dear friend,
unleash the tears, and fears and you may find, in sharing the fullness of experience there is nothing to hide ...
~ Kate

Love is precious and her tears are not in vain.

Aloha Tori

We have many wants, very few needs. Our needs are always taken care of. Be kind and gentle to yourself for this too will pass. Love is not unrequited. love patty

Incredible. Thanks for sharing oneness.

Love, char

i think at some point we will have cried enough. and have some sort of an ahha moment, lets hope.

I feel your pain, and have wondered if there really is someone that cries as much as I, I like to think that someday I wont even remember any of this suffering.

I love you, if that helps : )

Hi Tori, I came from across the pond and did the acting bit as well, it seemed though my destiny was information technology.

Sounds like you have a fine mind and average good looks, so I wonder if it has something to do with attitude?

Never know you could create a your self a role in Infinite Play the Movie, or how are you with interviewing and getting people to reveal and open up?

As for soul mates I think we most often have two half people coming together to make a whole person and they are dependant on each other to create the illusion of whole being. I think it would be better to become a whole person and then find another whole person so that together you make a Double, much more powerful a relationship I would think. Perhaps it is more about finding the right Playmates rather than an exclusive soul mate.

I am sure it will all turn out perfectly and the ride is nicer if one can manage to not be attached to outcome and go with the flow.

I have been back on tracks for a while
On many streets names
Many people languages

Here the noise is so intense
Echoes have no chance to come back
Am I central-point of this city?

Well, There is a place where I loose myself deeper
You have the space and time to be outside days and nights quick-manifestations

This place of earth and water is airing
Spreading messengers of other worlds, should I say
Even if the world is down town, even so

I am talking and analyzing
Walking on water freezing in flakes
Everything would be fine
Without this crispy-sound under my feet

This place of white is so amazing
There is always a feeling of a new
Non-habituation of change

A dot-pain in my heart, physical and talking
Like strong fire-jam in this fine-highways of thoughts
Should I say of essence?

A wind changing
Something sliding and flashing
Was getting my attention in this sky

A feeling of beauty, cold and tears
Even if I am used to them
My present-thought was to avoid them completely

An echo, the walk ending
A form-halt, too difficult for a men alone-singing
Now facing the snow, on knees...

Well, I wasn't going to cry but Jean's poem made my heart swell. Thanks :-)

Love, Char

Hi

Why does everyone assume this is a Love poem?

Soul-mate energy can signify a unity of purpose rather than romantic union. A similarity of intent in two people can represent as strong an attraction as any other.

In this particular case, he may well be the "Will" to my "Grace" - Yes I do believe "Will & Grace" is a true story! I also believe in the Lone Gunman theory, but I digress.

Right now I could use a friend like Will. Thanks so much for reading

Love.........
Tori

Well, Tori, I certainly didn't mean romantic love, and I was nervous of most other's seeming assumptions. There were your previous posts for context........

"Torch Song" by Anna R.

It should be easy by now,
life in a trite torch song,
fogging up some unknown
someone’s reading glasses,

See, the trouble with truth is,
I am condemned in it, especially
at 5:00 in the morning
and I can’t carry a tune to save my
mind or my soul
the irony of it a white flag
waving in the ocean of love songs
I am drowning in,

besides,
the bullshit meter is running on
the Yellow Cab
on my way to another hell realm,

how can I sing for my supper
when hungry ghosts are devouring
any footnotes I have left? torn sheets
of poems I have scraped from the
bottom of the pit

how can I read Bukowski and Rumi
in the same breath
and shed different tears?

When I really want to do something and I have doubts about it and cannot decide whether it is right for me to act, I always ask myself the question- will someone get hurt from my actions? In my mind, nothing in this world can be worth hurting someone else and breaking their heart. I am willing to be hurt and bear the consequences of what I do. But if someone innocent is also hurt, if someone else has to bear the burden, I will not do it. If I make myself suffer, than I will be stronger and wiser to not repeat my mistakes in the future. If I make someone else suffer to make myself happy, than I have acted selfishly, I have caused someone to lose some trust in humanity. Similarly, if my suffering will lessen the suffering of someone else, it will be an action well taken. I believe this is the right way of thinking when making decisions- when choosing between acting or not acting.

Where is Dear Rumi? Irvine where? I'll tell you where, growing inside you now, as he is in me! tiggr too, what do ya thinka that? Amma is in town tonight going to get a hug from her, the ceremony of the mother, looking forward to that.

Good Day.
