In The Gloaming TW *just in case*
With the tragic loss of the feed and after much debate and discussion. It's been decided to create a new thread. Soul space so to speak. A journal of sorts.
A place where I can dump some of the nonsense that goes on in my head.
While replies are welcome - they aren't necessary.
happy new year Soul friend 💙 *lots of hugs and love* haven't seen you around in a while. Hope you’re okay. 💙 thinking about you.
@LoveMyMoonflowers Thank you Moon Pie 💙 Happy New Year to you too! I hope you're doing alright too
We were all wondering where you went, man...
@slowdecline48 I slipped and fell into the pit of misery
S***. That's all too familiar...to a lot of us on Cups, I think...
@mytwistedsoul I’m going to take a risk and make a bad Mario Kart joke on your thread.
I’m so sorry I threw that banana peel at you Twist! 😮
I’m so glad the little cloud guy brought you back from the pit of misery though! 😇
@PiecesOfWhoeverIWas 😂 So that's what happened! Damn those banana peels! (Shakes fist) 😂
@slowdecline48 These random banana peels just keep showing up out of thin air! 😮
@mytwistedsoul
@LoveMyMoonflowers (looks around suspiciously) watch out Moon Pie we've got random banana peels 😳
Thank you 💙
in still, quiet places
there's a voice
some times it whispers
other times it cries or sings
like waves
that break on ocean shores
shifting all the pieces
all the pieces that are me
the pieces of me, the parts of you
the particles of we
endless shifting of time and space
united in one breath
the beat of their heart echoes mine
a rhythm that moves in every thing living
could this voice that speaks in me
be a code or a key?
for a door that doesn't exist
cautious and unsure....
what do any of us know?
so much... but yet nothing...
if we're honest with ourselves
all these painful memories
the short ones and long-lasting streams
just dust and rust and bits of debris
if i stand at the cliff in my mind
it cries out in fear
"if you jump, you'll d.ie"
these swirling thoughts
like leaves on the wind
dance...and sing
but what happens
if you dive deep within?
face the guardian demons
that hold the souls in chains
by the beliefs, standards, ideals
and other fear games
can we stop for a moment...
rest from all these thoughts
let things "be"...as it is...
falling again
the doubts started crawling in
my wings got twisted
despair and disappointment
there are no answers
mind games...
loneliness and sadness
these constant companions
are so demanding
tired of ourselves,
the constant fighting
illusionary symbols
pretended sharing
if you give, we give
we are more and you are less
defining the rules
only some are useful ...
maybe that's really true
all we believe in
is just passing through
so many stories
all kinds...
we need to let them go...
along with wanting to know
what, where and why
they gave her names
separating her by invisible lines
while…
she is whole and undivided
a soul... ageless
it’s effortless to di.e...knowing
we could be born again
without dying...
each dawn we're born
every night we di.e...
it dissolves any who, what or why
I'm a man...and a boy
a wolf... lamb and a child
clouds and a deep sky...
a pebble in a stream
a wave whispering to a shore
as sun is setting
the gentle breeze caresses skin
senses are resting
calmness...is here
in this space...
I exist
You are truly the most profoundly poetic slice of white bread I've ever seen...
(Okay, I'll see myself out)
@slowdecline48 Thanks 😂
If I said it was cold outside that would be an understatement. It is currently -12 this morning. Which is actually warmer than it was at midnight with the wind chills at -21. Damn polar vortex!
@mytwistedsoul I hear that.
It hasn't been that cold down here in Floridastan but it's cold enough. Right now it's 2°C outside... Yesterday, Pensacola got 7 in. of snow. That is unheard-of here. Some of the natives were freaking out. Am not native myself but I kinda get it...if you've grown up in a place where there's no real winter, then it will be a shock.
Guess we'll have to learn northerner skills now: insulating the plumbing, equipping municipal vehicles with snowplow blades on the front, etc
@slowdecline48 I had seen the south was going to get snow! 7 inches of snow must have been a shock for a few people! Does anyone in Florida even own a snow shovel?
Up til now, no. 😏
I bet a few people bought snow shovels off Amazon since Pensacola & Tallahassee got snowed, though.
@slowdecline48 I bet Amazon had a major influx of snow shovel orders! I did see some videos from there and they had a bridge closed. Georgia sent some equipment to help you all out though didn't they?
@mytwistedsoul Maybe, I dunno...haven't kept up with the news much since that day. Too much to do, or too tired to care.
