if ever ~

If ever there comes a day that I give up this life

I would never do it for selfishness or unreasonable emptiness

… I would give it for the sake of love.

 

If I ever think I am not loved or just felt worthless,

all I have to do is think of

    someone - a friend or family

        who truly cares, and then everything

   comes in perspective.

 

If ever I felt that I did nothing wrong

And then everything keeps falling apart

I just think that there will always be

-- a probable reasons on why things happen

I should not worry too much

because I know worrying takes too much

…energy and much of your time…

so why not let time slide and be patient

life is full of possibilities

it comes as it goes

be free from your own chains

and just live

for the betterment

     of who you are as a person…

I`m sorry I just now read your great work...It`s really so full of hope and energy, of creativeness and new beginning! I like to read it again, it makes me fresh. It`s really wise, all your words are as if taken from the eastern philosophy, they sound in perfect way in my mind. I love this attitude to life, even everyone has its hardships, hard decisions ,cross-ways. But we are all humans, and have to keep ourselves strong, we are with high values and precious for God. I love these verses:

so why not let time slide and be patient
life is full of possibilities
it comes as it goes
be free from your own chains

Do not go against the water, current produced by its force can be too disastrous; dive and dance with its waves and you will be able to understand its moves...

[Pax]

Thank you, that means alot from a dear friend... I remember very well the tagalog poem I wrote awhile back, the one you asked me about, title "Paglakbay"...
I quote:
Mga paa at mga kamay
Sana ay nabigyan ko ng konting panahon
Para malugod kong naintindihan
Bawat hampas, bawat suntok ng alon...
hay.... salamat Belle, nang marami...

My dear Cancerian Friend, Pax...I love how you emotes in your poems...the expression of Art...you can only live for yourself...not saying to be selfish...but the responsibility to makes ourselves happy and those that we care, as well. A lovely write.

[Pax]

big smiles here, thank you so much my friend.

to tell you honestly my friend as it is shown in my past writes, deeps inside I am a sad person, who like the poem's intent -- try and keeps trying to think positive, or I hold on into that thought, and this site truly helps me to feel that I am not truly alone in this feeling. And I am always grateful to my friends here... Thank you very much...

[Everett DeValle]

You express your admiration well and the sorrow, I'm sure, many feel including myself from your current to your past write. You are very welcome, Pax...it's always a pleasure. ~Ev

Your profound thoughts flow deeply into our existence.... our experiences... You speak of love... of life.. of endless possibilities... Yes.. growing as a person filled with a sense of being alive. So well voiced, my friend.

[Pax]

thank you so much my friend, I am glad you said that... and I'll hold into that senses...

[Marie]

You should always take positive action, not let negative thinking drain your energy.

[Pax]

Thank so much Marie. Sometimes negative thinking just slips and drain my energy worrying too much... but as much as possible, I will not sink into it too much... I am grateful always for sharing you great insights my friend...

[gabrielle]

If we worry too much f the things we do not have control of, we'll die young. There's nothing wrong when we worry for it means that we are concerned of what comes ahead but worrying to the point of forgetting how to enjoy life is one thing that we should avoid. positive thinking brings good vibes!

[Pax]

ahh, yest, good vibes, that is why I am hoping the everything will turn out fine... thanks for sharing such insight my good friend Gab...
