Re: Please collaborate...."what other people are thinking"
i flunked mind reading 101...
i'm always wrong and that's no fun...
peace exists... when my mind is still...
the mind is a tool... to use as one will...
we should be careful of the thoughts we think...
they can make us soar... or make us sink...
for thoughts have power... don't you see...
they are coming attractions... of things to be...
so mind your thoughts... and watch them well...
and let your thoughts... on beauty dwell...
for if you allow... the thoughts of hate...
then gloom and doom shall be your fate...
i must allow others the right to be wrong...
it gives me peace... that makes me strong...
there is only one... that i must master...
lest my life end up... a total disaster...
i've probably shot your poem to hell...
with all these feelings... how's one to tell...
from whence do these feeling originate anyhow...
which should one keep... and which not to allow...
feelings... to shout... to yell... to scream...
feelings of deceit... with an angelic screen...
feelings that help... and feeling so mean...
feelings of beuty... and feeling obscene...
feelings...??? what good are they anyway...
they are usually self-centered and selfish...
if we put the welfare of others first...
most of these feelings will just go away...
so... use what you can...
and throw away the rest...
you asked for feelings...
and i gave it my best...
lol...
;-)
i have one particular feeling that all is good... and...
"it's a wonderful day in the neighborhood"...
what others think... is beyond my control...
and i need it not... for peace in my soul...
lol...
