EMPTY INSIDE?


By Rhaevyn Hart

Do you feel empty inside?
Nothing to offer the world.
No words of wisdom to share.
No pretty pictures to paint.
No music to play.
This isn’t true.
Everyone has something to offer.
Whether it’s good food or fun.
Laughter, or just love. 
We all have something to offer.
Let no one make you feel unimportant.
We all have important roles to play in life.
What is yours?

WE WALK ALONE




We walk alone
through the cold and rain.
We carry our troubles
on our weary backs.
The load gets heavier
each and every year.
We grow older
but not always wiser.
When will life become simpler?
When will the load lighten?
Not in this lifetime.
Maybe in the next.

ABANDONED

Abandoned Library (by katka.havlikova)

Books sitting on shelves.
Abandoned and deserted.
Knowledge lost.
Potential buried.
Frequent visitors.
The wind sneaking in
through curtains.
The sun peeking in.
Animals walking past
the discarded pages.
But no one that can read.
No one who cares.
The wind gives a moan.

DALI AT HIS WEIRD BEST

rainingbluefloyd:

Dalì, Swans Reflecting Elephants. 1937.

No one can create a picture like Dali.
A picture with hidden meanings about his many obsessions.
The more you stare at it, the more you can see.
Disturbing images from Dali’s youth.
Could that be Dali standing off to the left side
by himself, with his hands in his pockets,
staring off into space?
A man who never fit in with his peers or society.
A man who used his demons to create works of art.

HOPE SPRINGS ANEW

nichvlas:

Some days feel dark and stormy
with no hope and no end in sight.
The next day, the sun rises
and shows us its cheerful face.
Our hope is renewed like the new day.
We must remember that the
sun rises each and every morning.
And we must rise with it—with hope
in our hearts for new beginnings.

PERFECT HARMONY

WE CAN CREATE BEAUTY.
WE CAN UNITE FORM AND MOVEMENT
AND ATTAIN PERFECT HARMONY.
WE JUST HAVE TO WANT IT ENOUGH.

THE FOREST
The bird lives in the forest, where he finds food and water.
The forest flourishes from the sun and water.
The creatures of the forest live in harmony with each other.
The food chain determines who will be the hunter and who will be the prey.
Nature has created the perfect template for harmony.
We could use such a template to lead people back onto the right path of sharing and giving, instead of only taking.

PERFECT HARMONY
The two cats nestled together, white around black, depict the harmony of Yin and Yang.
Nature has a way of balancing its creations to achieve the ultimate harmony.
We can learn from nature to surround ourselves with beauty and balance, instead of constant noise, and confusion.
Life doesn&#8217;t have to be filled with pain and unhappiness. We have to search for the right balance in our lives that will bring us greater peace and feelings of accomplishment.

BEAUTY UNFOLDING


BEAUTY UNFOLDING
What is more beautiful than a budding flower? A flower that has reached its full maturity, its petals openly proclaiming its perfection to the world.
Human beings&#8212;at their maturity&#8212;have also reached their full potential. Unfortunately, mature human beings are not appreciated as well as their rose counterparts.
