The exciting journey of life

Richard J Edwards 1960 (Ft Belvoir)



As the day begins you wake up with a feeling that things can be inhanced through a open change in your heart and soul. When you adopt a mind set of an observer with no judgement you the actions of others as things that just go on. Now of it is difficult to view these living actions with out the things you were taught growing up to interject. That's OK however look past the surface of these said actions and discover the body language and the possible reasons why this person is acting this way. Dont intervene. You never intervene unless someone is in danger.  I know alot of people come from a flight back ground and not a stay and fight for the innocent victims. I've always been a stay and fight. You have to be very careful on how you approach this if you are going to fight. If the perp has a weapon then what you can do is limited. Me personally will never give up helping the innocent  it is the thing to do under God. OK folks I'm sorry this turned into a tutorial which I did not mean to happen. In closing I would suggest that every person never stop exploring the world and all things in it because every living thing speaks out and when observing you learn so much. Thank you.

P.s. I'm always looking for a platform to enterduse my writings to that can capture someone's attention that can help me publish them any suggestions?

About this poem

Those of U that have read any of my writings can see that my topics usually are linked to life and the different takes on it. I love reviewing my own journey and as well others that I know and M close to as friends and or lived ones. I love to people watch and freely and openly absorbing how people talk and use their bodies in the course of communication. This really works in a different fashion in my heart mind and soul for those 3 things are the essence of our existence. I love the magic in life that materializes when we don't hold on tight with any preconceived notions and we put a loose and bendable opinion on things we see. The elements we view in life has to be harmless non negative and non violent. There is no constructive growth of any kind in negativity. There is however in our world lots of negativity and we witness it everyday. Please take those times and learn what not to do for if we entertain negativity we harm the human spirt. When we allow ourselves to be in life with a open mind and heart the possibilities are endlessly uplifting and magical. You discover a new you and moving forward you always discover how much lighter your heart and soul will feel.
