Thought Less Wondering what is happening feeling it is punishment long overdue becoming imprisoned in one's mind shadow dancing the four corners trying to navigate purpose for which there are no words with mirrored existence the only reality while just wanting a day to call my own. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

I guess everyone is looking for reality in this crazy thing called life which often seems unreal. The final stanza is the best. |

interesting 'write' ! "...becoming imprisoned in one's mind shadow dancing the four corners trying to navigate purpose for which there are no words" some major researchers argue that the human mind (consciousness) 'creates' all internal and external 'reality' and that they are inextricably linked ... [the 'biocentric'/Noetic paradigm (world view)] ... Reflections Night falls in deep shadows, all cares vanishing with the moonlit evening wind. As multitudinous memories dance the dreamscape of the mind, how ‘real’ is space and time? Perhaps there is only a universal, immortal consciousness of infinitely nested connections … and all is truly one. |

Yo dear Nakdthoughts, Every day is a day to call your own. It's just hard to admit it, and to act on it. Sometimes it's best not to call the day your own. Love Bobby |

Dear Maureen, what is this self punishment rubbish, self satisfaction and happiness is far more important than thinking about self punishment. you are far to sweet a person to stay in that frame of mind so look up to the heavens and smile and be happy. Count all your blessings Maureen and I'll bet they far outweigh the sad things in your life. Love and a big hug. Lindsay |

I think we all can relate to these feelings M but you express them and bear them bravely...thank you for doing so in this poem.. Goldenrose. Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength,while loving someone deeply gives you courage. Lao Tzu 6th century BC. |

Thank you everyone. The last 4-5 months have kept me under a strange physical situation, which I may have mentioned in a response a while ago about coughing and choking, gagging hourly etc... due to a sinus drainage problem with no sleep more than an hour each night with no relief. After many trips back and forth to a family DR and no signs of improvement, I chose to go to an allergist (although years ago I wasted money on one just as I have been on the DR these last 5 months.) Yesterday I was told by an allergist that he feels the blood pressure medicine I began taking last year may be causing the problem and with some newer prescriptions feels this will help clear it up. I am waiting hopefully for that day~~ M |
