Premium Member Hope is Restless
There is a persistent embrace, a longing and a kissing, a childlike giggling, a free and predictable smile. Life foresees every dawning, foretastes every light ray, foretells every essence, forecasts every ambience. Life proclaims every mountain top, every sultry, tangled jungle, every scorched and waterless desert, every fathomless ocean floor. Dreams are uncharted roadmaps, virtual animated realities, virtual luminous mysteries, virtual unconscious answers. When we are manhandled,...

Premium Member Life is a dream
We are in a simulation wherein we seek liberation in this life by us created so we must suffer as fated, because with memory erased, we drift rudderless as though dazed, although in truth we’re always free, when unshackled from our mind tree, thus silence path of our release, requiring all desires to cease, which is easy yet difficult, if ego-worship be our cult. Let us pause...

Life is a Puzzle
Life is a puzzle, piece by piece, Some truths we see, only through a lace, In our hearts, heaven’s vision do start, See the destiny, then play our part. Dare to see the world anew, Like a child with wonder true. Celebrate the rare, embrace the right, Find divine in common sight. Walk with those who lift your soul, Who guide us to...

Premium Member Life is short, a fleeting breeze you cannot hold in your hands for long
Life is short, a fleeting breeze you cannot hold in your hands for long, and the world is full of questions that remain suspended in the air, unanswered. I want to explore as much as possible, to learn about cultures that clothe the heart, to speak new languages that open doors to unknown universes, to try skills that ignite...

Life is But a Mist
Life is But a Mist (James 4:14) Life is but mist that rises with the dawn, A fleeting breath — it vanishes so fast. We plan and dream, yet soon those dreams are gone, Like shadows fading in the morning’s cast. Tomorrow’s promise hides behind a veil, Uncertain, veiled in whispers yet untold. The past, a story drifting like a sail, The present’s all...
