Those hurdles look sooooo big, though.

I wish I could live life in that "zone" though, but I don't know how.

Teach me?

I love your poem and am fascinated by the multiple ways of connecting the photo with the poem, Margherita.

Trust can so often be misplaced, but the rewards of trusting (for the trusting and the trusted) whether misplaced or not, are such deeply enriching soulfood, that we should never let misplaced trust deprive us of the courage, light, positivity and happiness to trust again.

Thank you, dear JL, for the most loving comment.

Dear Charly, I really enjoy the surprise of you reading my stuff and thank you very much for appreciating it.

Dear Karen, thank you for expressing your thoughts here. I am as much in the learning process as you, my dear! We learn forever while down here on Earth and I have not yet reached that peak from where fear is totally banned (and probably never will), but I know that fear is humanity's greatest enemy. Out of fear we act with violence, out of fear we materialize our worst visions, out of fear we dare not LOVE AND TRUST EACH OTHER. When we trust the future (despite the huge problems) we are driven to co-create this future, by being CREATIVE, by acting for the wellbeing of all, by being aware of all the beauty and by expanding this beauty within ourselves and in our surrounding world. Fear blocks us and makes us curl up in a corner, from where we can't see the light and the good which IS.
Oh, forgive me, for talking too much! You are a child of eternity and I wish you to feel your bond with Universe so that you can face the challenges of life, diminishing fear and increasing trust.

Dear Diana, thank you so much for your insightful and loving reply. I choose the picture to accompany my words and see those colored waves as the impulses of our soul connection to the Source, from where the creator light reaches deep into us.

Love and creativity!

Margherita

look into the sun
and see what you cannot see
more than you'd have thought

Yes, creativity is our future--in the hands of the poets and dreamers. Nice fusion of futuristic photo with spiritual poem!

Love your poem Margherita,
Your poem tells me,

trust in yourself
to trust in your dreams
then creativity becomes reality

Is this the message?

Thank you, dear Jerry, for your loving poetic reply. When we find the Light and are able to contemplate it, we sip at the divine Source. Yes.

Thank you, dear flash, I appreciate your thoughtful comment very much.

Hey, dear Balladeer, love to have you on board! Thank you!

Dear Ebonygirl, thank you so much. Yes, that is another way to look at it and the results are the same. Beautiful interpretation.

Love,
Margherita

And the trust well is ever deep
if one sinks in enough faith,
right, my dear?

Thank you both, dear Karilea and dear Ruth, for your most loving comments.

Faith, yes, in ourselves and in our Divine Source. And trust in our ability to live in harmony with Universe and its laws, and trust in our ability to create a world of love and justice, and to maintain its beauty and resources.

Love and inspiration!
Margherita
