Within my mind memories live
Ocean waves against the rocks
Endless sea of blue sparkling in the sun
Sail boats slowly drifting by with the breeze
Seagulls in the distance soaring in the air
The cool wind brushing against my skin
Baby nephew near me in a protective embrace
Wiggling about in excitment,talking baby chatter
To a child the world is new and fascinating
An amazing experience to witness
 
Childs laughter floating in the air
One stands out more than the rest
Smile crosses my face at the sweet sound
Peacefulness surrounds me in this moment
There's music even in the swaying of the trees
Melodies all around soothing my soul
Worries and stress seem to just fade away
 
(Still working on this)

not really, unless you make it more complicated then it needs to be.

that is the beginning of wisdom.............
 
now is the time to study, to create a more mature and realistic view of life, with no preconceptions...........
 
you are incredibly lucky, to be in a position to use force of will, to throw off outmoded assumptions and look at the world with the eyes of a babe.........
 
it's an opportunity, not a setback, if you look at it a certain way..........use a mighty effort to see the world as it is, not as you have seen it through the filter of your upbringing & experiences..........not as you want it to be, but as it appears before you, as if for the first time..........
 
apply this principle to your self-evaluation, discard old perceptions and see yourself anew--the devil, and the angel...........see your true self as part of a greater whole, all of its parts being of great value........
 
i can say all this because i reached a find-a-reason-to-live-or-die dead end many years ago, i had nowhere left to hide, nothing left to believe in.............a study of existential philosophy and the basic beliefs of buddhism turned me around, and what i wrote above (which is my mantra, a core creed) i believe saved my life then.......
 
thus allowing me to come along and pester you with my puerile ravings........but i believe every word, and it all worked for me, or i wouldn't have posted this
 
long-winded bastard that i am, i guess i'm not above preaching............and that's all you're gonna get out of me today!

Jen, I think that what you are expressing is the simplest of ways to put it but it's much more complicated than that..Maybe that's just me I dunno but it is the way it is for whatever reason..Sometimes we see things differently but that's okay..I understand what you are saying and I appreciate your words..
 
Jim, THANK YOU..sometimes you say the most insightful things that make so much sense to me..I say that cause so many times it feels like Iam on the outside looking in and I don't get the world and they don't get me..It can be so damn lonely..I do have my moments where I don't feel like an alien when someone gets me..This is one of those moments..It seems so rare but Iam enjoying it while it lasts..Someone else told me the same thing you just did last night but your words, the detail, is really what I needed to hear..What Iam feeling is the begining of change which I think on some level Iam fighting cause it is damn scarey to feel like I have lost all that I ever thought I knew..I feel so confused right now..I don't feel like I trust myself to percieve things the way I use to always..It's so hard..Sometimes I feel like Iam losing my mind..This is one of those times..All I can say for the moment..Thanks again to you both..Hugs..

 Cut within
Slash the enemy
Release the feelings
 
 Tired of the fight
Pull the trigger
End the misery

Empty space
Voice echos
Words lost
Existing alone
 
Misery surrounds
Fears hold back
Paranoia grips
Pain overwhelms
Anxiety drains
 
Withdraw inside
Blades for release
Pain to punish
Starve to change
Control in chaos
Worries set aside
Focus within

"control in chaos"?  or is the chaos in control of you?  ive been down a similar road, and i know now the control was just an illusian, cause i never had it, it had me.  but i know the attraction all the same, and its easy to go back, so easy....

so you finally figured out what i was talking about?..said alittle too much i suppose..i knew you could relate but i didn't want to worry or trigger you which iam sorry if i have..it's a struggle..iam drawn to it..iam constantly talking myself out of it then into it again and again..it's driving me nuts..i can think of the good reasons to do it and the bad ones..iam not still completely over my last problem..every once in a while i slip which i suppose is to be expected though iam doing really good and iam proud of myself on that..there are so many good reasons to do it..i know a part of me knows the control is an illusion but sometimes that illusion is enough and can be easily denied..there are ways iam learning to not go the extreme..gives me a even more of a sense of control..i accomplish all that i need..
