Each of us has it within ourselves to be great [or not]. How we choose to proceed is determined by our fears and our strengths, and our ability to handle each step in our journey.

Insightful poem from an enlightened heart.

This is very well intentioned and has a great message to do a self reflection now and then to discover our own universal center. Lovley Susan.

Susan,these words carry a time tested truth and wisdom,thanks for sharing them,some days i believe them others i wonder about in a daze,but those days seem to be less,to trust in things greater than ourselves is the key along with hope

You're right, the heart of the matter and also I think the hardest part of life is transitioning. Something I've allways been fearful of
yet every time I suffer it I can feel myself awakening even more.
This is very special to me. Such a wise and beautiful poem,thank
you for this, Love, Pierre

Going from "fear to fearless" - transitioning - Something we are always in process with, but after 25 years with my art and life I find it hard and somehow still fear inadequacies, which can only be surmounted by performance. So it is on & on & keep on...
But I like you as a poet, you don't just write the normal pulp romance crap... you make us think & feel
(just lucked out tonite on finding you at the head of the poetry column...)
