Premium Member Rachel's Special Challenges
Rachel’s birth brought early challenges
    Surgery closed a hole in her heart
         Learning disabilities discovered later

 A “special” child, she pursued a regular education
      But she was not regular

CHALLENGES

By Edmund Siejka

He faced a challenge 
That forced him to use all his abilities
But doubt clouded his judgement
Caution gave way to uncertainty.
Needing help
He recalled these words:

1.	Believe in yourself
              Never bend your head

with challenges and never hide 

Our struggles may seem endless

we refuse to be helpless

our hope, unbreakable and priceless 

We'll keep marching ahead 
with courage, tenacity, and stead 
no matter how difficult the thread 
we'll...

Challenges of Parenting
I was barelegged with you in a field this morning.
You couldn't have been a day past five. 
It was I who helped you navigate the long grass,
the dips in the soft, unseen turf,
you who found the ripe blackberries,
spread across your face like war paint.

Or was...

Life's Challenges
I am Amanda sullivan

who needs peace and creativity,

who loves her son unconditionally,

who sees failure, but also positivity and gain,

who hates bullying, and deceitful relationships,

who fears a life alone, devoid of love and friendship,

who dreams of wealth, happiness, and a life by the sea....

Premium Member The Mystery of Destiny
Destiny, oh destiny, why hide thyself from me.
Come out, come out, for all to see.
A life filled with struggle, then at last a surprise.
Why not reveal now how I self-actualize?

Have I no choice of my destination,
How I’ll proceed in my maturation?
How many ways could there...

The Only Topic
The Only Topic 
Every Morning I get up and the very first thing I do,
Is switch on the Teli, to find out the latest Hullabaloo.
Well it might be Carl, Sam or Kochy/Kochie on 7, 9, SBS or the ABC. 
They won`t be talking about murder,...

Perseverance
Success is the reward for hard work;
It’s irrelevant if in school or at work.
Just remain constant and do your best,
There’s no end to the measure of success.

Life has countless ups and downs,
Unsure of the next thing coming around.
Barricades arise on your journey of life,
Reject them...

Premium Member Monolinear
but a collection of slim syllables which became monolinear
to keep the vocabulary from becoming even skinnier

no matter what is written, experienced or elegantly lied
existence flows toward eternity for change will not be denied

trying not to get lost in depth of individual helplessness
prime numbers and beings...

At times, some people in varied situations, always  
thrive on playing to the certain fears of other people. 

Sad to say, it just seems that...
