Sorry I missed this one Alexis, it’s very subtle yet extremely powerful, exactly what is required fo the contest, I’ve read it over several times, and each time brings more meaningfulness, A big contender, best of luck, cheers David

Well put Alexis. Sometimes the heart is confused and needs the counsel of common sense that's when the mind can come into play. Good job. Good luck in the contest. JB

As long as those lungs are working, then the heart is free to welcome numerous debates, Alexis! Sometimes the heart gets me stuck in a corner, so I ask the mind for a helping hand! ~ Warm regards // paul

There are many who dwell on death. We all have to die so let's think on better days. Hugs.
