How does a smile smell
Or an outwards generous thought?
Nose blocked, I can’t feel
.
[ my response to Pooky’s poetry prompt 14 – Describe a smell. ]
thought
Give Them Away.
It took just one thought
To unblock the creativity
And open up to possibility
“Stop hoarding all those words”
let them be free
give them away
they were never yours to restrain
only passing by
saying Hi,
you’ll see them again
with friends in tow
bringing more inspiration
they will sweep you up
in their writing motivation
Today…..
A great reminder.
Of pain and freedom
Do you avoid the pain?
Would you do almost anything, or perhaps nothing at all
to avoid the fear and the discomfort
Do you work so hard
to keep it at bay
keep it away
to enjoy a painless day
Do you judge yourself
for feeling this way?
Do you live in the pain?
Do you confront the fear
Do you sit in and experience the discomfort
unafraid of it
acknowledging it
as just experience
a way of connecting with who you are
on your way to becoming care-free
and happier?
Do you just let go
of that which hasn’t and doesn’t
make you feel good
Do you just focus
on this moment
now
on what you like and enjoy
Do you just step onto the path
that is where you want to be?
Who are you?
How it was
Those Saturday nights where the whole world is up or out doing something and it’s all you can do to not completely lose it, when you’d cry yourself to sleep except that it feels like the tears have also left you alone.
The darkness that threatens to take over, a certain craziness that seems perfectly normal at the time.
Every day you are changing, in such small ways that you won’t notice it now. But it all adds up over time. The smallest realisation or thought today, will mean something more to you, one day.
The ups and the downs are all the journey you are on. Even though you wouldn’t choose this for yourself, you are moving somewhere better, one thought at a time.
