Humans Never Learn! History is lost on people who do not read! We all need to learn from our past!! Hate comes from not understanding, not talking to our neighbours, not becoming wise! We all are from the same cast!         I get so tired in my heart, it hurts! reading the absolute **** and crap that is on fb and written onto internet! The pain of antisemitism, hatred of other skin colours, or religion, it is a cancer and again growing, a threat! We all come from one Earth, why can we not live in it together and celebrate? Learn and listen to each other and just live together, be together, great????

Understanding?
standing there with all my kids, and still....There! The one in the grave, still....apart and we share! we talk about a lot of funny, laugh and all get still, because the memories we have, does not... cannot fill! The one place in our hearts, we are going, forward, a step at a time but sometimes, we remember and the path does not rhyme!

Christmas comes around i get to fill my need inside,full! So then i get to engorge and stuff till enough is enough! And wait for next year so i can be ready and not rebuff

Introvert
no not mine, was invited by the older son, seemed almost routine, the rest, brother, mother and father let me fit in, in between!!! They had there ups and downs, they got through it, with each other! I watched and saw them, be there , let no-one fall, be for one another! Then the oldest made a decision to depart, take himself far away He took his life and the home became a house and there was no play! In the four years and four months I see some difference, always pain but the base of it,strong, still stands with cracks and some strain!!!!!!! now the youngest has a career, a girl, a new life growing, a home maybe some hope and he knows that the foundation his parents give will be there for him, help him cope!!!!!!!

ships passing......
this needs to hurt the worlds heart! innocence thrown apart! gone is the belief! caregiver the thief! build a wall, trusting no-one isolation, help they will shun! the question in there eyes! is humanity going to rise!!????? when is it enough, do we stand on the side or do we shut it out, look away, let them be denied!!??? if you can feel, SHOUT OUT, reveal!!!! Stand up and protect don't let this go unchecked!!!!

abused and battered innocence
I need to THANK the people in this world that help, smile, a hand or food that give without thought, stand bright that do things without thinking, they bring miracles, doing what they do being good, there heart shining, a light the heart can be heavy with shadow of yesterday, some strangers pass by not seeing the darkness and pain and then a 'grin' and a wish comes out of nowhere and knowing they are not alone, don't have to explain the souls that are beacons, give hope and happiness because they can, not for possessions or money I hope and wish you all well and your world filled with joy, your plates overflowing with good food and honey and to the people who feel alone and afraid, not enough to eat or nothing to give I can only say, you are not alone, reach out and there is help, you have to reach out to live!!!!!!

happy christmas to all
I wake to a blue sky and sunshine Feeling not tired for once, but fine! Clean my house, playing r+b and soul Having fun, grab the mop on a role! Dancing around here and there swinging along Not lonely being alone singing whatever song Finding a happy place, enjoying this moment, a little spent Fresh and neat and enjoying a quiet time in my home, content!

sunday
I remember you from the past, but I had put it out of the way, far behind! Where it belonged I had thought, got on with my life, out of mind! You didn't know my life and I didn't know You! Suddenly we met again, the put away important few! The ones that know what I was like, a naughty,hurt little girl, also lost mirror images of me, from decades past who will be there whatever the cost! It's not money I am talking about, but the filling up, the feeling you get They are there a couple of 1000 miles away, the other 3 sisters, you are set! I am TRULY grateful I found you again knowing now I am not alone! I can COUNT on my 'sisters' and they on me whatever the zone! We have memories that collide and the most are parallel, hard fought some battles not won! We are strong and can stand alone, but together I know we are a chain unbroken, never done! I am overwhelmed by the kaleidoscope that plays in my head, what I can remember and what I feel! I would love to find one more missing link to make us complete, knowing our strength would be pure steel!

sisters of the soul
I can not seem to stop, I am really trying to hide!!!! The part of me that still hurts, the sensitive side!!!!! That place that I need to protect, I really do have to but when someone comes, with a question for help what do I do??? Can't find the strength to push the one away Am I weak or strong when yes is what I say!!!!!!!!? Maybe I am ready to go back to opening everything also my heart? To the pain, and the pleasure of giving, maybe this is again a new start???
