Having A Firm Grip On Wisdom My Aim I may claim to have wisdom, but I lack it’s powers. I have experienced many a trial, but have not moved past the point of giving unnecessary blood. To fully understand wisdom is to maintain it’s firm grip even among the toughest of adversary’s. I’ve maintain this unsteady position, having to fight to not fall of the balance beam that life is. Not that I do not want to fully grasp wisdom’s power and control loss of my life force, but something keeps me in a holding position. It could be that I do not except the answers that lay in front of me. These truths ask of me to much, and so I maintain in this realm of upheaval. To know the rights from the wrongs, but deny forward movement is to accept its punishments. So my fight goes on until that day I am tried of the abuse I willing let happen from my adversary’s. The fight will make the victory so sweet when myself empowered wisdom takes a firm grip, and this day I shall walk tall and proud, firmly stanced. By, Cerenity |

"We're looking through a telescope, searching the stars for the answer, when the answer is actually a speck of dirt on the telescope's lens". Jason Q. We like to believe that have a firm grasp on wisdom, but is it the right wisdom that we cling to? We all want to learn and grow but there are many obstacles in the way, it is a struggle which you have explored beautifully in your poem. An amazing poem. I love this image, "These truths ask of me to much, and so I maintain in this realm of upheaval." |

Cerenity, my friend~ Your wisdom lies in a heart that feels and therefore you've crossed the plane of recognition. Applying the wisdom you've gleaned is only a heartbeat away. Very wise thoughts you've penned, my friend. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

I think we all should read this. What I got from this is that things are never how we think they are. How true that is! I really enjoyed the truth in your words. Thanks, Lori |

Hi Brian, That line about the telescope good one. Yes your right which is the right wisdom, you know you got me on that one cause what my right is may not be someone else's. I guess thats the answer whats my right has to be what I want with in reason of so called normans. Thank you very much for your thoughts. Hi ESP, Thank you, I hope so too. My achievements seem to always be so challenging thats ok i'll make it RIGHT!!!! Hi Marge, Oh my friend movement is happening round here, alittle here, alittle there, and me well you have been such a blessing, Thank you so much. Hi Lori, Nice to meet you, Truth or wisdom both imply movement forward twards the positive. Key words being FORWARDS & POSITIVE and sometimes this can make us hold our movement still out of fear of the reactions we think will accure. Thanks Lori for your kind thoughts. Love, Cerenity |

There are so many lessons in life ....some of them hurt, some are sad and some are wonderous and uplifting...but they all have something to teach us. Wonderful poem, Cerenity! |
