Lighten my deeply pensive mood—Aaachoo!
(Though air quality is no better today than yesterday
My think tank feels like writing, so let's see if clarity pops out or not)
Though undergoing growth spurts (each of which resolved
An unidentified conundrum buried deep within my subconscious) had
Once felt as emotionally painful and draining as when
The self-degrading experience had originally taken place, this
Current growth spurt sees my brain feeling calmly pensive, which
Is a change for the better, because
That had not been the case in the past when
Pent-up frustration, reeling stormily deep within my mind, had
Coughed up a subconscious attitude made up of
Closed-minded postulates, which had been drummed into
My head, repeatedly, such as: No pain-no gain
And as I'm sure that that truism has been
Hammered into your head, too, let's see why
Today's Aha! moment serves to spotlight
Sound reason for us to reconsider society’s postulates, together:
First of all, no matter how well-educated we prove to be
We do not know what we do not know as of yet
And that deeper truth suggests another in that
Rules of thumb are not written in stone—
For example: I wonder how long it took to
Disprove mankind’s false belief regarding
The world being flat, and having learned that I’d believed
Many statements about myself, which have
Proved false, my power of intuition suggests reconvening with
Mother Nature from time to time most especially when
I feel need of solitude within a peaceful place where
Postulates, deemed right or wrong by society, may be reconsidered
And as my need for solitude often sees me at the duck pond, feeding
Bite-sized portions pulled from a loaf of whole grain bread to
My fine feathered friends, you may question why
I bring bread that's fresh and wholesome while conjuring up
Food for thought for each of us to consider, and here would be my reply:
It's my habit to munch along with my feathered friends whenever
My conscious mind—hungry for clarity, which calms and resolves
My subconscious power struggles—feels need to
Grow ever more expansive in hopes of deepening my brain’s
Connection to inner peace, which, in turn, broadens my sense of
Free choice each time my conscious awareness digests another
Bite-sized morsel of intuitive insight after ‘conversing’
Openly and honestly with you—wherever in
This wide, wide world you may choose to be ...
PS
As I plan to publish today's post right after penning this postscript
I'll not be surprised to find, upon rereading it on the morrow, that
Editing for clarity will be necessary—Aaachoo!
And having said that, I'll end for today on an up note by stating that
After only one practice Ravi's first soccer game (which proved
Even more comically chaotic than practice, as two teams vied for the ball) was
Lots of fun for everyone involved, most especially because
Goals were not counted, suggesting why no one felt like
A loser, freeing every child's spirit to run off the field, feeling like
A winner, who was eager to sit down with teammates, who were
Creating a brand new circle of friendship where
Buddies, indulging in oranges sliced with love, offered
Each other high fives, all around ...
Following the Pied Piper—time to get team shirts!
You can kick toward the goal or toward your family—right?
Tackle soccer, anyone?
