Great post my dear. Love. Lindsay |
