- Storm Within Me -


   Lava flow
   lament of the lost
   The inky fingers
   Circle in the spider's web
   - pitiful

   Overcome
   I am still learning
   positive self-talk
   The negative energies
   - let them die

Indeed, let the positive energy loose. We have far more control over reality than we think...starts with faith in self...and then the latent power over all our creator has given us. Well said, Anne.

Yes, we should encourage ourselves. Sometimes, we have a bad day, but like they say..get back on the horse.
