Keep falling back
Into the hole,
That abyss of despondency and despair,
Until the straw breaks the proverbial camel’s back,
This time vino the cause.
Come morning,
You realise ....
Too late.
Life’s changed.
Will never be the same again.
That most important and precious to you
Has gone.....
You are alone once more
To wallow in that ***** ditch to your heart’s content

How to tell when to take words at face value,
Not to misread into things,
Making two plus two equal five,
Not to analyse each word,
Expecting to be tripped up,
An ulterior motive,
A hidden agenda,
Sometimes things are just as they are,
At face value.
And sometimes not.
The trick is to learn when and when not.
Something I'm still learning!

Erroneous thoughts
Catch you unaware,
Appearing in your mind
Suddenly,
From nowhere,
Feeling so real,
Like a great truth,
An inspired idea,
A revelation.
Always remember,
If it’s negative,
Doesn’t make you feel good,
Detrimental to you or another,
It’s an attack,
A ruse,
A plant from the devil.
Begone! say you,
And draw deep on the well of love within you
To overcome,
Time after time after time,
Until that ole brute
Gets bored and moves on
To pastures new.

People judge you based on their own rules of play, on their own experiences, knowledge, fears, values. It’s nothing to do with you. It’s their journey to learn.
And you have yours.
You are who you are. Live authentically, live a good life, love others, love you, be kind, be selfless. Then it doesn’t matter what anyone else says because you are living from your heart. You are living God’s will.

Finally,
Dawn beckons,
The veil of darkness and
Blanket of nightmares recede,
Feathered dawn chorus,
Fresh morning dew,
Sun peering over the horizon,
Shiny rosy sun kissed glow,
Bringing light, hope, joy,
To all who believe.
