Very Few Understand Me

I walk through life and reach many Try my best and work hard at things - Offer help wherever I can - Hold on tightly to the gift of gratitude But, even with many friends, truth and actions - Very few understand me - Heidi Sands 10/4/19

...as long as you understand yourself, everything can will be fine, I think (anyway)… I find that the more we are involved with/give to others, the less time is spent concerning ourselves 'with ourselves'. Happy Sunday, Heidi! Warmest wishes, Gershon

Feeling that you are alone, is sad. I do try to understand what people are about, and hope for the insight to make it happen. I will keep trying...

You know, I really wish I could comment as good as some of these other poets. I always feel my comments are inadequate. I am not sure many understand any of us but from what I do understand about you Heidi is you are a strong caring woman who lives in the beauty of life everyday. And you should just keep being you, because you are wonderful.

Heidi, first your poem is deep and raw with honesty. We are all so intricate that it is hard for others to understand all the aspects of us but seems to me that you should just keep doing what you are doing!

Yes, you are right Dear Heart. Thank you very much for your encouraging comment :)

I guess there are a lot of us who feel misunderstood, Heidi. Just keep your positive attitude and accept that it's hard for people to understand you. (Sometimes, I feel like I live within an impenetrable fortress, but it was I who put up the walls.) You provide much wisdom in your poem! Hugs, Carolyn

I will continue to try. Thank you so much Carolyn. I know what putting up walls is like too! Have a nice day :)

I feel poetry helps to best understand one's character and inner beauty and your poetry shines brightly as your sensitivity Heidi. This is lovely! : ) xxoo
