Art begins with resistance - at the point where resistance is overcome. No human masterpiece has ever been created without great labor. ~ Andre Gide ~ Art by Olga Klimova ~ Beautiful Motion Giff Effect by sfioramiilcuore

I feel emotionally flat the experience is very stressful No flooding or concentration Acute, which is more persistent Maybe therapy and skills training - some will need it just for safety I crank my headphones up to deafening level - shuts off all sick thoughts The silence gradually becomes unbearable Along the way, I experienced that the parachute did not work satisfactorily If only God could give me a clear sign Saturn's rings exist exclusively of missing aircraft luggage I think everything is predetermined Hope is foolproof I cut the cucumber slices like hearts 25/7/20 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved Isolation Philosophy Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Chantelle Anne Cooke 4th place in the contest

Hope is that one emotion which is so strong that it gives us the courage to face storms, changes and depths in life. I second your thoughts Anne. Congratulations on your win! Much love :)

This one made me smile. Reminds me of something I said once. My mother had told me when I was young to try to FIIINND MYSELF. (Didn't know I was lost) This is a fun read and the pic is so clever. God Bless, JB

Hi Anne-Lise, it is the times, we all seem to have these feelings at some point. As always, Anne-Lise, you share a powerful and honest write for these moments. The hope is that things shall get back to some kind of normal. I still see few people walking by the house, fewer cars also. Another excellent write from your golden pen. Wishing you all the best in the contest. Have a wonderful Tuesday. Love and Hugs....Mike. XX
