Subscription


I subscribe to the  belief
that the world gets better
with each generation,
the universe takes care
of itself and us.

I susbscribe to the notion
that no news is good news.
I take in only as much
daily as I can take, then stop.

I try to remain a neutral
In hostile situations
like politics and religion
where I could do harm
but rarely good.

People may think I don’t
have strong views or aren’t informed
and they would be dead wrong.

My happiness is
dependent on me alone.
I stay at the helm of this
life of mine, pick and choose
what to take in (when I can)
and what to give out.

I especially like your last stanza, Judy. If we can decide what we take in and give out, that can make a difference in our life and the lives of those with whom we interact!

Our peace is essentially a state of mind. Nice one.

Wise, solid, centered. Similar in tone to my little, tiny poem.

I admire this spirit.but sadly cant share such optimistic outlook.my own surrounding, at least, are getting worse more and more.but I wish you keep finding peace in your own way.

I try to live positively, too, Judy, which gets more difficult these days. I do believe giving out positive energy helps, at least a little:)

Yeah, me too. Totally. Why take in more than we can handle? Love your opinion. ;)

If we choose to live a positive life we affect others in a good way. I prefer the positive.

I liked this poem. :-)

I'm extremely inspired with your writing talents as neatly as
with the structure on your weblog. Is that this a paid subject matter or did you modify it yourself?

Either way keep up the excellent quality writing, it is uncommon to see a great weblog like this one these days..

Hey there just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your
post seem to be running off the screen in Safari. I'm not sure if this is a
formatting issue or something to do with internet browser
compatibility but I figured I'd post to let you
know. The layout look great though! Hope you get the problem resolved soon.
Many thanks

A fascinating discussion iis definitely worth comment.
I think that you need to write more on thus subject, it might
not be a taboo matter but generally folks don't speak about such topics.
To the next! Many thanks!!

With havin so much written content do you ever run into
any problems of plagorism or copyright infringement?
My website has a lot of unique content I've either written myself or
outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet
without my authorization. Do you know any methods to help prevent content from being ripped off?
I'd truly appreciate it.
