Three simple words come to mind

As ignorance and hatred have become entwined

Compassion and selflessness have declined

Those three words ….. “ Just be kind”

About Selflessness

I'm old enough now to make new friends,
Let me find an enemy, so as to know true amity.

We've been always sharing selfishness,
But let's make our way towards selflessness.

Water - Overwhelmed - Sapphic Stanza

Peter dove in, waves all upheaving, raging
Sure as blind eyes always are, never doubting
Saving Sandra, fallen in, shouting, blurping,
Sandra saved Peter!

Earth - Depression - Sapphic Stanza

Trenches failing, sagging and crumpling, falling
Dad jumps down in, holding a sheet of plywood
Quick lads scramble out of a filling tombhole…
Who will save Dad, now?

Encrusted Amid Shadow

Autonomy thus selflessness,
Propagating within my independent self,
Drenching my soul with ignorance
Of wisdom, for the outside world
Is not sought…
Identifying myself, as
I encrust myself amid my shadow…

Starving Soul

feed this starving soul
give it sunshine
make it whole
absolve its need
free from greed
mankind's
rotting disease
plant the seed
grow selflessness
into a tree
love it's golden leaves

Unbroken

Ultimately united is the unbroken... undefeated upcoming untouchables. Usual useless oppositions attempt to hinder heroism though spirit secures salvation where selflessness unravels universally. We are everywhere and tomorrow.

Beauty is not what you see typically.

                     One’s words, acts and selflessness

                                      construe it.

Premium Member Only Alone

Listen to poem:
Being alone
is not to be lonely.
Being selfish
is not a denial
of the need
to become self-less.
Selflessness
lies at the heart
of loneliness.
Only alone
do we know
true self.

No, I'm not lonely, 
I'm only alone here 
by myself.

Father

The icon of strength in selflessness
The symbol of divine leadership
The right path paved the guidance
The pillar of wisdom amidst storms 
The protector and provider in seasons
For your exclusive endurance, 
Celebrate you, Dad, for your love
A radiant Father's day Dad!

I Am High

With selflessness endeared
And egoism feared
All human hope is speared.
Except for one.
I am that one.

I am high
On one ounce
Of I.

I am the growth
Of I.
Others are addicted
To we.
They have no selfish
Creed,
But smoke their selfless
Weed.
I am the flower
Of I.

Selflessness

i was thinking about us
I mean
the immense amount of people
like-minded
and very similar desires
and then I asked myself
if what sets us apart
and determines our individual success
it's just the strength of our will
or the end result is achieved
by our level of selflessness

Premium Member Selflessness


                         Easy to feel sad,
                       watching  grief of someone 
                       even whom you dislike .
                      It's harder to be delighted
                      when same guy is happy.
                     Selflessness is humanity.

Self Realization

Without your eyes, there is no Grand Canyon or Redwood
With SELF, there is both selfishness and selflessness
Stop thinking, start meditating: I have taken, what may I give?
Jesus chose to yield His will, to obey Father. In Jesus I rest
The Incarnation, God taking on flesh, mystery of SELFishNESS

Just Imagine

evening blue skies
our hearts surrender 
as love fills our eyes
soul-mates come together
life shimmering 
bright as the Northern star
paths ever clearing
one road to life 
and oh so far
not counted by miles
but by smiles
kindness , selflessness 
service and a wish
for love 
just imagine

Elevator

on an
Elevator of emotion
Extreme highs
Extreme lows
doEsn't help when you've got only
thrEe hours of sleep
undEr your belt
fEelings
Eating me up
ovErthinking again
is it a
comEdy
or a tragEdy
sElfish
sElflessness
cannot tEll
thE difference
Either way
nEed to
calm down
calm down
down
down

Premium Member -Faith In Mankind

Feeling disillusioned with mankind

Disappointed and disgusted

At behaviours l have viewed of late

Leaving me thinking morality is done and dusted


Yesterday, my faith and belief in mankind

Was somewhat restored

By random acts from strangers

Where selflessness, compassion and kindness soared
