Excellent

An excellent piece on living rightly each day--that day is today. All the rest is in the past and we can do nothing about it. If amends are needed, make them, otherwise continue forward doing the very best we can. Marilyn

Beas Peas your perceptive reading of my work is so pleasing to me. It gives me goose-bumps that there is you out there who 'gets it'. Many thanks indeed. My appreciation, AnIta.

You nailed this contest. You admit how hard it is to stand Naked in the world proclaiming who you are , as you are. As you say, At what ever cost, the truth is honor and love.

I truly believe what I have written here. It was written from the Heart and from my Knowledge, from the Journey that I myself had to make to this place of understanding and facing my Self. Thank you for your words, thank you for understanding what I have written, Anita

Thanks so much for your specific feedback. I agree about the font and the pic. Pic - no choice. Font - well I use the "I'm 70 and new to computers, and use only what's available here on the site because I don't know how to get anything downloaded etcetera..... excuse/Truth" , explanation.
As to your other comments - I'm so pleased, Thank You Ricky1024. Thanks for your best wishes, always welcome, I believe in that stuff you know.

Excellent

These were powerful words in a powerful stanza:

Let go your regrets,
Surrender your wish that it SHOULD have been different,
And accept that it couldn't.
Then step into THIS moment.
For 'THIS' is all there is -
Nothing more,
Nothing less.

Great!

Apky.

And it's a mighty hard thing to do apky. I thank Gods of all kinds that depression is at last part of our pop language - and 'emotions' and 'feelings' and so on and so forth for men and women alike. There are Healers out there who can help us do just what that stanza says. Help us face the Truth and be Honest with our Selves - then we are ready to Live. Yep, that's all there is man. So simple but so F...... hard to 'get'.
