Not far from here lies the will of the mighty silent like night giving way to the day in wait and awake to receive messages and process our dreams into reality. But the power of them lazy sometimes reclines between tiers in t-shirt and jeans relaxed in the knowledge of better for all and immune to the call of immediate action. Arise - but they can’t from the purpose of life to show, lead, and guide, those weak of mind to the sky of acceptance of fate, destiny, intended to ripen the fruit of a soul. The will of the mighty; how lazy thou art until I can know, pray, say, and believe, and so of a dream how can it be real when too I am silent from day into night? Arise – but I can’t from tall stakes of fear pegged and secured in my comfort zone and too I’ve been known to recline lazy sometimes immune to the call of soul’s need of more. Last night from sleep I heard my own voice and I asked of no one, no one I could see, “Why am I waking up now, tell me please” and an almighty silence answered me back! Helen / 11 May 2004 |

Thank you so much for reading, Mercury and TerryW. Yes, a wake up call but to what remains to be seen - oh, presuming I'm aware enough to "see" that is. |

Thanks, passing shadows. You are very wise! Startime55 - I'm sorry about the tears but emotion does tell us that we are alive so perhaps not such a bad thing. |
