FINALLY IT'S FRIDAY"FEED YOUR STARVING SOUL SOME POETRY"

Life Is A Privilege


by Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Life is a privilege. Its youthful days
Shine with the radiance of continuous Mays.
To live, to breathe, to wonder and desire,
To feed with dreams the heart’s perpetual fire,
To thrill with virtuous passions, and to glow
With great ambitions – in one hour to know
The depths and heights of feeling – God! in truth,
How beautiful, how beautiful is youth!
Life is a privilege. Like some rare rose
The mysteries of the human mind unclose.
What marvels lie in the earth, and air, and sea!
What stores of knowledge wait our opening key!
What sunny roads of happiness lead out
Beyond the realms of indolence and doubt!
And what large pleasures smile upon and bless
The busy avenues of usefulness!
Life is a privilege. Thought the noontide fades
And shadows fall along the winding glades,
Though joy-blooms wither in the autumn air,
Yet the sweet scent of sympathy is there.
Pale sorrow leads us closer to our kind,
And in the serious hours of life we find
Depths in the souls of men which lend new worth
And majesty to this brief span of earth.
Life is a privilege. If some sad fate
Sends us alone to seek the exit gate,
If men forsake us and as shadows fall,
Still does the supreme privilege of all
Come in that reaching upward of the soul
To find the welcoming Presence at the goal,
And in the Knowledge that our feet have trod
Paths that led from, and must wind back, to God.

Do Not Stand At My Grave And Weep

I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.

JUST PRETEND

 At a young age we are introduced to what is right and what is considered wrong through childrens books and Disney movies. We are shown that being bad no matter the situation will lead to a negative outcome. This is instilled to our kids to steer them away from the wrong path and to make sure they never cross the line. Kids enjoy role playing from time to time by acting out and using their imagination to pretend to be the baddie from movies and games they watch and play. Some people, believe that the temptation might lead to negative lifestyle choices if the kids play the roles of the darker side. Kids aren't adults they only know what is fun is not real and it's only for pretend but it's the pedantic adult who puts too much emphasis on the role playing child and makes judgements of the innocence.
