Sometimes you have to walk a hard path in life to get to where you need to go, although we don't always understand it. This is very well written. Good job.
Take care.
Christelle.

Yes and with humility at our elbow we will find our way through the crowd.

I like your poem about learning life's lessons. The need for struggle to teach us the important things we need to overcome. The picture accentuates the need to relate to humanity and embrace all.

Excellent. You call upon the wisdom found in the bible. What better rock for foundation could there be than Jesus! This is wonderfully written and deserves commendation for it. The world needs more of this type poetry. Thanks again.

Yes, we are living in the age of self centeredness while ironically we don't quite have real self-love - the self-compassionate acceptance of our weaknesses that allows us to actually admit them and work on them. Thank you for this wonderful thought-provoking piece, my friend!

A timely message, my friend, and something we should all think about in a world that has become increasingly more selfish. I like the way you use words to create a pathway to understanding a message that is more meaningful when discovered. Great job,
Rhonda

I enjoyed your comparisons in this piece for a positive shall always have a negative in which we may tell the difference. You are always sustained by your faith. I am always taught by mine.

This is an impressive read and with firm
foundation to add the concrete truth in the
words. We are a fortress when united, but
like ants who haven't a colony. They are a
good example of what can be accomplished as
a unit. Your scriptures were a good addition.

This work has reached the exceptional level

It seems that respect and common courtesy has become unacceptable. Rudeness, mean spirited dialog, and sharp elbows are now the norm. Ir's paraded before us in social media, reality shows, and politicians...it grieves me as a Christian. Thanks for speaking up for the message of our Lord.
