up, down, through

hi all DAY 25 I think!

today was a wonderful day that contained a wide range of the gammit of life. up, down, through. and today I am starting off again. nothing is guaranteed. at the end of yesterday I thought i had it. i mean i was in a state of peace with the difficulties that i had been absorbed in during the day at work.

they may be coming back now. well they have a tiny bit. but i'm not going to name them right now. I'm going to live in the solution: In Love.

I wrote a poem recently and would like to share it with you

and

have a wonderfully fully lived day!



Never turn back

(by Ksplash)




After the storm

the peace is so great

like warm winter snow fallin midst the sun.

Then Light fills your heart

with conviction so strong you begin

once again on the path

that leads to your dreams

which are revealed more each day...

as you live in the light




so never turn back to darkness

or things that transport you back

to that place of complete living hell

and when it hurts just keep hanging on

and someday you will be well!

Hi ksplash,
That poem is awesome. Read it to yourself again and again (I will) because its words are true. I know. I'm living it. Thanks for the inspiration and wisdom.
