Judge With Clear Insight The authenticity of ones self is measured by his repetition of deeds done. As humans we measure are progress forward by things gained, weather mentally or possessed. Onlooker’s view only from what their eye can see and the brain can clearly understand. But to the human eye there is not the possibility to see ones soul. The world goes about prophesying and blaming their brothers for what they do not see clearly, or could never understand unless revealed to them with wisdom and insight. To possess a real measure of understanding we must, always see and have clear authority on the picture before us. The understanding of others mentality and abilities lie’s with in us all, if we would but just stop for a moment and pay due attention to those around us with wisdom and judge nobody but our own lack of clear foresight.

To possess a real measure of understanding we must, always see and have clear authority on the picture before us. I like this... Rings loud and true in my ears. I can completely understand the importance of having knowledge before passing judgement... This would be a good thing for all of us to practice more often, especially myself. =P |

Wisdom and prose combined. Nice combination. Well done. A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |

It is so strange, but I find that I can't even make judgements on those I think I know very well. And many friends and even family members have told me that they never knew me until they read my poetry. I'm sure many poets have had that experience. I liked your poem A lot of insight on your part Liz |

Now I will reach for the stars... Because Oh my love, that's where you are... Though the storms of black night rage on I still see your face I still feel your lips on mine And though my heart feels all alone without you I still hear you sing to me I still hear your voice on the sea... vertical horizon |

Hi Liz, You said something that is true in my life to. I don't judge anyone and some times I should asert myself, but nobody in my life knows me or how I feel or what I think and they don't seem to want to know either, but here I can express myself and freely so they are the ones that are missing out. Hi Denise, Wise words, I keep poping this kind of stuff out and I don't know why, its very hard for me to write about love or funny things, maybe its because life is so hard, some times I feel like everyone is going to shy away from my poetry because its always so deep and strange. Hi Janet, Words of wisdom, yes I have had plenty of lessons in my life and repeating I do until some thing is hammerd in to my head but I get the point some where down the line. Thank you so much for all of your kind words and thoughts, Cerenity |

Cerenity, You have outdone yourself with this one. I try to isolate the truth when I write and you have accomplished that here. Very well done! INclan |
