Unchanged

I have never changed
  resisting all the dress codes, procedures and protocols.
Despite the efforts of so many authorities over me, 
 it was I who allowed them occasionally to be in charge;
but
  I was still the one who made the final call.

I remained the person that I was meant to be,
  me, myself and I.
Abandoned as a child at only three,
  my self sufficient, independent ways showed resilience
and 
  defiant determination come what may.

I pushed back against them all, defying what they did
 they could not make or break me;
now here I am,
 still present and demanding their respect.
Here I stand.
 Still here, still strong, still I, myself and me,
  unchanged.

Premium Member Respond To Your Present Moment

      Carpe diem ! Enjoy your present moment.
      Stay dynamic to feel life in every limb
      Listen to the sweet tweets of birds at dawn.
      Sense the beauty and fragrance of blossoms.

     Soothing  breeze is blowing ! Seize the day.
     Look at shivering  of shy leaves on touch of wind.
     Reminiscing thrill of your first soft kiss.
     Romance in love to ripple in your heart.

    Honour your today, as gift of your life
    Tomorrow you may think on tomorrow.
    What will , will be : Future not to see.
    Life is short ! Every moment to utilise.

    Not to lose a day, time is precious,
    flowing for ever , not to rewind.
    Life does not run as continuous function 
    but a collection of discrete chapters.

Math **** By the Mossad

y Schrödinger equation, mean-field approaches are commonly developed. 
A detailed derivation can be found in Dalfovo’s article. The generalization of the 
original Bogoliubov description to the physical situation in real experiments is given 
by describing the field operators in the Heisenberg: 
 (2) 
Where y (x,t) is a complex function defined as the expectation value of the field 
operator and its modulus represents the condensate density. 
If we ignored the depletion of the condensate, the time evolution of the condensate 
wave function at temperature T=0 is obtained by taking the ansatz for the field 
operator and using the Heisenberg equation. Then we can get the Gross-Pitaevskii 
equation for the mean field (see some condensed matter physics text books such as by 
Chaikin), 
(3) 
The description of the propagation of noninteracting matter waves in periodic 
potentials is straightforward once one has found the eigenstates and corresponding 
eigenenergies of the system. If we consider a one dimensional sinusoidal periodic 
potential of the form,

Soul Sliding

I was born here
 along the salty waters of the Atlantic
 where wind and rain, ice and snow
 are blown out to the ocean depths.
I watched the sunrise
 when I was still a child
 cooling my toes in the sands on the shore
 warming my face in the sun as it rose on the horizon.

I lived the days in quiet, peaceful solitude
 until you, and then
 it was the two of us
 walking the shoreline eyeing the sea.

We walked and talked of dreams
 full of the plans for living
 and live, we did well those fifty years
 always as one, together.

Tonight, as sunset slides in on the tides
 I walk alone, missing you
 sitting on the driftwood that floated in
 I am called to the edge.

The world and all its troubles slip away
 buffeted by tidal waves and whale song
 I see life goes on
 as the soul rests calm, longing for the sea.

Premium Member URGENCY OF NOW

“Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.” Isaiah 1:18 of the King James Bible

Now is the time to plan…
…with the vision to be 
better than the past.

Now is the moment to prepare…
…since lack of it can cause
missed opportunities of a life time.

Now is the privilege to pray…
…believing that God knows what’s best 
and He makes no mistake. 

Now is the best day to perform…
…along foresight and prudence from the Lord
doing utmost by His grace, inspiring others.

Now is the season to prosper…
…while sowing love and blooming in Christ’s care
sharing progress midst His glory.

Premium Member Truth Functionality Now

Now* is the time to assert God’s truth-verity
Affirming the Lord’s love of mercy’s certainty
Especially His salvation along eternal life’s security.

Now is the time to avoid falsity and deceit
Abiding not in discouragement defeat
Vanquishing unbelief with Scriptures’ heat.

Now is the time to attend to the Lord’s warning 
Heeding to divine admonitions for attitude-refining
Thus, from selfishness and pride … abstaining.

Now is the time to appreciate the Saviour’s grace
Accentuating thanksgiving for His goodness-brace
Worshipping Him sincerely, bereft of guilt’s trace.

Now is the time to apply Bible instructions
According to the Supreme Commander’s exhortations
By His wise guidance toward worthy service-directions.

*2Corinthians 6:2 …Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

Lawns and me

While not a professional,
I take it personal,
When I see lawns not cut short for Christmas,
Down under where snow is absent at Christmas.

This year with only a few days to go til Christmas,
I see no way to redress,
The imbalance between cut, 
And uncut,
Even when the number of machines to get the job done,
Should be be enough to leave no cut  undone.

I have the time and inclination to volunteer to get,
   more than mine done,
But not even my wife sees that as an option,
Or any of my business,
This Christmas.

Though I am on the verge,
Of cutting more than one verge,
To reverse the trend,
Of a Christmas half cut,
Through lack of those prepared to cut the rot and the mustard,
And revert to a standard,
So, Thistles, do not interfere,
With feet being bare,
And this old turkey,
Being Happy,
To see in another year,
With reason to cheer.

if in doubt look to the river for inspiration

If you only shout,
And are full of doubt,
On how to carry on,
When you turn the radio on,
Or no longer turn the tv on,
As fake is the new norm,
Interspersed with news of a new storm.
It may be time to take a walk by the river,
Even if the morning frost makes you shiver.

Find a quiet spot, 
To observe the river's lot,
And you will be left in no doubt,
That peace of mind can be found,
In the comfort of a river that in life abounds,
With the warmth of the rising sun,
Giving it a sparkle that is fun,
And leaving you in no doubt,
Of what life is all about,
As you find energy enough to carry on,
And meet your own series of rapids head on.

Premium Member Life Is Fine

This life is fine
The world is mine
Though I can’t stop
The hands of time

The birds all sing
And flowers bloom
The sun still shines
And chases gloom

And I can view
The sparkling sea
And all the stars
Just dance with me

The clouds, they hide
And I must seek
The creatures small
At me, they peek

The grass is cool
Beneath my feet
The water dew
Now wets my cheek

I have true friends
A family
And hope of an 
Eternity

A place where I
Will not fear death
Where all is sweet
Upon my breath

Where tears will cease
to touch my face
And I am blessed
By Heaven’s Grace

My life is fine
The world is mine
This is my time
To truly shine
