i watch people.
humans.
trying to understand them.

they take something simple, like Love.
and construct all their elaborate games around it.
that's why they lose.

if you want to know about Love,
you have to risk what you really value.
yourself.

I'd say that's a pretty good philosophy! I appreciated the words!

Watching people makes it even more confusing if you are trying to actually understand them!!! (LOL). Very good poem and ideas expressed.

I can't control
my destiny
I trust my soul,
my only goal
is just to "be"

Hi!

ethome:
>I'd say that's a pretty good philosophy! I >appreciated the words!

thanks!
(don't worry, everyone's welcome in my imagination revolution, even aliens -

)

"Love" is a short word, yes?
the feeling is similar - simple.
no arguments, it just "IS".

so opposite to what people know,
"it should be difficult to be worth anything". umm, no.

that's probably why it drives folks nuts.

but humans add their games and then they get hurt - silly humans!

do the math:
Love + games = pain.
the letters are all wrong,
doesn't evem rhyme.

i got that idea at the zoo.
who's really in a cage?

>(LOL). Very good poem and ideas expressed.

one day, Love will be the ideal,
until then, i'm just ranting.
or i'm crazy....tom

well it an easy measure of what something is worth..by what you are willing to give up for to obtain it.

Enjoyed the thought, although I would and could debate the absolute following of this... of course..I do just like to debate...( laughing)
