Premium Member Humility Road
There is a road travelled by just a few It's a beautiful road, but it's not new Many of us refuse to take this 'high road' It often requires carrying a heavy load Even though it is assessable night and day, This road never gives anyone a freeway We cannot travel this road with pride; And selfishness too, must be set aside On...

CRUELTY
I've been in a city In this city They won't let you grow Even when it's your time to flow They're always against your glow Steadily wanna make you slow Always wanna keep you low. People ride against good Then protect wrongs Feeling stronger By hurting another Laughing and bullying Taking advantage Whosoever is simple and live with humility. The less privilege Their...

Premium Member A LITTLE HUMILITY A LITTLE LAUGHTER
I’m bringing back an old memory because with my internal American flag flying at half-staff I could use a little humility…and I certainly could use a laugh: It was the day a lady…after staring…walked up to me in a store… and said, “You look just like my”….then she stopped to stare some more. As she paused to evaluate every...

BETWEEN THE SKY AND THE SEA
Bubbles of tapioca, buoyed by pride, Celluloid constellations, humble in stride. A peacock’s plume, a heavy balloon in the limitless sky, While the quiet river, beneath, whispers a turquoise sigh. A vessel yearning, adorned with pearls, A cup overflowing, concealed in liquid curls. Virtue manifested - Like a subtle elixir, mellow abides, The mystic aroma entices fields wide. Shades of black, as intrinsic...

Premium Member FAILURE HUMBLES
Failure first Makes you humble. The deeper the sting, The greater the revelation. Release the need To assign someone blame. Accept it as your own To expunge your searing shame. Guilty Pride will mask and hide The truth of your shortcomings. Don’t indulge in its deceitful lie. It shuts the door to self-examination. Revelation is the real and only forgiveness. It provides a second chance for you to...
