Quote Prompt 6-Life Is Spectacular

"SUDDENLY YOU'RE RIPPED INTO BEING ALIVE AND LIFE IS PAIN, AND SUFFERING AND LIFE IS HORROR...BUT MY GOD, YOU'RE ALIVE AND LIFE IS SPECTACULAR"


we don't choose life,
         it's automatic.
we don't choose pain,
        it's instilled through
        circumstance.

but we can choose to
live positively through
gratitude.
 
           -optimism
                -ambition
                     -faith...

Quote Prompt I Entry

Ask advice from they of whom it seems
All is as it should be and you risk
Provoking as it were the revelation
That nothing’s ever what it seems to be.

For the wise are not known by their words
Questions are answered with riddles
Befuddling with smug obfuscation
So just do as they do. Or don’t.

Quote Prompt I

I used to think an eye for an eye,
when people didn't talk but bite,
but then I got to thinking more,
do two wrongs make a right for sure,

And when it comes to keeping score,
do holding grudges help me more,
that's why I should forgive and forget,
instead of playing mind game roulette.
