Love
In its purist form
Provides friendship with safe passage
Toward the future
Fear
Creates defensiveness; when defensiveness filters into love
Dark clouds fog clarity, misunderstandings storm down, and fury roars
Common sense
Suggests that as defensive fears mess with clarity
Negatve attitudes and indignation jeopardize the good health of friendship
Insight
Shines spotlights on negative attitudes, which cause negative change
And burying our heads in denial of deeper truths makes matters worse
Wisdom
Directs positive focus toward logical quests where deeper truths emerge
With hope intact, common sense and insight inspire positive change
Love in its purist form
Grows mindful of developing self confident strengths
Which muster the courage to place defensive negativity in time out
Love in its purist form
Musters the humility to seek guidance, not to justify the wounded self
But to develop understanding, compassion and forgiveness, again and again
Love in its purist form
Inspires friendship
To seek self improvement
Love in it's purest form opens it's mind to new trains of thought
Until insecurity (fear) is recognized, defensive traits reform
And injured friendships heal
Love in its purist form
Suggests that relationships do not take work
What takes work is identifying defensive traits
Love in it's purist form
Works to identify fearful traits
Which undermine generosity of spirit
Love in its purist form
Is at one with self confident humility, open minded courage
And generosity of spirit
Love in it's purist form
Embraces generosity of spirit
Which has no need to 'put another down'
Love in it's purist form
Seeks deeper truths
In hopes of planting the seeds for a happy home
Want to create a happy home?
Plant healthy attitudes into young minds, and as emotional security matures
Watch as generosity creates a spirit of togetherness
Love in it's purist form
Works to model generosity of spirit
Where friendships strengthen, blossom, and thrive
Love in its purist form
Has patience for human imperfection ... until
A relationship, sinking in quicksand, drowns your spirit, as well
We each captain our own ships through the darkness of despair
If two captains can not steer away from crashing head on
Each may need to walk the plank ... I mean walk a separate path—
(At least for awhile ...)
Love in it's purist form
Breathes life into hope
Hope, reaching out for positively focused help, sparks personal growth
As long as two people are on this side of the grass
Who's to know what new hope tomorrow may bring?
And as tomorrow is only a day away ... may I suggest
Tis wise to stop flogging love
By way of allowing dark clouds of fearful thoughts
To fog clarity
I mean, think about it ...
Who in their clear mind
Wants to walk the plank?
When the mind opens
Removes it's blindfold
And consciously chooses to seek clarity ...
Love in it's purist form
Connects with deeper truth
Deeper truths retire put downs; blame fade away, and friendship thrives, anew
