Sunshine after Darkness (poem) by Chanti Niven on AuthorsDen

Reviewed on April 8, 2005

wise ...
Peace is not that elusive state to be pursued,
it is something entered into even in the midst of chaos
by stilling the mind and opening the heart
to the greatest healer of them all - Love.

Amazing from start to finish ...

Quite insightful meanderings. This is deeply introspective, and holds much meaning for me. And wrong though it may be to allow our feelings and emotions to govern our choices "completely," still... we should never make choices without "feeling," and solely based on logic. For as we all know, logic and love are worlds apart. Your writing makes me think ... and feel; and that is as it should be. -- Jeff

Hello Chanti dear. I was in a constant state of perpetual darkness, for many, many years. I never knew what love meant, even though I had heard the word used many times over. but now my temptuous storm has passed, and I have entered into peace, with all of my friends here. Chanit dear, this poem speaks out to me, and is the best advice I could ever get. The authors here at AD, have given me this advice over, and over again, and I am trying really hard to accept the things I cannot change, and have the courage to change the things I can, and I wish That God, through His Son Jesus, will help me to gain the wisdom, to know the difference. This is a very decent write Chanti, thnx for the advice. May the Lord Jesus bless you, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little sister, Barbie

Actually, one can better see the stars
when there is no other surrounding light.

It is true that we must all learn to love ourselves.

Look not to the past or future ... Be Here Now!

Love & Light,
Joseph

A very wise and strong message. We need to face the direction in which we walk, otherwise we'll never know when we reach our destination!
