Story Pin-bilde

Where defeat must be chewed in several rounds swallowed with yesterday's raindrops Where truth blinds your vision awakened the echo of anger demons lurking thunder rolls Where evil dwells haunts the brain in songless praise broken rib red swirl spirals Where the heart beats altar of the soul heavenly peace subdued the breeze's shy caress embers of the sun

Anne-Lise, I think you indicate with this that maintaining a healthy sense of self is not that easy! You add a new meaning to what it means to be under the weather. A lot of complex operations occur in our brains. Really something isn't it? Smiles!!

Life is never all success. We have to meet with defeat. Some will have to confront it several times in a life span. Instead of growing bitter, we have to endure defeat and persevere for success. Great poem dear Anne. Love and hugs.

No one likes defeat, but we have to carry on. We may have not won the battle but we can still win the war. Tom
