Dear Debby, Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Birth into this existence is a stage within a much larger circuit of which we cannot comprehend the extent whitout the help of the spirit which procreates this enormous system. We have first to emerge into the world of the spirit which is not of the domain of sociology, nor of any science, for that matter. Let us first feel and understand the power of love which streams constantly in the universe and can open doors unknown to us. Love to all of you Emile

I wrote a poem about a newborn entitled Sheer Brilliance. With new life I'm sure comes fresh hope, energy and the ability to build upon what already exists with innovation and creativity. All of human potential lies within the nascent mind, heart, body and soul of this new child. My love and congratulations to you and your family on the arrival of this beautiful gift. K xx

it's going to take many many more generations to clean up this mess ... hopefully, mankind will survive itself ...

nicely penned, Debby ...

CONGRATULATIONS.
It is always good to see new life.
I- like you- hope she and other children don't have to inherit our mistakes.

Congratulations!!!! Such wonderful news to share and I pray that mother and daughter are doing just fine. Sociology, an every changing study and well worth the time and effort it takes. Enjoy that baby girl and shower her with lots of love, hugs and kisses....

Be always safe,

An interesting intriguing composition... "multiply" sings to learn.

The kids of this season are the spring of our future, because they will know our history, will learn from our mistakes, and will build their lives wisely.

Congratulations!

well said

intensly profound thinking--great question in the final verse

Debby,

Excellent thoughts here. I'd like to say, I believe each generation questions their offspring's future. What we see as a mess today, is nothing compared to what human's endured hundreds of years ago. Look at it this way, WWII led to the death of 55 million people and yet here we are, still building, still dreaming, still hurling around the Sun. Cheer up. Your granddaughter will do just fine.

Congratulations. Celebrate her life and your genetic immortality.

National Children's Day in Brazil today - little ones were here today, one particularly, as bright as a button, full of love, fun and inquiry, and surrounded by such ---> and on we go! Happy grandparent day to Debby, To Life! xx

I'm optimistic that they will lead better lives. My grandparents were free to chose their path, but ended up wage slaves after many failed businesses and much deprivation during the Great Depression and WW II.

Today's global communication loads our senses with the worst instantly. We haven't learned to put things in perspective yet.

Better times will come. [If we can get a handle on world population]

Wow, definately a thinking poem that will wander around in my mind for a few days as I try to contemplate all the ideas contained and offered to us by the author. Well done...
