Equilibrium

"Likers gonna like" I heard her say An odd twist on a more familiar saying An optimistic maxim worth relaying Perhaps I ought to pass it on today "Likers gonna like" you heard me say When you had shared your upbeat point of view And wanting to give something back to you I shared this phrase as you went on your way "Likers gonna like" he heard you say As you observed his selfless act of kindness Towards a stranger troubled by their blindness Your simple affirmation to convey "Likers gonna like" she heard him say When he saw her stand up against some wrong A torch of optimism passed along And so it went like that throughout the day Thus equilibrium of energy Like protons and electrons balancing We each need positivity to bring A balance to life's negativity

Amen! I was once very religious, (I have lost that for many reasons), and while most such spirituality has left my grasp, I DO believe in the balance of the Universe - of all things, and the essential elements of that - light/dark, good/evil, life/death, love/indifference ... equilibrium is the one thing I am sure of, other than each moment I am given. (I have a pharmacist's joke about that I'll share sometime). Wonderful write, and going into my faves, (a very limited list, that). Blessings to you, My Friend! :o)

Greg, this is Andrea here responding to what you said to John. You are like me this way, having grown away from religiousity (if that is a word) but I sure do believe in KARMA

It is so hard to find equilibrium at will. But sometimes it happens when letting go. Kind wishes, Kai

There are positive moments that surround us. Many fail to see them. The blessings. If standing on a scale and I am leaning to one side, it would be the lighter side. I can't get totally away from the negative, but I can push myself away from it- the best that I can. ~ Brandy
