An open mind, an open heart and a deep abiding devotion to procrastination. Words to live by. Wonderful poem!

Ah, it’s about the hindsight, isn’t it? About remembering the easy and filming the not so easy. Great words and thoughts!

“Confidence has come,
risks have been
devalued
or reevaluated
and knowledge
has come:
sometimes in dribs
others in drabs”

I pondered over it…

i have no concept of your acceptance of life,, as it chose to offer itself to you… what is it in some of us that causes us to reject ease and acceptance in favor of chaos and war?????? i hope some day to understand….

My heart has remained open
instincts have merely been honed
procrastination has remained steadfast
the child in me has remained
to share space with the adult that has
always been inside

This is beautifully put. An insightful piece.

the child in me has remained
to share space with the adult that has
always been inside -

Wonderful and evocative line turning the usual child within inside out. I think I like this point of view better.
