Don’t feel the fall…. by Christine Bialczak

Don’t feel the fall

It is in the darkest hour

that we search for all the facts.

The one time in your life

when it explains all your acts.

We look for the loved ones

who have hurt us in our life.

We hope it is not exposed

to be a husband or a wife.

When truth comes to light

and you can see it all,

remember that you asked for it,

Don’t feel a fall.

Optical illlusions

Would Ram be worshipped, if there was no Ravan? Pandavas exhibited many weaknesses, but were victorious for the cause they fought for- restoration of a woman’ s honor. Ram and Krishna were reincarnations of God – they knew well that the Devil is needed to strengthen belief in God. It takes a deep wisdom to … Continue reading Optical illlusions

In unison

“Once upon a time, these containers used to be full of yummy eats…” Aman flashed a sly smile at his wife, as he started narrating a story to the kids. “And then….” “Mom started going to work,”  chorused the kids in unison. A stern face emerged at the other end of the table. “Tomorrow onwards, … Continue reading In unison

Fleeting

flicker of an eye arched eyebrow hands covering mouths ignoring what I like -concealed hostility     smiling eyes comforting touch supportive acts agreeing nods -silent companionship   fleeting observation unnoticed, lost in the bat of an eyelid I wonder if it happened -enriching moments     tiny units build mindsets deeply entrenched in subconscious … Continue reading Fleeting

In the darkest hour

In the darkest hour …. by Pallavi

Pallavi's avatarCurating Thoughts

It is in the darkest hour

when my insides became my power

resilience and resolute both got tested

I found what my heart’s true quest is

It is in the darkest hour

I began to understand what’s important

what’s real and what’s fake

if I was zombie walking or been consciously awake

It is in the darkest hour…. of laboring

that I wrote and re-wrote my destiny

Out of the Darkness

Out of the darkness …. by Len

Responding to Reena’s prompt # 100 based on above:
https://reinventionsreena.wordpress.com/2019/10/24/reenas-exploration-challenge-110/

It is in the darkest hour that reason dawns, that hour of self doubt and confusion before enlightenment. Intuitively we stumble towards the truth, but become conflicted with the world’s unreasoning hysterical chatter. So we wrestle with our insecurities and try to separate the wheat from the chaff.

The unexamined life is not worth living.

Socrates

I have been wrestling with the merits of the youth movement that seems to be taking the developed world by storm in the last few months. Left leaning political parties are advocating for the voting age to be lowered to sixteen. Students are protesting in the U.S. on gun control due to the horrific shooting at U.S. schools. Students are striking from educational studies to protest lack of climate change action. Five students are suing the Canadian government for the lack of a sufficient…

Flash

I strike gold. The color of the dragon has changed. “Mom, it’s the flashlight from outside, which makes the painting look different.” The little one contributes his two cents. “A blue dragon denotes laziness. A golden one is wise and forgiving.” “Well, then … whom will you forgive?” I like the twinkle in his ten-year … Continue reading Flash

Make space

“I like the idea of constructing something on a grave. It shows the world does not end – someone else will replace you.” “Hmmm… thoughts of recently retired people….   Letz place flowers n leave…” Dad died a day b4 my son was born. The tombstone carries a picture of his grandson. https://katmyrman.com/2019/10/29/twittering-tales-160-29-october-2019/

Dangling

I strive to find the ground I left behind – then wonder if it ever existed. Psychic perceptions have left me dangling between two worlds. belonging – neither here nor there accepted – neither here nor there Can I blame them for not knowing what I do? They are happy in their un-knowing state, while … Continue reading Dangling
