Dora...Maybe I have no right to speak into fathomless well of your comfortless chafe..I hope that a man of your obvious endowments can hear through the corruption chewing it's way through your souls epidermis (i know all about that)those times in your life when you've rallied yourself..whatever fatih you've pinned yoru life to in the past, even if it was the power of your own ego/soul..you've got way to much to offer..to share..you mean so much to the world..the untouched potentialities for conquest and gentle unconditional, unmanipulative humility. I want you to consider something, consider making an argument to your own soul for your life. Everyday! I want you to consider that the things we say to ourselves about ourselves shape and poison our brain chemistry. We can bring a spirit back to life, we can injest spiritual anti-virals, anti-pschotics vevery day every hour every moment into our beings. The things, the truth we tell ourselves about our circumstances and about us. It's the only way we can learn to stand being in the same skin with ourselves. Consider something else; that there is a Source, whatever you want to call it that sees you unblemished, unstained and loves you with an eternal, limitless adoration. I don't have a superioir moral mast, or compass or anchor. In truth my weaknesses are manifold, but everytime I let myself be Loved by that thing beyond myself what ever you choose to call It, Her, Him..I am made radiant. Whenever I challenge myself not to swallow some of the things I keep saying to myself, or infer from others. There is a truth another truth beyond what we have become conditioned to impose upon our circumstances and ourselves. We can shape it and refine it every day, every moment just as fiercely, and reflexively as we've learned to smear ourselves with deprecatory and harsh judgements. I believe, this, I know this, inspite of all the sad sack songs I've sung here. Can't go into why or hwo right now..as U-24 says, i've got some major secrets. But I know about beauty and self-love being shaped insdide the crysalis of desolation, pain and despair, failure, ineptitude, emotional autism, self-centerdness...you are More than what you say to yourself. You can MAKE yourself MORE than what the world wags itself about you..(awkward construction)
If I have offended you, than I ask your forgiveness, I apologize for my offense, for any injury or irritation my words, my concern may cause..but I sya them out of empathy, an inescapable empathy for someone who I feel is pretty special.
peace my brother
