Freeing Soul What words, ~ gone ~ in putting aside the reticent voices that have beleaguered my soul these long, lost, years was there wisdom in that voice, that whisper of passion now lost to the winds of time? What ear or eye missed the spark of light that was never fully kindled to awake ~ Morpheus ignored me often in an attempt to lead me to my destiny ~ in fear I held back but in age, now forge ahead what to fear? What can one say to me that has not been said before, and still I stand if I please you not, then perhaps it is I who has not been satisfied by you… two sides to every stroke of the pen and no white without the black to ponder upon No Socrates, I ~ but a being who reaches out in desire of one thing to ever last that being the whisper of a soul who might roam far into tomorrow to give voice to yet one more who would whisper in the darkness what to fear? Only self. Begone, self… the soul must fly… 13 May 01 [This message has been edited by Lady In White (edited 05-13-2001).] |

There is no teacher like experience....we do reach a point where there is little to fear since we have indeed heard it all....it is a release.. |

It's a dirty shame - we don't learn faster = Great writing LiW - no matter your subject - your writing is telling |

LP...indeed, no bold required....thank you... Balladeer, I take it you would agree, then, that we all learn something new every day....and when we don't, it's time to hang it up....me, I'm on the course of ever-learning, and ever-searching... Saunni, then I shall agree with your agree.... JanetMarie, I, too, am one with whisperings....thank you.... Gentle Spirit, I so enjoy your writing, thank you very much for looking in on mine... Mr. Yeats, to learn faster, use our learning wiser, and know more sooner than later...that would be wonderful...thank you! |

if I please you not, then perhaps it is I who has not been satisfied by you… ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Truly spoken. ~~~~~~~~~~ whispers in darkness not in hiding, but boldly speaking those lost words Live for love. Without love, you don't live. |
