At one time or another in life, we all hit this place, Tony.....you are a warm, loving person, deserving of a good life....You're got lots of friends in this den who care about you, my friend....I'm one of them!

Tony, I agree with Joyce, excellent intro.....you can't be alone if poems like this can be created and friends respond! ~ Morgan

I AM DRAWN TO YOUR INTRODUCTION; '...WHEN A PERSON REMAINS ALONE, DROWNING AT SEA IS ALWAYS AN OPTION...' BUT WHAT IF...A PERSON KNOWS, THEY ARE NEVER ALONE, TONY? WHAT THEN? WHAT IF A PERSON COMES TO THE REALIZATION THAT GOD NEVER ALLOWS ANYTHING FOR OUR HURT, BUT FOR OUR 'GROWTH'? WHAT IF A PERSON TAKES THAT 'ROCK' THAT HAS BEEN THROWN INTO THEIR PATHWAY AND USES IT FOR A 'STEPPING STONE', INSTEAD OF A 'SUMBLING BLOCK'? WHAT IF, IN SPITE OF ALL...ONE KEEPS THEIR EYES ON THE 'CAPTAIN' OF THEIR SOULS?...WELL, THEN, THERE IS NO WAY THEY CAN GET LOST AT SEA FOR THEY ARE 'SAFE' IN 'HIS' ARMS! TONY, PLEASE READ 'MY CAPTAIN' AND 'SHALL I STAND ALONE'?(DO NOT REVIEW-JUST READ). THIS JOURNEY IS NOT EASY, BUT WITH CHRIST, WE HAVE SOMEONE TO HOLD ON TO AND, NO MATTER WHAT THE ENEMY TRIES TO MAKE YOU BELIEVE, WE ARE...NEVER ALONE! WE LOVE YOU, TONY, AND REMEMBER THE WORD OF GOD, '...YOU HAVE A FRIEND WHO STICKS CLOSER THAN A BROTHER...'! THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS & FAITH...

Thanks for these poems, so lovely, so consoling so moderately written for times like these days bring us.
Fights loneliness, keeps depressions at bay, just getting into your write.

To be found, one must be lost, so consider yourself found...You are an amazingly loving man, your light shines brightly, do not allow negativity to take over your life. Smile and fill your heart with love and joy..

Peace, love and light,
Amber

MAY GOD HELP YOU, TONY!!!!!!!!!!!! Liana Margiva

I have been there, Tony. I am glad I did not give up. Be encouraged by your friends' good wishes (including mine). Love and peace to you,

Tony, please understand that we all, myself included, are lost.
Be comforted and know that even so, we are guided. You are not alone, and you have friends.
Blessings,
Christine

You are not lost, Tony, only adrift
a little while and you will sail back to shore
in command of your spirit.

One day at a time, my friend. The sea has good currents too, ya know.

You never know what the tides will bring in..~seek and you shall find~

I like what George said, it is a rightous statement & says a great deal in a few words...Ed

Life is like the sea you never know what each day may bring.
