To me this is “Truth”
REALITY
You are a Precious One to me
If only through my eyes you could see
I know Who You Are from you very core
You’re far more than you credit yourself, and More
I pray in time that you will come to see what I mean
There’s so much about youself that remains unseen
The “old programs” you’ve accumulated from your birth
Have caused hardships, pain, and a void with less mirth
So many paradoxes to sift through with uncertainty
Such courage you had to plan such quagmire in reality
Tasting every part of life with enthusiasm and adventure
“A Hero” to those that love you; always seeking new venture
I know you feel a bit of the puzzle is still apparently missing
Even when you get close to it, you find yourself resisting
It’s the “EGO” keeping you meandering from the quest you seek
The Quest, the Ultimate Goal, will strengthen you, not keep you weak
Self Love is the Secret to a grander, healthier, balanced realm
Investing in self love is reciprocal; will keep you at your helm
Love sometimes means change, prompting fear out of proportion
Fear, “false evidence appearing real”, is a major destructive distortion
Trusting in yourself to move through fear, instead of avoidance
Will prove an adventure itself; quenching “Ego’s” stubborn stance
Empowered with energy that only Love can implicitly impart
You’ll discover enriching experiences to seal upon your heart
Much grander and more powerful than you’ve been willing to discover
When your’re tired enough, you’ll access the Truth and You will recover
A whole new way of approaching life, with clearer eyes and wisdom see
Self Love flowing over and out to others, that they, too, might see The Reality

My soul-felt felicitations to you for visiting my blog. I’d like to thank you for taking the time to comment! You gave your opinion on one of my posts!
Well! I do travel occasionally! When I am not loitering around, I do my usual stuff – that is writing or things like that! I am more comfy to be known as a soul-traveler or soul-searching introvert who loves to travel inside the soul!
Have a great time!
Best Wishes.

Hey Lynn,
How are you girl? I have really missed you. Your phone number didn’t work one day and I’ve been thinking of trying to find you ever since. I did a search for your email and here I am.
Please email me! I’d love to be back in touch with you again. I love you and am praying for the best of everything for you.
I’m in Seattle, WA now.
Love, light and laughter,
