If you see things in a different light then it becomes visible.

If I am to dance to the beat of a different drummer ... shouldn't I make sure that I don't appear to have two left feet ?

I love the desert. The people who inhabit it, an old desert rat myself -- and the creatures that survive in such a challenging environment. Not so estranged from kids growing up in poverty on the streets of New York. All elements of creation have more in common than differences. Sorry Gleick, you are wrong.

I am surprised how such a small oval birdbath I keep in my backyard, attracts so many birds of different species. Of course, I do live in a desert. A lesson in there somewhere. Perhaps make a desert of one's heart, put a small bath of new love offered, and see what winged beauty it may attract.

God gave us each a different voice -- all lifted in praise, inspired by love are beautiful.
|
All my writes are personal tries and self revelations. Hoping I am not so different, and maybe what worked/failed for me will benefit others.

I wouldn’t have looked at her twice if she hadn’t smiled at me first. She wasn’t your typical pretty or the other Disney character who is completely a misfit and happy about it. But she had a quality I couldn’t place my finger on and I guess that’s all that made the difference.

What is given needs time to illuminate the world.
Effortlessly, nothing gives birth to a greater truth
and understanding. We are of the same blood but
yet so distant and different. We need to speak and
listen. Reinvent ourselves and connect. Illuminate
this dark world.

The mouth does only speak a universal language if it knows how to tell the difference between speech and silence, right actions and useless ones and does not deal with things it cannot handle.

'If you can't be better, - Be different"

When humanities voice, cries to rejoice...
Then the poet describes, a critical view to different tribes.
|
Respect and fear are different emotions. Respect is a feeling of admiration and esteem towards someone or something, often based on their abilities, qualities, or achievements. It involves recognizing and valuing the worth and autonomy of another person or entity.

Same community, different struggles. Why can't we all look after each other as humans?

Environmental stewardship doesn't demand perfection; it craves our dedication to making a difference, one mindful choice at a time. -Aloo Denish Obiero

It is easy to generalize, for some, it hard to see the difference.

It isn't being different that causes the great divide, it's being the same for sameness leaves no compromise.

" They who still live for this world are in Darkness in the Light of the Dying. But they are Enlightened with the Light of The Living, who,despising the Light of the World, return to the Splendor of the Inward Brightness that they may live in that place where they may see, by feeling it, the True Light, where Light and Life are not different from each other, but where the Light itself is Life also." -St.Gregory

The vast majority of us were raised to believe in some type of a greater good ; whether that being God, or any other faith to follow. Yet it seems the differences would ultimately lead to conflict, where the strength of fellowship would reach out with an overpowering embrace. This consolidation then leads to eventual dilation, where outlying extremes ferment towards a secular brew.

"A little something I observed, and now I know, sometimes small things make all the difference." from the poem "Small Things" by Max Burchett

The poet, the writer ... is sharing their thoughts and feelings with the universe on another level. Revealing their greatest vulnerabilities as some sort of cathartic alm towards understanding and empathy, or there for the grace of God go I. Perhaps a confessional place where they commune with themselves and readers will acknowledge that similar darkness and light within themselves and not feel so different, or alone. This is the way of all writing, whether it is about joy, or despair.

One does not write about a whole lot of different things, subjects, without having done a whole lot of different things, subjects already and those made-up (Imagination, a soullful consort of the aritist) -- a lot I am not particularly prowd of...and a lot I am. It is a spicy mix that salts and peppers poetry of interest. Not a necessity, but far easier to write after one has actually done something.
|
We have managed to get through a lot of challenges. Things may be difficult, but there's still hope.
Memories from 2020:
There's a lot of fear out there... And it's OK to be frightened... But let's all try to focus on the positive things in our lives and have faith that everything will be fine... It may be completely different... But it will be fine.
One moment, one minute, one hour, one day at a time... You can do it!

When some facts seem brutality in the eyes of some humans , different type of songs taking places.
|
Cats, not so different from man, when he uses his wits and purr to get his way. When those fail...he resorts to bombs.

Writing became therapeutic for me and it looks like its bocoming therapeutic for others.
If i can change someone’s life by sharing my story through poet then i believe we can all make a difference.”

At the end of the day, all the thinking in the world isn’t enough to foresee all the possibilities. To love is to have faith; to take a chance. And we all have different risk tolerances …

The concept of power, defined entirely by context, has so many different meanings that can exponentially multiply, as well as, divide.

"People of different wishes , same prayers to God and living in the same cruel World"
By Alfonso Warally Ngengethe Mussabwa Chris

If mankind is to survive and flourish, it must rid itself of petty hatreds, whether racial, ethnic, cultural, or political, and realize that through the multitude of diversity and difference, a reservoir of commonality is far greater than all the conflicts we endure.
