All Aspects of Life Ii

all aspects of life II

all aspects of life can be splashed 
onto the canvas which we alone
dictate
with whatever kind of paintbrushes we choose
we make our mark
in the 
flash of lightening on a spring early evening
a precursor to the storm

the storm itself is nothing to be afraid of
for it is what gives us purpose
it challenges us
allowing us to find ways to deal with our own 
reality 
through making our own decisions
taking 
responsibility through own own actions
owing nothing to any “force” outside us
and
through 
this
greatening our freedoms as humans.
