Remember how superior you think you and your faults are;
when the gift you have brought to the lives of others
is hell and misery
and you find yourself
more forsaken,
more estranged.
Perhaps,
humility,
you will then find,
belongs to you,
OR SHOULD!!!

everything matters, in the well worn stories, was not Judas necessary to Jesus' mission? without betrayal, would the sacrifice have been possible, to stir from dreams or a stupor, pleasure has limits without pain, no plants grow without rain, some things must first freeze to be able to emerge, some pine trees must be burned for their seeds, there is something in the design where fight strengthens form, hugs cannot inspire always like a punch, the duality or the yin and yang have a third component as best I can spell it, shen, but not an averaging of the two sides but, rather,the line where those two things find a resolve you can write in short works something and in the present that feels these are your feelings, authentic and in the present, its you, without apology, resolved, firm and true to your beliefs, never feels arrogant and is willing to be vulnerable...I had to stop and just recheck my hold on humility as sometimes I feels humility as I feel it has a weakness side to it, yet, because you put in the way you do, I like the humility you approach, by putting out there good and bad, with conviction yet, it is humbly offered but still strong

Often, it is found, those who would stoop to hurt us
are at best, more broken than those whom they would wound
so willfully and with gleeful abandon until it is them that falls
Then, they are penitant overflowing with apologies and new found humility
begging for forgiveness and one last chance to prove their kindness
Beware the sow's ear dressed in silks and spewing honeyed words
