Love or Fear is a Choice

I will always wonder...
why are you so afraid of sharing your heart
of trusting someone with your secrets and fears
if you only knew, that is how to start
to overcome, and understand, and become aware
of course there is pain in the losses in life
death starts the moment we are born
with every pleasure comes some struggle and strife
there is always some reason to mourn
but we choose how we see and feel about everything
the pain is proof we are alive
that is the joy that can make our hearts sing
to live and not merely survive
life is a roller coaster ride
even if we hide it all inside
the full experience is the greatest gift of all
to those who open themselves wide

so why are you so afraid of sharing yourself
is it because you fear pain?
I wish you could see past the books on your shelf
the true knowledge is in your brain
past the fear, you are there, so aware, learn to share
the secret it knowing you can always start again
this amazing journey called life is a song
you truth is write your own refrain
you can write a fearful struggle or worse
a futile cycle of fear, guilt, and shame
or you can write a beautiful song
and see life as a wonderful game
and
it's not about winning or losing at all
it is about playing the game
peace and happiness is found by those who learn
to just enjoy playing the game

I wish I could give you this simple perspective and take away all fear and shame because I know you can do it for yourself... and never live in fear again.

I wish you would :)

A song for you, m precious little sister, and also for the world. If only everyone could see this and dare to do it, what a wonderful world it could be :)

Recognize me yet? ;)

The Writer On Beauty and Happiness

I once wanted to see myself as a writer, as a person gifted with a skill to put words together to say profound and wondrous things, to amaze readers with thoughts and emotions that would open their minds and free them from the shackles of fears that oppress us from without and from outside in this culture. What I have found in sharing personal letters is that most people personalize the thoughts and feeling in the words to a point where they either fall in love or become defensive, accepting the concepts and therein the person who they do not really know or rejecting them before ever knowing them. This is an attempt to reach beyond that superficial and over-personalized communication, an attempt to find your mind open, objective, and even eager to understand the concepts, thoughts, feelings, and playfulness in these words without judging the writer, without leaping to any assumptions or conclusions that you know me. For how can anyone truly know another without spending time lookin...

To You, To Me, For You

Never give up on love, never give in to fear, always remember your passion for that is what makes you care and that is what you should share for that is why you are here So I'll just keep trying to encourage you to share this way and any other way I can think of, cuz I adopted you and this is what family does, reminds you to be yourself, define yourself, grow yourself, express yourself... Maybe I ask too much of you, but I believe you've got it in your to continue growing your confidence and ability to know and express yourself. I believe you could write a book one day and it would be full of the kind of insight and love that this world needs. Even more important, I believe you need to get it out, to ride through the catharsis that self-expression can be - into a new awareness of just how precious and few people like you are. I'll just keep trying to convince you and hope you believe me... There's always hope (I hope)... there's always hope because I h...

Pretend We Don't Know Why

You were the last one I chose to trust unconditionally. The last one I let in to the space inside of me. You never ventured deep. We did not share our sleep. Or our dreams or our schemes or whatever that means. Yet until someone else comes along to take your place in my heart. I write to you as if you are here because that is your part. In this live I live. Everything I give. Are our dreams ad our schemes of whatever that means... all the trust without lust because that is the unconditional... or bust. You may not know that life is pretend . We forget most of the truths we knew as children at play. You may not know that love never ends. The bond of trust is so far beyond lust that it perpetually mends. All we need to do is trust the truth to come to us in being real and sharing caring unconditionally. That is when we can know the experience of love that is beyond when fear prevents us from seeing... it is so freeing... the purest being... all as one with the energy of the infinite ...
