The Albatross

Often to pass the time on board, the crew
will catch an albatross, one of those big birds
which nonchalantly chaperone a ship
across the bitter fathoms of the sea.

Tied to the deck, this sovereign of space,
as if embarrassed by its clumsiness,
pitiably lets its great white wings
drag at its sides like a pair of unshipped oars.

How weak and awkward, even comical
this traveller but lately so adoit -
one deckhand sticks a pipestem in its beak,
another mocks the cripple that once flew!

The Poet is like this monarch of the clouds
riding the storm above the marksman's range;
exiled on the ground, hooted and jeered,
he cannot walk because of his great wings.

-- Charles Baudelaire

Heart--Shaped Cross

must be the planets, for I am sitting here crying, with so many emitions and hurts and pains, memeories, fragments, flashbacks,'
flashforwards...

I know I will be okay, and it's okay to cry, I think only real Men cry, just so you know...

If you want something you have never had before..you will have to be willing to something you have never done before..
this is Learning and Growing
Pains...

it is better to have Loved, then to have never Loved, and each releationship, is worth it, a part of life, our teachers...

and everything happens for a reason..and everything we do has an action..
Universal Laws and Free Wi11, that this World is governed by...

NEVER, give-up..your life, every Life is a Gift, a Miracle, to take One's life, is the break a law, and you will be in Spiritual School in Heaven for a long time, before going back into the circle, it is not a scary place, a place filled with LOve, but there you will have to face the Truth...and consequences of what you have done...

Better to figure it, here and now...
For NOW is WON...

LOts of LOve and Light going to you...

Magic!

DID you see the SunRise this moring?
it was amazing!

LOve to ALL. ...

I'm sorry you have been feeling bad, too.
I take your words to heart.

You can ignore this, I know you are going through a difficult time...

May I ask, How often you think about taking your Life?

and, well, you know the recreational, meds+prescrition Meds= We don't want to live..
we alter Our Life by smoking or ingesting something to make us feel better..
God made you the way you are, Perfect...

and here to balance your Soul...
which with your writing you do so well..
a gift you need to share with the World...

You Must want to Live and Fulfill your Mission...
we're bringing Peace on Earth...
Immortality, Mastership...

I guess I was worried for something, afterall..

I am going to meditate..send Love and Light and Healing, you may feel it, your Heart will feel like it is on Fire, but a Ggod Fire..

From there, it's up to you..
it always has been...

there is a great future for you
we are all connected, please don't
break that connection

that would set us back, you see,
because we are all connected...

LOts and LOts of LOve. ...

Thank you, lotus, that is very kind of you.

"May I ask, How often you think about taking your Life?"

Every day,
several times a day,
usually for no more than a few seconds,
but, sometimes, for longer.

I experienced a serious depression when i was younger,
and i've been terrified of revisiting it ever since.

I do a good job of not entertaining my demons,
when they come calling.
I know too well where that path leads.
Still, it gets hard sometimes.

There is a powerful undertow of self-pity
that i manage to avoid mostly.
But, lately, I've been slipping.

well.then, I think we need to talk, perhaps you need some inSight, into who you are...
and why you are here...

you are very dear, and there is no need for fear,
this is a past life issue, and you feel the need to sacrifice, but ther was never that need ever, for God, never operated that way...

Forgive yourSelf, and please, email me if you want, lotusheart10@yahoo.ca, that's ca
not .com, and I'm in NH, an hour from you...

you have written things here, that have made my eyes pour out, you are truly gifted by your Soul,
you need to turn you back on the dark, the shadows, whatever else, they are testing you
because you are important...

Will you raise your Sword? Words?

it can be what you want it to be, as is your destiny, your Mission...
Follow your Heart

NO SACRIFICE

that is of the false God...

I won't be up much longer, painting indoors..
big condo project, is kicking my butt...

hey isn't 26taurus in NH

three for tea, perhaps?

Steve, Snap out of it...
and no more experiments, you hear me?

I LOve you, and you are going to Rise above this, just believe it, as I know it!
Big Hug. . .

You are welcome...

I think we should work on a Madhatter
Tea Party..hehe

I think we are all here for a reason, and we should reach out to each other...

we're going to write a book together. . .

and half of it, is already here

we are unraveling the mysteries, all together...

SEE the Light

know you are LOve

and then, well, it's simply Magic!

LOL,
I wish I could share your optimism and enthusiasm,
but they give me hope.
They are true gifts,
and everyone who knows you shares in them.
