    I have simply acclimated myself to not knowing
    and found some joy in believing that no one else knows either

    Right! Anyone who thinks they really know what's going on at this stage of the human race is just plain old bullshitting.


    Billy Elliot (Movie):

    Billy: I think I'm scared, Dad.
    Dad: That's okay, son. We're all scared.
    Billy: Well... if I don't like it, can I still come back?

    Dad: Are you kidding? We've let out your room....

    I went to my mother
    I need answers please
    She barely turned her head
    'Maybe so, just not from me"

    I went to my father
    Will you give me answers
    "I've never given you anything
    so why start now" he sneers

    I went to church
    Can you tell me the truth?
    "yes, you have been unwelcome here
    since you outgrew your youth"

    The ocean always comforts
    so I went to the sea
    Have you any answers?
    She said "You are what you seek"

    I am my own answer?
    I asked with a start
    She said "It has been so all along
    search deep inside your heart"

    But my heart is empty
    I cried with regret
    "Not so, everything is there daughter
    do not give up yet"

    one of the best poems I've ever read... it helps the empty, at times broken soul... thank you

    i'm just finding this today
    i don't know what brought me here
    but i'm glad something did
    to find your words
    and find comfort
    in knowing we are not alone

    thank you for writing that
    it means so much

    peace and happy holidays
    may the oceans continue to speak to you
    and help you find your truth

    peace,
    jo
    peace,
