??Romans? ?12:2? ?KJVAAE?? [2] And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God.

Love all of you regardless, it's not within me to push religion on any, I never liked that myself, God had to transform me, my goal in writing is to reach that place deep within one, that longs for Love to ignite, then it's all in God's hands , I have enough worries of my own, to die daily that Christ might live

I probably don't like all about Christian stereotype all others dislike, it's not about me but God, what was placed within me is to share the Love of God ,

The truth stands within your words. We find ourselves sooner when we can face ourselves, alone

Your Monoku is exquisitely crafted, my friend. It showcases a highly imaginative line that deviates from conventional thoughts.

Sadly true, S O...but very difficult to do with the ever-increasing world population.

Indeed! Such a profound piece, Silent One. To re-connect with the positive compassionate essence of our humanity, to recognize one's heart once again, and feed one's soul, yes creating distance from the negative, brutal elements of humankind with self-imposed solitude is nurturing to our being. A deep soulful expression. Warmest wishes my dear friend.. ~Susan

A one-liner that should make us stop and think S1. Moments of reflection can be of much help. Regards // paul

Really a great poem. There is a lot of brutality in this world--something I do not understand on some level. I recently saw Everything Everywhere all at Once, and the message was to use our smarts to deal with each other with kindness and love. It was very profound really. You sum in up in one line, where the film had to drive us crazy to make the point. You are really a wonderful person in every way that I can see.

Got that right. LOL..Sometimes we do need a rest then we are strengthened and go back out there and fight the fight of good faith. Thanks for sharing this one with us and for dropping by my page. An ambulance just went down the road and I am wondering if anyone was hurt or got killed in a wreck or something else. Sara K

The reintroduction to self is mandatory for a wholeness of human experience, S1. Cool ku! :o)

We need time to reflect. Likewise to step back in the group and see what people are really about. Don’t be in such a hurry to join.

Relate deeply to these words, Silent One. Humans often do such inhumane things, even to those they say they "love." It has taken decades to find some precious peace of mind. (And going "No contact"...) And a willingness to carefully trust, if that is possible. I appreciate your poems. Thought provoking. Inspiring. Thank you! :))

Your "Human" is a powerful Monoku write. Few words with much said. So True... Have a blessed day writing away.........................

Interesting monoku, i feel not very human but i like to keep my distance from humankind, so this monoku hits home for me. And its a very deep one liner that speaks volumes! You do that with your words always, whether long or short. Your words are soul hitting! Pleasure reading you sweet silent one! Sending you light today and always. Keep your distance but not from me cus im not very like humankind, im more like a mermaid.
