Wonderful poem. I noticed the last one you wrote on your poetry thread, NUDGE. I saved it for continual inspiration.
The only thing I disagree is the give me your heart and I'll watch you fall. There is something that has been given to me all my life to know. And
in my own circumstances, whether or not the complications stemmed from past weaknesses, trying to escape very hard family situation that led to
jumping into mistakes quickly and then 5 kids, who are all learning disabled,except the first one who has very high scholastic abilities, though all
are bright, abstract thinkers, due to my thyroid failing 100% and my father said he might have given the genes for the apraxia, because though he was
a science teacher he said he had dyslexia, and I recall having to spell words for him, as I was growing, when he was marking papers, and its a cluster
of neurological disorders that run in families and primarily are evident in the male offspring, more strongly in percentage.
In any case, nonetheless, all 5 are meant to be here but some people can give a lot more energy to the world as doers, and some people give a lot more
in other ways.
But this was a good read:
thriceholy.net... The stoic philosopher, Seneca. Benefits.
Now after discussing in depth what benefits are and how to bestow them, and all this stuff, some of it with personal opinion. But its like this
exchange of gift giving where if you've been graced by aid or help, you would be looking to give back in whatever you can, and he makes it very clear
that due to differing situations, you have different lives and resources.
He said, that for the one who would wish to repay the gifts in full, and searches for ways, but cannot due to circumstances, they are equal to the one
who had better luck in their resources and thus could give.
And not only this, he says, that if they due to their circumstances cannot repay the benefits, but always yearn to give as much as they can, striving
to seek how, to give more, but are overwhelmed, they should not ever hesitate to ask for more when they are need.
It was actually wonderful truth that I had already known inside.
In many ways, I thank Family above for the limits, while at the same time begrudge them and wish to be free and leap into the world and start
accomplishing tasks other than my prayers, meditations, writing, and want to do more. That is my daily search.
But on the other hand, I wouldn't have woken up if the time was not given to me, to do the seeking, and then pour out all I learn online. So sometimes
rain clouds have silver linings, and some negatives can be turned into gifts.
I always feel like I'm waiting for something as well, and don't want to wait, wish to do. Have been shown things that may come to pass, but when you
are strong and comfortable you can do it all yourself. When you are more limited in your standing, you rely on teamwork and whether the others will
step up to the task as well. So its really working on awareness that counts.
I give my hand to that which Family above empowers me to do. In other words, I have faith and trust.
