1321 A NEW YEAR'S WISH: MAY CONFLICT RESOLUTION, OFFERING PURE JOY BE YOURS

Please muster patience, my friend ...
Upon awakening, today
Intuitive thought drew my conscious mind back
To post 1319, yet again, to simplify intuitive trains of  thought, which
Are still filtering into my conscious mind in such a state of
Complexity as to feel too confusing for me to
Express so clearly as to pen a post that you can
Readily understand and absorb
(You can believe me when I say that
Clarifying the mental process whereby
I can 'feel' intuitive thought tapping into insight, which
Highlights deeper truth, which directs my sense of self trust to
Focus on the path where positive focus encourages me to
Replace the apprehension of inner conflict with
A courageous attitude, which maintains a cautious
Step by step approach toward satisfying an unmet need until
My sense of readiness directs self trust to take each
Next leap of faith into the great unknown, has developed
And just as I continue to tap into my brain's potential to
Clarify complexity by mastering these mental powers (each
Of which demands a whale of concentration to develop)
The same can be true for you if you choose to free your
Subconscious of guilt ridden inner conflict that blocks your
Sense of awareness from tuning into intuitive thought, which
Directs your intelligence to carve a path that ventures, step by step, 
Toward meeting a soulful need, which apprehension has denied)

Since the innermost intellectual portion of my brain chose to
Work at simplifying mental complexity, again, while
My conscious mind slept peacefully through the night
Hopefully, you'll choose to review post 1319 in order to
Absorb insights, which had originally
Required mental gymnastics to understand
And with that said, my mind turns to thoughts that inspire
My heart to dance with joy and my spirit to soar, because
Today, Ravi and I have planned a play date, and tonight,
Will and I plan to celebrate New Year's Eve with four dear friends
Then, tomorrow, we plan to breakfast with
Treasured extended family before driving to the airport to
Fetch treasured friends from college, and
As my cup runneth over with
Treasured family
Treasured friends
Good health
A corny sense of humor and
Insight into deeper truths, which, step by step
Inspire personal growth to resolve inner conflicts
In such a logical manner that emotional combustion
Melts away and peace of mind is, once again, mine
You'd think that, having worked, mindfully, to
Acquire such a cornucopia of emotional and
Mental treasures, my ability to fill my mind with
Positively focused attitudes would be as easy as
Reciting my ABC's, right?
If you replied 'yes' please think, again ... this time
More deeply than ever before, for this reason:
Whereas apprehensive attitudes are innate to
The natural state of the human condition, each
Leap of faith taken has depended upon
Challenging self trust to muster the courage necessary
To free my intuitive smarts to think more insightfully
(clearly) than conventional thought patterns allow
And as setting fear aside precedes tapping into
Intuitive thought, here is why
My conscious mind must conjure up
Patience, self trust and positive focus whenever
Emotional complexity creates inner conflict that drives me crazy:
Each time I consciously remind my sense of self trust to
Employ patience to reduce frustration, my brain's tightly knotted tension
Relaxes, and once relaxed, I am more likely to
Tune into intuitive thought, which taps into
Insight into deeper truth, and thus does a self empowering
Sense of self trust employ my Line of Control to consciously calm
Apprehensive attitudes and place them in time out, knowing
That the strength of this mental attitude enhances
My ability to tap into deeper truth to grow ever more
Readily assessable, day by day

As my sense of self trust strengthens
My conscious mind feels encouraged to identify negative attitudes in need of
Positively focused change for the better, and though
Practice does not make perfect, I continue to grow more likely to
Meet with success, today, than been possible as
Recently as yesterday, and each time success is mine
My emotional comfort zones have reason to expand, little
By little, day by day, until eventually, having tunneled
Successfully, toward deeper truth, repeatedly, my comfort zone
Concerning self trust, feels so naturally relaxed as to
Diminish emotionally combustible tension, which had tied my
Logical problem solving skills into knots, and
Once my intelligence feels relaxed, a
Simple plan formulates within my mind's creative center
And, whether that plan bears fruit or not
All is not lost, because I realize that peace of mind is mine
And thus must acquired traits, like courage and patience, be
Consciously cultivated, well practiced, strengthened and valued if
My brain, working as a well balanced whole is to grow
Ever more capable of tapping into intuitive trains of thought that
Shine spotlights of insight on moments of clarity, so as to
Create mindsets, which prove so positively self empowering as to
Calm emotional combustion by way of employing simplicity to
Conjure up heartfelt plans, based in logic, which
Enrich my life and the lives of my loved ones with straight shots of joy

Need an example of how I empower self trust to
Offer my well trained brain free rein to set an intuitive plan in motion?
Since my conscious mind had no clue as to
What I was about to write, today
Can you guess which portion of my brain wrote this post?
Yep!  Intuitive thought, processing more freely and deeply into
My intelligence than conventional thought would allow

If reflection suggests that you had once harbored
An unmet need that inspired your think tank to
Free your intelligence of conventional thought in order to
Pen intuitive emotion, running too deep to
Express verbally with clarity intact, then
You, too, have proof of intuitive trains of thought breaking
Free of conventional thought patterns, which limit
Your brain's innate ability to work as a well balanced whole, thus
Inviting insight into deeper truth to ignite ...

In other words, intuitive thought
Brightens your conscious view of what your
Deepest self truly feels need to do ... However, if apprehension
Causes your think tank to tense up then in the absence of
Self trust, intuition and creativity get sucked back behind
Your defensive wall of denial, and as soon as that happens
Fearful attitudes reconnect with conventional thought patterns that
Focus the conscious portion of your brain toward
Mistakenly thinking that you dare not take the next step ...
Until an existential sense of readiness, steadied by
Consciously strengthening self trust, instructs your
Sense of logic to set fear in time out, releasing your
Intelligence to re-organize your brain in a
Step by step fashion until, one day
You awaken to find that the time feels ripe to
Take that ultimate leap of faith, at long last

Life is either a great adventure or else it is nothing
I didn't write that
Helen Keller did

As to post 1319 ...
As always, the choice to review those editing
Changes for the better or not is yours
As for me, it is now later in the day, and
Ravi can be seen napping, nestled sweetly against me, and
As I, too, plan to enjoy a peaceful afternoon slumber
It's time to express my hope that leadership throughout
Our world learns to create infinitesimal changes for the better
Day by day, and as I can feel today's train of intuitive thought
Pulling into the station, you can imagine
This next thought igniting my smile:
I'm wishing you the happiest, healthiest, most peaceful New Year's ...
Ever ...

1320 HINDSIGHT PLUS INSIGHT TRANSFORM DREAMS INTO CHANGE FOR THE BETTER

While my conscious mind slept peacefully, through the night
Intuitive thought was busily injecting additional
Strings of insight into Post 1319, and
Upon awakening, this morning, intuition compelled my conscious mind to plug in those thoughts in hopes of sharing them with you

BTW: My computer update has, thankfully
'Remembered' how to transfer photos to my blog
So once I have time to do that very thing
You'll see a pictorial of heartfelt dreams, which have, magically
(Patiently) transformed into joyful realities, over time

1319 TWO VALUES, WHICH PROVE INDIVISIBLE

Experience has taught me why carving a truly existential path toward inner peace (cautiously rather than rebelliously) is not an easy feat:  Whereas frustration levels rise as naturally as is true of fear, here is why patience requires tons of mental training.  Insight into deeper truth suggests that frustration and patience are opposites, just as is true of fear and courage.

Experience has taught me that apprehensive attitudes, which are defensively innate, are negatively focused while courage (to be true to one's innermost self) must be consciously cultivated by developing the ability to redirect negativity toward attitudes based in an inquisitive sense of positive focus, and resultant of this step by step process, whereby negatively charged energy is consciously identified and transformed into positively charged energy, eventually, inner strengths, such as patience, courage and positive focus tap into your sixth sense, where intuitive trains of thought shine spotlights on insight, thereby highlighting deeper truths to which your fear based mindsets had been blind.

As deeper truths simplify emotional complexity (clearing your mind of mental confusion, which exacerbates apprehension), your new found conscious sense of mental clarity stimulates a mindful sense of readiness to take a leap of faith away from the beaten track in favor of choosing to carve a path, which is based in such a deep sense of self trust as to feel so adventurously focused (rather than apprehensively focused) as to truly be your very own. (WHEW!)

Experience has taught me that apprehension's persistent resistance to diving toward deeper truth drives the conscious mind to cycle in maddening circles, which is why (in the absence of insight) inner conflict remains restlessly unresolved.

Experience has taught me to seek insight into pinpointing a heartfelt value that seems to be clashing with another, and thus, in the absence of insight into deeper truth, confusion fuels inner conflict, which, upon tearing into my mind, duels itself, relentlessly, to death.  Each time a heartfelt value seems to duel with another, my spirit languishes at the gravesite of joy, which could have been shared with a loved one had my conscious mind learned to grow attentively tuned into intuition, questing toward strings of insight to which conventional thought patterns remain blind.  (Just as apprehensive attitudes are innate, so is the brain's potential to tune into intuitive thought, and once your brain is attuned to tapping into deeper truth, clarity suggests that much that you were taught to fear is ready to change for the better.  Needless to say, tons of patience must be mustered, because this step by step process of mental metamorphosis proves as great a feat as leaping from 1+1=2 to x+y=z )

Though often times, 'be true to others' seems to oppose 'be true to yourself', insight into deeper truth suggests that these values are actually indivisible ... More about simplifying that mental complexity later, because intuitive thought directed most of today's writing time toward editing mental complexity out of yesterday's post, which is why need for patience must be mustered, again.

BTW:  While insight was shining its spotlight of deeper truth upon the pair of values named above, another value came to mind, which, when misinterpreted, exacerbates inner conflict:  Do un to others as you would have others do un to you.  More about that revelation, later, too.

Thank goodness, at this stage of life, my conscious mind has lots of time to listen attentively when intuition feels need to talk my ear off until a string of insights, simplifying a state of mental complexity concerning dueling values, emerges.  Believe me ... Straightening out apprehension that ties my intelligence into tight knots of negatively charged tension is far from easy.  I mean, the opposite of tension is relaxation, and that's where self trust comes in, because tension can not tap into intuitive trains of thought.  As self trust deepens, my thought processes do, too.

Thank goodness, a lifetime of well practiced listening skills offers my sense of clarity second chances to work through inner conflicts in such a logical manner as to free my think tank of mental confusion,
 based in emotional complexity) which, stressing me out, had blocked my sense of courage from carving a path, where positive focus musters the patience to create one joyful change for the better after another, and what could feel more spiritually rejuvenating than partnering intuitive thought with a conscious awareness of my brain's ability to transform a lifetime of heartfelt dreams into a series of realities, step by step!
WHEW!

1318 CAN YOU NAME TWO VALUES, WHICH RISING ABOVE ALL OTHERS, SEEM TO CRASH HEAD ON?

In times past, when my two most heartfelt values clashed, overlong
My intelligence felt so painfully conflicted as to have
Confounded my conscious mind's sense of logic

When my conscious mind felt conflicted, causing
My sense of logic to feel confounded
My spirit, carrying such heavy weights
Failed to thrive for this reason:
I, who had been schooled in the importance of choices
Had mistakenly believed that the only way to
Regain inner peace was to choose
One value over the other, and not until
I had reason to place my faith in intuitive thought giving
Birth to insight, which sheds light on deeper truth (to which
My conscious mind had been blind), did
My decision-making process learn to
Muster the patience necessary to simplify
Emotional complexity, which in the absence of clarity
Had torn my mind in two

Today, my faith in intuitive thought musters
Such a high level of patience as to calm frustration until
The emergence of one insight igniting another opens my eyes to
Deeper truth, which expands a narrow mindset, which had been
Taught to accept black or white so that in the absence of
Intuitive thought, communicating deeper truth to which
My conscious sense of awareness had been blind my ense of
Right vs wrong could not re-adjust until such time as
My intelligence began to redirect the course of my path to
Make conscious gains in personal growth, which
Surprised no one as much as me, and if you asked how
That change for the better happened for me, I'd reply ...
I'm not yet clear about that, but I believe that once
My sense of readiness releases the story telling portion of
My mind, intuitive thought will tap into insight, which will
Shine a spotlight on the answer to that question, so
Once again, patience must be yours and mine

If at this point in time you ask:
Annie, how does insight help you to strengthen your ability to
Simplify emotional complexity, I'd call upon intuitive thought to reply:
Time and again, life's darkest hardships have offered
My intelligence reason to call forth creativity, thus
Brightening days, darkened by excruciating levels of pain
(both emotional and physical) by designing a technicolored
Inner life, which, over these past two decades, has come to feel
So natural that as a result of having identified my need to tolerate
Elevated levels of pain without casting undeserved guilt on anyone else
My spirit's need to thrive (rather than survive) was preserved, and
Now that I stop to think about it, I can see how, during those deeply
Troubling times, hindsight offered me the foresight to make that
Intuitive decision:  You see, subconsciously, I remembered my
Grandma, who could not tolerate her pain,  casting
Undeserved guilt onto my grieving mother after Janet's tragic death, and
Thus is the human brain amazing when the sum of its interactive parts
Work together before our conscious minds have even learned to
Embrace this reality:
Once the human brain has become well-practiced at functioning as
A well-balanced whole, you and I grow to feel fully capable of
Conceiving of plans that draw from the best of two worlds, suggesting
That two heads are better than one as long as both minds
Prove so inquisitive, concerning tapping into a wide variety of
Mental powers as to carve out a path of personal growth where
Two individuals can freely experience an existential awakening that catalyzes
Like minds to reach beyond conventional thought patterns in order to
Create a safe haven where soul mates can contemplate their growing sense of
Mindfulness until eventually, both individuals, who take turns encouraging
Each other's mental processes to simplify emotional confusion, evolve
To embrace an expanded view of this path of their own creation, which offers
Their interconnected sense of leadership the ability to absorb
Srings of insights that enhance their ability to resolve conflicts, which
Had previously seemed unsolvable to both

If you ask, Annie, how do you know this path exists?  I'd reply:
As an instructor of family communications
I've actually led countless participants to open their minds to
Believe that sparks of insight await discovery within
The intuitive portion of their minds
Then, I'd add: Once insight into your brain's innate potential to
Carve an existential path (without leaving any loved one behind)
Brightens your conscious mind, your readiness to
Tap into intuitive thought will ignite strings of insight, and once
Insights into deeper truths start popping like popcorn your
Sense of personal growth will be at a standstill no more
And once the varied parts of your brain have been
Stimulated to react to solution-seeking, as a well balanced whole
You, too, can expect to keep your sights focused on
Carving a path where patience, positive focus and
A growing sense of intuitive clarity resolve
Classic conflicts, resulting in
Your spirit experiencing sheer delight

And now, having summarized all of that, I wonder if
Your memory can name the pair of values, which
Need to thrive, side by side, before
Your spirit's comfort zone can cast off
The heavy mental weight of undeserved guilt
(Carried forth since childhood) thus
Freeing your adult thought processor to function with
Such a sense of wholesome pleasure, concerning
Your future, as to sweep a self defeating sense of
Negatively focused defensiveness away, opening mind space to
Create a change for the better, concerning values, which
Had seemed to clash when you were a guilt-ridden child whose
Sense of personal safety could not possibly have made sense of
The emotional madness caused by over-reactive adults

As for now, Steven and Ravi are due, momentarily, to
Grace my heart with their precious presence, so
Here is why I'll leave your think tank to contemplate
The answer to the lengthy question asked above:
Once your existential quest adjusts your life's path toward
Reconciling this mysterious pair of values, your mind will
Experience such mental relief from daily stress as to
Offer your restless spirit sound reason to relax, and
Once mind and spirit are on the same page, we sleep so
Peacefully throughout each night as to
Find your truest self and mine awakening, each
Morning, feeling fully alive and eager to reach out for each other ...

PS ... Need a hint to encourage your memory bank to
Reveal this pair of values to your conscious mind?
This is not the first post penned concerning
Our need to expand the narrowness of the mindset that
Makes us feel like this pair of values crash head on until
Our brain patterns brighten to insight so naturally as to
Highlight and absorb one deeper truth after another until
Clarity stimulates readiness to declare that two heads, working
Heartfully together to create change for the better, are better than one ...

1317 INTELLIGENCE SUGGESTS THAT GENEROSITY PARTNERS UP WITH ...

Just want to make one thing clear about generosity of spirit, which defines unconditional love:
The human spirit, energized by hope and nothing but hope, can, eventually, run itself, blindly, into the ground, again and again, unless your unmet needs (crashing into undeserved guilt carried forth subconsciously), have reason to signal your intelligence to quest toward personal growth in self awareness, thus providing your personal sense of freedom with clarity, concerning inner strengths that free your mind to expand your comfort zone to embrace choices which, in the absence of insight into deeper truth, had once felt forbidden.  And though this quest may feel arduous, the pain of unmet needs crashing through (rather than into) your own defensive wall is well worth the gain of personal strength, which, over time, frees your intelligence to specify which social convention has been pinning your innermost (intuitive) self to the mat, over long.  And once intuitive thought feels free to brighten your intelligence by spotlighting insight into deeper truth, your sense of clarity, concerning energy expended while suppressing your unmet needs, expands your comfort zone so naturally as to open your mind to embracing choices, which the narrow confines of societal restriction had bamboozled you to believe were forbidden fruit.   And once your intelligence calls upon creativity to devise a plan that clears your mind of emotional complexity, your sense of joy will fuel your spirit to feel so reenergized as to clearly revive your lost sense of youth, no matter your age.  And thus do I employ my intelligence to enhance my sense of positive focus in order to strengthen my connection to generosity of spirit most especially at those times when emotional reaactiveness wants to tear off another person's head.

As I've experienced stretching denial so far as to have blindly stumbled into a black hole, twice, I've vowed to focus my intelligence upon my spirit's need to feel fed, no matter how much my heart longs to connect, generously, with someone I love ...

So, here comes the insight that today's train of intuitive thought has been directing my intelligence to clarify, not just for you but for my conscious self, as well:

Loving unconditionally does not suggest that we give so much while asking for so little that the recipient takes our heartfelt spirit of generosity so for granted as to expect more of the same until the source of our energy feels sucked so dry of fuel as to stumble blindly into a bottomless, black hole, where the dark side waits to swallow up whatever little is left of our inner strengths.  You see, once an utterly exhausted spirit has been caught within the grip of the dark side, the very last drop of our positive focus falls through a trap door, where it remains locked away from the bright light of clarity until a confounding sense of exhaustion feels rested enough for the resilient nature of intuitive thought to revive, and each time intuition taps into insight, deeper truth reveals an unmet need, which had been repressed behind a wall of denial ...

As the depth of my belief in NGU has led my spirit to stumble, blindly, into the dark side of mental confusion, twice, my intelligence has learned to watch for exhaustion's trap door with a vigilance, born of experience, and with each conscious step I've taken along this path of personal growth, my conscious mind becomes ever more sensitive to identifying those times when generosity is beckoning my spirit to stretch so far as to serve the needs of another while denying the existence of my own.

Now that this holiday season is nearing the new year, I can see why intuitive thought felt compelled to imprint this summary of my most recent growth spurt as deeply into the conscious portion of my mind as possible in hopes of insuring that this next insight has been thoroughly absorbed:  My newfound sense of clarity is charged to apprise my conscious mind of those times when my spirit of generosity, which knows no bounds, is, once again, pushing my energy source beyond its ability to replenish itself by attending to (rather than denying) my needs, and to this end have I learned to seek a quiet, private, safe haven, where intuitive thought feels free to brainstorm until creativity contemplates a plan, based in common sense, which simplifies whatever had, at first, felt overwhelmingly complex.  And as this mindful approach considers needs all around, inclusive of mine, your friend, Annie, has freed my intelligence of social convention, which misguidedly dictates that good people consider the needs of others by denying their own.  And now that I've come to understand why courage must be mustered before we can truly think clearly for ourselves, I feel thankful for believing that intuitive thought would guide me from one string of insights to the next until my conscious mind felt so bright as to know my traits from the inside out, and as knowledge is self empowerment, I've begun to respect my needs without feeling selfish, and now that my sense of generosity falls in line with common sense, guess whose spirit is truly enjoying each day feeling naturally free of every heavy drop of undeserved guilt, at last!

Now that my brain has grown to its present level of emotional maturity, suggesting that the sum of its parts have learned to work as a well-balancd whole, I no longer worry that inner conflict will undermine my spirit's need to thrive by stretching my energy source so far as to stumble into yet another black hole, and in this way does personal growth prove vital to insuring that my youthful vitality does not exhaust, most especially as I age.

Oh BTW ... Today's post does not suggest that, by focusing on self awareness, the depth of my love for others dims, weakens or withers in any way ... All I'm saying is that my sense of intelligence has clearly been empowered by injecting generosity of spirit with self respect, thus insuring that my path does not circle blindly toward the dark side, where my conscious mind feels so confounded as to stumble into that bottomless pit, ever again.  In short, I can now hold my intelligence accountable for opening my eyes to those whose minds appear ready to receive the gift of my love and friendship, as wholeheartedly (rather than fearfully) as I am ready to receive theirs.  As to others, who prove unready?  That's where patience (buoyed by generosity) comes in.  Why that change?

Experience has taught me that as we age, the vibrancy of the human spirit depends upon generosity of spirit holding hands with self respect and patience, both of which rely on strong shots of common sense.

When next we meet, I'll describe the holiday surprise, planned to offer three hearts so much unexpected delight  as to have caused tears of happiness to spring from their eyes ... and mine ...

1316 MERRY CHRISMACHAH FROM MY HEART TO YOURS

Like most parents, we encouraged our sons to marry within our faith
We practiced what we taught by assuming roles of religious leadership
When public schools failed to keep up with urban sprawl
Causing our neighborhood school to go on split session until
Voters approved funding for new schools to be built
We shocked our extended families by choosing to send
Our sons to religious day school for this reason:
Though several secular private schools had been recommended
None visited had offered the joyous learning environment that proved true of
This particular school, and having been a teacher of children, myself
The creative center of my brain took note of the fact that
This establishment of learning had mirrored
The high spirited, motivational techniques, which
Had been my own, suggesting why this specific school offered
My spirit reason to smile as intuitive thought sensed
That the expansion of my decision-making process
Had grown mindful of offering our sons experiences so enriching as to
Have provided the independent nature of their spirits with reason to
Smile and thrive, both at home and in school

As Will and I grew to consciously model our values
Our children adopted an open minded sense of respect for
A wide variety of choices, suggesting why each one
Had freely, naturally, and eagerly extended
A heartfelt welcome to a United Nations of friends into our home, and
Throughout all of those busy-till-midnight, child-rearing years
This next fact escaped out attention until
Sons began dating in high school:
Throughout their boyhood, while each was developing into
A clear thinking, independent young man, two of our family's
Most vital values (penned within this post)
Began to clash head on ... And when parents are blind to
The fact that two of their most vital values are crashing, head on
Mental confusion, naturally results
And though I have much more to say on this subject
Today's not the day to pull the sincerity of this train of thought into
The station, because, just as Marie, Tony and Ray celebrated
Eight days of Chanukah with Barry, it's our turn to
Naturally, joyously, generously and with all sincerity enjoy
The spirit of Christmas with three precious individuals, each of
Whom has won a place called home within the most nurturing part of
Our hearts, where a loving sense of mutual respect, which comes with
Maturation, lasts forever and ever ...
And maybe even longer than that ...

1315 THE MELTING POT

Though our nation has been called a melting pot
The truth of the matter is this:
From its very inception,The USA has been
Peopled by nationalities and ethnic groups, who, having sought
Asylum from tyranny, settled into poverty stricken neighborhoods
Only to find their unfulfilled expectations crashing into
So many devastating disappointments as to have
Dashed their dreams of bettering their lives to smithereens, and
When the human spirit clashes with harsh reality, repeatedly
Parents of children, who go to bed hungry, experience
Hopeful expectations slide into disillusionment, which
Over time, transitions from frustration to anger to rage, which
Released in the form of negatively charged energy, zings
Back and forth, between groups of hard scrabbling immigrants
Who, competing to climb out of poverty
Rub each other's hot spots so raw as to increase
Each other's fear of failure, suggesting why
Our nation, which has been boiling with
Resentment for more than two hundred years, is
Still developing into a melting pot, and
Upon glancing back over the time line
We can clearly understand why negatively charged energy
Will continue to wrestle common sense to the mat as long as
The establishment continues to insult the intelligence of
Each immigrant group so prejudiciously as to feed
Newcomers reason to feel too disillusioned, rageful and
Competitive to grow attentive to our national need to
Unite and take note of each other's strengths, graciously. ...

On the other hand, change for the better is in the air
And here is how I know that to be a realistic expectation:
Increasingly, numbers of sons and daughters, hailing from
Different cultures, continue to be bitten by the love bug
(Think West Side Story) and due to their coupling
Adorable grandchildren, born of these unlikely unions
Prove to be the common denominator that brings prejudicial
Grandparents to their senses, at last, and each time
The birth of an innocent child connects the hearts of
Warring generations, we become ever more deeply aware of
The ways in which the power of love naturally
Rejuvenates the human spirit, which
Feeling re-energized, draws forth a host of
Inner strengths that prove necessary to
Defeat the dark side from swallowing everyone, whole
And so before the dark side can bamboozle
Your sense of positive focus into feeling
Sucked so deeply into the black hole of disillusionment
Please keep your intelligence tuned into my blog in hopes of
Absorbing insight into common sense, which
Guided me away from empowering unprocessed guilt to
Repress my unmet needs ...

Each time THE FORCE of LOVE
(flowing free of fear of failure) succeeds in defeating
Negatively charged energy, zinging, thoughtlessly, back and forth
A closed mindset opens to absorb these next two facts more
Deeply than ever before:
People are people (with strengths and vulnerabilities) wherever we go
And ... People who love people, freely, are the happiest people of all

As historically, the pursuit of happiness beckons to
Both genders of all ages throughout our war torn world
I hope to educate as many minds as possible by
Enticing my readership to hunger for more information about
Our need to deepen our understanding of mutual respect, and thus
Do I encourage you, from time to time, to help me to
Expand this grassroots movement, which enhances
Change for the better by challenging oneself to
Declare war on fear based attitudes, which, when unidentified
Block our narrow mindsets from absorbing
Two facts, penned above with this caveat:
People are people wherever we go; however
People who learn to treat the needs all of the people we love with
A deepening sense of respect are the happiest people of all
And having penned those insights, concerning the inclusion
Of our own needs, more than once ...
Enough is enough, till the sun comes out, tomorrow
